Check the air inlet hose into the manifold. They crack and cause unmetered air to get into the engine making it a real dog. You can find them online fairly inexpensively.

Nothing wrong with it, runs great in fact. That being said, it is a pig!

Now come the mods to free up a little power, starting with the fan, manual hubs and maybe the intake. Maybe see if bumping up the timing helps a bit.

Just happy its going, will post some pics over the weekend, thanks all for the help!

A brand new, off the line 3.0 3vze was a slow bogged down mess. Welcome to the 3.0 Slow....
