    Memory has failed

    Maybe it was not bolted down before? If that's the case, and you already bolted on the intake and don't want to get out the tap set, then you can get some of those nylon push in holders from the help section at Autozone, you know the ones that hold the bumper and interior parts on.

    DIFFERENCES BETWEEN 289 AND 302 ??

    You could BUT, the shorter rods would reduce your compression ratio and you would lose power, unless your goal is to reduce compression??? TBO, you can do a whole lot with these little motors, I put chevy 5.7 rods in a 289 to make a long rod motor to see for myself if it had any advantages. It...

    Learned about Fram orange can of death

    I'm with you but did not know that Motorcraft Synthetic Blend was cheaper. I have used Valvoline for years and all my engines stay clean looking.

    86 dizzy on a carb set up???

    Sure, I had one that way for a while. Just use the bottom 3 wires. Bottom one goes to ground, 2nd goes msd or neg on coil and 3rd is 12V switched. You can also use a GM module and remote mount it if you want.

    Underdrive Pulley Question

    I have used other UPR stuff and liked it, can't say on the pulleys but it seems like a wise choice.

    s/c for 351 setup in a fox

    Pardon my ignorance. Why wouldnt an average 5.0 supercharger work? Seems like you would only need a longer belt at most. The heads are the same so the mount points "should" be the same.

    Far from perfect

    The GM style HEI is ugly but it is one of the best distributors ever made. DUI and many others get 9000 rpm's out of them. Real easy to adjust the advance with the springs on top also. I have a billet one with MSD stuff but gotta get rid of it because my parker intake and N2O won't clear well...

    86 gt or 92 lx?

    My Vote is the 86 GT unless it has rust issues BUT if you won't be able to get a motor any time soon, then go with the LX and 347, a tranny is a lot cheaper.

    Instrument cluster differences? Year Span?

    I have an ex drag car that came without a wiring harness. I have an unknown cluster (87-93) style that I bought on eBay a few years ago and did a dash upgrade on my 86. I wired it up in the 86 so I would just have lights, brights and blinkers. On my 91, I bought a 91 harness for it and the...

    aod build

    The internals will hold up well to average abuse (stay out of OD), the input shaft is usually first to go when you start building power. If you want advice as well as awesome write ups on modding an AOD look up SilverFox. He is a mod on the corral and has a lot of his work on click click racing...
