Welcome
I have read that you can get some extra HP with some mods but it's not really worth the money or hassle to do on that 3.0.The search feature has a lot of topics on this and is vary helpful

rickybobby3022

well what would be worth doing to it

Ive got a 3.0 and have had no problems with it other then just normal maint. But after reading on this forum for a while and others also, I think the only mod Im going to do to mine is weld a trailer hitch to the front of it so it will be easier to drag...regards...Rick

also i am having trouble with geting the back windo to roll down by itsself from inside the yota it goes down a inch then stops and motor spends and nothing happens it does however go up on its own any idea what it is

In my opinion nothing.....just start saving all the money you can to buy a 3.4, and when the 3.0 blows up do a swap then you'll have all the power you need
If you want to know what will be worth doing to it do a search there is thousands of threads on that topic....good luck and take care

rickybobby3022

well i may end up riceing it out

rickybobby3022

ok i may do that whats the price on a 3.4

ya...just save up and buy a 3.4 and do the swap..thats your best bang for your buck...

headers and like maybe a 2.5" or 2.25"in exhaust would be better than a 3in....

if you want more pep around town you could regear again..go to 5.29's..it'll be REALLY peppy around town..but at about 75-80 its gonna be SCREAMIN rpm wise..

you expect too much out of the 3.0..it wasnt built for horsepower..

get a supercharged 3.4... check craigslist and junkyards for motors..and if you save up enough money..you could get a high mileage one cheap...rebuild it..throw some cams in it (if they make cams for the 3.4...idk i dont own one) bore it like .030...electric fan..if you have an automatic throw that hunk a junk in the trash and get a good 5speed..

i have 4.88 in it now so it does 3000 at 70 im used to a 01 ford ranger w a 4.0 so and a 78 f150 with a 460 so maby its me but i think i will save up for the 3.4 and have it supercharged or may get a turbo cam other stuff

rickybobby3022

and i have the 5 speed

rickybobby3022

and if i get a motor ima wana do it right and get a new one

camo31_10.50

well a new 3.4 will cost you out the ass...you said you only had 800..thats why i said get a used one and rebuild it the way you want..would be cheaper

rickybobby3022

well thats right now im bout to come into more thx to military bonus in bout a year

The 3.0 works fine for alot of people ut if your one of those that absolutely
have more power then dont do anything to the 3.0 just save up and swap a 3.4 or something bigger and better.

rickybobby3022
