    Going for a fox body tranny swap

    You will have some issues with this. The SN95's had a slightly different computer and wire harness so i dont think a Fox ECU will plug into it. Also the SN95's use an electric speed sensor if I remember right and the Fox's have a mechanical pick-up for the speed-o I'm sure there is a...

    bbk ssi intake: hype or not?

    Yes stupid bottom valley cover plate was on right. The BBK doesnt really have a PCV baffle. It has a plate that you screw on that covers the entire lifter valley and it leaves a small gap with back edge of block for the PCV to breath thru. The center area of the upper had some SERIOUS casting...

    Alternator Pulley

    you're fine make sure you have pulley to alternator clearance. sometimes Fox pulleys need a small washer/spacer for pulley clearance on 3G's

    Manual Steering Conversion - Slew o' questions

    I just installed a flaming river rack on mine. Cost was right at $500 for all the parts you need like tie rod ends and bushings and steering shaft. You can look in junk yards for a manual rack on a fox body Ford. There was some early 80's mid size sedan that you can get them off. You...

    NEW BBK SSI on our 347

    I had one of those once. It SUCKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry. watch out for sucking up oil thru PCV due to BBK's strange baffle or lack of baffle i guess and BBK said they do make a spacer Its just not listed on any of the web sites. Call them for a part number

    How much hp will a stock 5.0 block handle

    I have a friend that is making 800rwhp on blown DSS 347 on stock block, but we both know its living on borrowed time. Most people say do not exceed 400-450rwhp on stock 302 block if you want it to last. beyond that and its a ticking bomb

    retrofit hyd/roller lifter in 351w ????

    It will be real easy to tell if it is roller motor. It will s/n that starts with F4 and will have holes in the valley to screw down the holddown spider. I even re-used my spider and dog bones from my original 302 I paid a little extra for my roller cam motor. Its one of the 6 up / half...

    351w build up questions

    need better heads 351's need a LOT of air at upper rpm's save up for some Canfield 190's or AFR 185's or RHS 200's and get a custom ground cam. get a Vic Jr. intake and 650-750 carb and long tube headers without those upper rpm heads, cam and intake its still nothing but a truck engine

    94-95 COBRA INTAKE ON 347 WOULD IT WORK???

    NO it will NOT work. 347 needs a LOT of air at 5,000-6,000 rpm You need a TrickFlow R or Holley Sys II intake to feed the cubes of 347ci. Dont forget to install 1 3/4 LT's so it can breathe out too. or you'll be wondering why your power band stopped at 5,000 rpm on the dyno.

    Need to drop motor 3/4 - 1"

    The vert mounts are slightly stronger but do not drop the engine any. I've also heard that their extra strength is just a myth trust me I looked all over the place when going this 351W swap and the HP solid drop mounts are the only thing that truely "drop" the engine Feel for ya, hood...
