I'm rebuilding a 83 fox GT hatch pretty much from scratch. We have a old school, built in the 80's, a real Clevor. 1980 block with huge heads and a 65 Shelby 4v intake to fit the Cleveland heads. It was left hidden in a 64 F250 for safe keeping. The original owner said he paid like $10,000 to...

Hey everyone, I have an aftermarket crane came and lifters and I’m swapping them both out. ( 65 Mustang with a 71 302) Car has some sort of aftermarket 1.6 roller rockers and looks like upgraded valve springs. I’m keeping springs and roller rockers. Has currently 6.750 length pushrods...

This is my first post.. hopefully people can be patient with me. I have not found a post guide/rule section so I guess this is trial by fire. long story short, I have a Ford ranger with a 98 302 EFI in it (no, I did not do the swap myself ☹️). It’s not making the power that I’m looking for. I’m...

Hey everyone, This doesn’t sound good. Recently picked this car up and have now noticed it’s got a loud knock coming from what sounds like the top center. The motor was rebuilt not too long ago, has some sort of cam, 1.6 roller rockers. It kind of goes away when revving it up. Here is the video

I'm selling all parts -- all new -- for a 408 small block Ford build, plus some tools and Fox Mustang chassis parts, listed in the appropriate classifieds sections. I bought all of these parts new in late 2002 to early 2003, had the block and crank machined at Arlington Machine Shop, assembled...

Yo need some insight on a issue my fox has had for a bit. When I cold start I have a rough/surging idle until it fully warm ups. To find the issue I would unplug sensors one by one and if there was a change without it plugged in I assumed it was working when plugged in. When I unplug the maf no...

Recently my car had died and I spent forever trying to figure out what the issue was. I finally had narrowed it down to a bad PIP sensor so I replaced my whole distributor. The car now idles super smooth and has no issues until 2000 rpm when it starts to buck and hesitate. It almost feels like a...

I have a 88 Mustang GT 5 speed. with heads cam and intake. All being run by a Pro M coil on plug system. Its been running great for over a year. I started having intermittent starting issues and about a week later it wouldn't start. after running a few test I discovered it will start with...

Hi everyone I just finished changing few things in my mustang 1969 that came with original 302. So everything is good but the only thing I’m concerned about is temperature gauge showing close to H. It’s not going all the way up to H and there’s not smoke or what so ever. Is this normal or...

I have spent the past few months rebuilding my 302. I finally got it to run but my oil pressure gauge read 0. At first thought it was the guage so I replaced sender and guage cluster, still nothing. Today I put a mechanical gauge on and primed the oil pump with a drill (counterclockwise) and...

I recently bought a 1996 Ford mustang GT off of a guy, It has a 77' F150 302 5.0 Motor in it ( I know I Know ) My battey has been dead the whole time I've tried to start the car, we went and had the battery tested and it was fine!, well then i got to reading that the regulator could be bad in...

Bought my first Fox body 1985 Notchback 5.0(Carb Convertion 1989 motor) i want to build something for street/strip use 12s seconds would be great No, I DONT WANT TO LS SWAP IT

to start idk if I’m in the right place lol I have a 1982 mustang gt that has a oil leak under the valve covers but I don’t think that it’s leaking from the covers I will show two pictures so it will be easier to understand, I’m going to buy some oil dye so I can better understand where it’s...

I was curious about the people that have done a 5 speed v8 swap in a ranger. I have a 2002 regular cab short bed that's getting a 302 5 speed. Mine was an automatic so I need pedals and my question is which pedals? Do I modify mustang pedals so I can run a cable or get the ranger pedals and use...

Hi everyone, I’m new here so if I’m formatting my post wrong or anything just let me know. Recently I picked up my first ever project car, a 1983 GLX with a 5.0 HO. I had to fix an oil leak between the intake and the block so I had to pull the distributor to change the gasket. When I did that I...

Hello. I have a problem that nobody can seem to solve. I’m hoping maybe someone here might have some info. I’ve got a 68 mustang - currently it has a carbureted 5.0 in it. I have low vacuum, it fluctuates between 13 and 15 at idle, and idles poorly. Last year I set out to fix it, this is what...

Hey all, I’ve been working on swapping in a 302 from a 79 f150 that was originally bolted to a 4 speed manual into my 81 mustang. I also picked up a 68 c4 that’s been rebuilt, and bought the 157 tooth flexplate along with a 24 spline torque converter from Hughes. But when I went to put it all...

For sale is a Edelbrock Victor EFI intake, pt # 2945, intake for sale. I bought used but appears to be in good condition. SOLD.

good day, I have a quick question i was not able to find anything on easily or quickly so it is likely a stupid one but i want to be careful and ask. I have a stock 302 with 105xxx miles on it. i'm doing a basic rebuild on it with rings and bearings. when i went to put the rings on the...
