it'd be more of a step sideways then an upgrade |

oh, ok. thanx for your friendly advice. question though, what if you were to swap the servos over? or is it a total re-programe thing?

Old thread but
If going to 75mm is really a sideways step wtf did ford bother going from 64 to 70mm for the 4l? And then 72mm in the territory... I really don't think going to 75mm is that big a deal but you would want cams to make the most of it. There would be little to no benefit on a standard engine.
