    302/Trans.?

    that is just rediculous to leave the trans in the car dude. next time, remove the 6 extra bolts that are EASY to get to and remove as a combo.

    302 to a 331 ?

    its easier and sometimes cheaper just to buy an already built stroker bottom end. i got my 347 shortblock built by woody at fordstrokers.com. if yor gonna do a blown 331 or 347, you should prolly buy a block that can handle the power and thats gonna run you almost 2k extra. IMO if you wanna go...

    Trick Flow Top End Kit Suggestions..?

    No you wont need a tune as long as the maf is calibrated to whatever injectors you have. I got a tune like a year after and didnt benefit from it at all. A/f was good and he was only able to squeeze 6 more hp out of the tune. 400 bucks wasted! If you have dle problems or some other crap a tune...

    Need advice/tips

    After reading the rest of the thread, my advice is for you to get some help becuase it is your DD. The job is easy and natural for some people but if you rely on this car for a dd, you may get your hands in too deep and may cost you more money and down time. What kind of prior major work have...

    Need advice/tips

    yeah, for you or me maybe but it doesnt sound like this guy has any experience. Op, unless you know what your doing you may want to have someone else do the job becuase it will take at least several days to figure out it out. The headgasket job itself is gonna cost you somewhere around 5...

    Procharger Questions, Please Help
