    Lifter noise

    A 289 has pressed in studs, the one thats tapping might have pulled out a little. Take the rocker off and measure the height then readjust the rocker, if it taps again, measure again as it probably pulled out some more.

    Timing Trouble

    I agree with D Hearne, I had a few stock balancers slip, sometimes you cant see it but the timing is way off, get a new balencer for that 331 stroker and through that stock one in the trash, It will run better and smoother, when the engine has the right balance and timing, your throttle...

    Headlight question

The headlight switch is also a problem as it has a breaker built in and if you draw to much currant it clicks off and on, it was put there to prevent a wiring fire as early stangs have poor wiring, The breaker might be weak as now you...

Then I used a 86-93 blower belt lower pulley that...
