    3500 stall converter

    Hi guys, just got a question. I'm looking to buy an 83 mustang and the guy says it's got a c-4 full manual with a 3500rpm converter, 8.8 rear end with 4.10 gears. The car is about 1 1/2 hours away and I'm wondering if I can drive it back or do I need to get a trailer. Dont have any...

    .060 OVER ON 351W

    Thanks for the opinion on the bore, but as for the roller running roller engine I'm sure I could find one. The only thing with that is I was gonna stroke it and by the time I buy the engine and have machine work done I'll be at the price. I don't want to use just a stock 351 shortblock or engine.

    .060 OVER ON 351W

    .060 over isn't too much? How much boring can the 351 windsor's handle?

    .060 OVER ON 351W

    I found a 1969 351w that's had all the machining done and clearanced for a stroker. Hasn't been used since the machining and I can pick it up for around $550. I'm just unsure of the .060 overbore. Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

    forgot to mention I have a carbuerated motor, so should I just grab a distributor from a carbuerated 351W or buy an aftermarket distributor for a carbed motor?

    THE PROBABLY ALREADY ANSWERED 351W QUESTIONS

    Swap,Dont Swap,Engine combo?????

    I KINDA AGREE WITH ANOTHERSTANGFAN, IT ALL DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU REALLY WANT. PERSONALLY I WOULD GO WITH A 351W, IF I COULD DO IT OVER AGAIN. IF YOUR NOT GONNA USE THE 351W BLOCK FOR THE EXTRA HP IT WILL HOLD, THEN DON'T BOTHER. BUT IF YOU WERE GONNA GO FOR 500HP OR MORE THEN I WOULD GO...

    street setup

    You can tell the difference between the GT40 and GT40P by the markings on the end of the head. The GT40 has 3 bars and also has the casting GT on the corner and the GT40P has 4 bars on the end of the head and has GTP casted on it. From what I've read the GT40P...

    STROKER BALANCING QUESTION

    So I'm thinking about buying a stroker shortblock and was wondering is there an advantage or disadvantage of having it balanced internally or externally? Either way the assembly has to be balanced to the balancer and flywheel, right? Don't know too much on the balancing...

    Battery not charging/not starting/car shutting off ... help...

    Have you had the alternater tested yet? Probably the first place I'd start. You can either take it in, or the way I usually do it is get the car started again if possible then take the positive cable off the battery. If it dies the alternator is bad. Once the car gets started it runs off the...

    which headers will work

    I thought 84 was the first year for dual exhaust? Also from the experience I had trying to put a H-pipe from an 86-93 onto the older ones, the hangers on the H-Pipe that slide into the brackets attached to the tranny sit at different angles. I tried putting one on my 83GT and couldn't figure...

    WHICH HEADS

    I don't know which heads I want to go with yet, the TW were my 1st choice, but the only forged dome pistons I can find for them are for floating pins and I don't want to buy another set of rods.

    86 GT roller rocker question

    The 93 cobra rockers were 1.7. If the rockers you have are 1.7 then it will change the lift of the valves. Your stock HO cam should be around .444 lift going to the 1.7 would put it around .474 lift. The only thing you have to worry about is the 86HO engine didn't have any valve reliefs in...

    WHICH HEADS

    So, Ive decided to buy a set of aluminum heads, but now stuck on which ones. At this point my shortblock only has 1000 miles on it with speed pro hyper piston flat tops. I wanted to go to forged dome pistons, this is where it becomes a problem. At First I was thinking the Twisted Wedge...
