    Engine questions (I need a new one)

    Hey everyone, Looking for advice and answers to some questions I have on replacing my 289 (has a minor self-induced cracked block): I know there are different types of blocks I've read about on different threads (talking about the 302 specifically), be it a Boss block - Sportsman -...

    Ebay fiasco/dispute

    Looks like they are pretty much into high-turnover numbers by their feedback ratings. Sellers like that are great if everything goes like clock-work, but if there are any bumps in the road, they will screw up. They've had 10 negative feedbacks in the last month... but that gets lost in their...

    Failed NC State Inspection - OBD

    I belive it was adopted county by county... but is state wide now. Of course you could just drive a classic Mustang and not have to worry about the inspections period (including the visual). :D Best of luck to ya, Scott

    302 BOSS BLOCK VS MAN O WAR

    Just to make sure I understand I've read the entire thread and just want to make sure I understand: Most are saying the 302 Boss Crate engine is a bad design (stroked to a 347)? It's out of my budget, but I have been looking at it the last couple of days as I am in the market for a crate...

    X pipe or H pipe

    There are some good threads on this site talking about this topic... Just like mufflers, I think it comes down to personal taste (i.e. magnaflows vs. flowmasters). Personally, I have an X - Pipe, but my setup isn't anywhere near agressive enough to where either an X or H pipe would make a...

    67/68 stance

    Mine is still a little off, but it has been lowered quite a bit: The front is still a little too high for matching the rear... but as you can see, I all ready cut the springs a bit. I haven't done the Shelby drop yet though... On the rear, I've got the Maier 4 1/2 leaf springs...

    Ok folks, my wife brought a new baby into this world 16 weeks ago and my Mustang has been untouched in the garage ever since. That is almost four months... should I manually prime my engine before turning it over? If so, how do I do that? I had just changed the oil and filter litterly the...

    Help w/ timing marks on 66 289

    I believe it only goes to ~ 16 degrees on the balancer. The 30 + degrees is your total timing which takes into account what value has been selected in your distributor (you add your initial timing to this value and that gives you your total timing). I recently had to pull my balancer and...

    Help instyalling oil pressure gauge

    This is exactly what I did... keep in mind that if you have power steering, it is going to be a PITA to get the T fitting and the original oil pressure sending unit extension to fit properly (not that much room). Scott

    Anybody else itching to put in a T56?

    I remember reading that article when it first came out (don't have a subscription anymore). There was still a lot of modification required... not a simple install. I am almost positive they had to cut the tunnel. But can you imagine what life would be like after this install? 2,000 RPM's @...
