Upgrade exhaust header?

Upgrade exhaust header?

While doing my rebuild on my 93, We found a crack in the weld on the factory exhaust. Has anyone ran this specific exhaust header on their 4.0L? If so, any difference in the vehicle, or sound?

If not, what did yall upgrade to if yall would replace your exhaust manifold?

Asking for assistance with vacuum and connectors

I am putting my engine bay back together after rebuilding the motor, but of course me being dumb and this being my first time going this deep into a project. I forgot to take pictures.

I have a 93 with the 4.0L

I'm seeing if anyone can help me out and send me pictures of yall engine bays, so i can see how vacuum lines, sensors/connectors, ground wires etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S I am doing an AC Delete, kinda help with not needing to worry about that too much. Just trying to see what I need to cap off, where to put ground wires and connectors

Tips on what to take care of for new car

I ended up getting rid of the hybrid that was giving me issues and getting into a 2018 ford fusion sport with 71k miles on it

I was told it was certified pre-owned and picked it up for a good deal

Is there anything I should do for preventative maintenance to make this car last as long as possible

Going off the car fax report, this is what's been done in the past year/15k miles

Replace transmission or trade in car

I currently own a 2018 ford fusion hybrid with 158k miles on it, I still own a little over 10k on the car and the transmission has been making the terrible generator bearing noise for when the engine is running. I know this usually means it's going to need a transmission soon, typical costing around 6k-7k to get done.

I have been more of a mechanical car guy, liking to work on and modify, still love the sound of an engine, still owning 90s f150, mustang gt, and jeep wrangler. I say that to say that i have been looking at a ford fusion sport for like 16k. Given how much I own on the car now, KBB values my car around 2500-3500 in current condition. So I will have to roll the negative equity into the sport.

​

I come to get an opinions on if I should suck it up and dump 7k into a transmission for a car that I'm not really fond of, or take the roughly 7-8k negative equity into something I have been looking at, and can have fun with as a daily and do small modifications to.

​

I appreciate anyone's input in advance 🙂
