    de-stroking to 289?

    Why not go full roller 331 in a 289 block? Forged internals so you can zing it to the moon if you so desire.

    What do i need to do to run just my water pump and alternator?

    You can also run a classic mustang setup, but this would require relocating the alt and a traditional rotation WP. You can then use a V groove or a 6 rib belt, just much shorter.

    Engine Bay Help

    The computer does nothing since the car is carbed. The only thing that I would check is that your fuel pump works even if the computer is not plugged up. Possibly they went with a manual version or a key on hot with a relay or the stock relay. The painless switch panel will do headlights and...

    Engine Bay Help

    One that cost me 8 bucks and works fine through 6800 rpm runs. The WP is a moroso kit. About $80 vs $300 for full on electric. The other bracket is a chrome alt bracket commonly sold at auto zone. Some off the shelf belt from NAPA and voila' race car with an alternator. Had I thought about...

    Engine Bay Help

    It will be easier to take out the engine if you are going to paint. For the wiring, it is not necessary. For the dash, you dont need to take it out to get the computer wiring out. The computer is under the pass kick panel. Trace out the wires and cut them out one by one to be safe. Going to...

    Engine Bay Help

    I updated my last post please reread. I should have used at least satin instead of flat paint, however it still came out well IMO. Did it with rattle cans and the engine still in the bay. I ran most of the brake lines custom. The fronts are still stock, but the back is run down the...

    Engine Bay Help

    Like this? I wired my car all by hand using a painless wiring race car panel. What you can do is take the computer harness and pull out each wire one by one. I did that before I went totally race car stripped. Had a ton of wires out of the bay. Then move things around as you wish. Not really...

    Where did you find it for that price? We understand the summit part, but what about the original website?

    need help with stall converter

    Stalls are related to the torque of the engine, the gearing and the weight of the car. It might verywell be too much stall, might want to try it out. If you dont floor it, it wont stall to 3800. It will still creep forward, but when you gas it, your rpms will jump before the car moves...

    My 34 Ford

    read on here and you should get some Ideas. Gears will make a difference that you can feel. If it is a Speed density car, then you cant go hog wild on the heads and cam setup. For carbed or mass air, heads, cam and intake will make a world of difference. For bang for the buck, have...

    If you were building a budget drag car

    Thankfully I am one of the few that has everything. Job, House, and cars all still in tact.

    If you were building a budget drag car

    The drags are bigger than the streets. There are plenty of flooded cars in SE louisiana (where I am) and GC mississippi. May be a cheap way to crank up a race car project.

    351w questions

    Depends on the pan for the volume. Carb depends on the RPM range. 750 would be the max I would go. Mine runs 11's with a 750. 600-650 should be fine for a mild street car. Motor mounts are the same. ff

    Competition Engineering

    Same for me as EMW150. I dont remember if I have the S&W or the CE, but it was cut to fit. Instructions only explain about the 1/8 plate that goes to the floor. No assembly instructions whatsoever.

    Anybody running an AOD with 4.10s and a blower?? I gotta few ?s

    That all depends on how much the blower increases the trap speed.

    how to find out how much?

    I have been wanting a street car for sometime. There has been an ad in the paper for 2 weeks now for an 89 5.0. All it says is black, 5.0 clean condition must see. $3450 is the price listed. The car is in a rural area, so no telling what I will find. Might be a hacked carb conversion or a 4...

    New here and need advice

    Possibly it was edited after theses other posts, but the car has a 402 motor. Which would be a pushrod windsor me thinks.

    Put dizzy in wrong???I dont know

    There is debate over this. IMO as long as number one lines up properly, it will work perfrectly -from my experience.
