    Broken bolts PART 2

    Actually, the spirals are better than the square in my opinion. I have removed several head bolts with them. The thing you may not realize is you need to center drill the bolt nearly perfect. Then incrementally drill it out until there is basically threads a bit of the bolt left. Also, you...

    OIL PAN TROUBLE ! HELP?

    I assume you're trying to pull it with the engine in the car. Where is your trouble, getting it over the oil pickup? Make sure ALL the bolts are out of it if it seems stuck.

    Convert GT into LX?

    You'll have some ground effect holes to fill in on the fenders and quarters. Would make it lighter though.

    Fuel Pressure

    I feel a stock motor runs best around 32-33 psi. I would think with your combo, to try 39-40 psi vacuum off first, and then possibly work your way down, as the ECU will try to handle it after so long anyways.

    Oil Pressure gauge help

    I can't tell too well form the picture, but if that is the hole you are trying to install it in, I believe there is a 2-3 inch shaft that should stick out of it. Was the stock sending unit in that hole? If so, it's missing the extension that sticks out of the block. On mine, I even used a T...

    Labor Costs!

    I did the first four, plus put a whole rear end in in about 6 hours. Next time would be quicker no doubt, as I know wassup with the front springs now. Say 5 hours.. I'de charge $200-300 to do that.. I think $500 - $700 would be a fair price, he might find a mustang guy locally to do it for.

    Stripped rocker bolt, anything else i can try?

    Would it be easier to take the whole stud out? If you 'had' to, you could cut the stud and get a new one once it is out, to save your rocker. On Pedestal mount (which I dont THINK you have), ez out works like a breeze while heads are on, as long as you get a good straight centerdrill. I have...

    Painting Mirrors/Door Handles, Q:

    My mirrors and door handles were painted with the body, and are the best looking part of the paint job. Treat them like they were a fender or a door.

    Clutch cable problems, please help!

    I had trouble with my routing and routher on top of the motor mount, and it was great. Try that maybe. The adjustable cables are mostly junk.

    Fire damage on a motor....kinda long....need advice

    You can put the gt40's on the 86 block you had planned initially, you just need to cut valve reliefs into the pistons. If you don't want to pull the pistons and have them machined in, isky cams has a took that can do it with the pistons installed. Still check P/V clearance when through. Good luck.

    Fire damage on a motor....kinda long....need advice

    So the heads on the motor weren't gt40's? Are you saying you have a spare set of GT40s to put on it? Put valve reliefs on the pistons, and possibly use the heads. I had a fire, from a fuel rail coming lose. Had to replace o2 harness, injector harness, throttle cable, misc. other stuff that I...

    Not able to pull codes

    Wow, I just put a stock motor back in my LX, and the scanner does the same thing. I get a few click up near the engine though. It pulled codes fine before the swap, so I am hoping for a ground problem. Thanks AutoXr1
