    code 224

    Well, I figured it out. No more check engine light. Ignition Module/Control Unit. $128.98 solved the problem. Probably didn't need to buy the coil packs but now I know that the Module and the coil packs are new. I thought I would post this just in case anyone ever gets a code 224.

    overcoming problems

    It seems to be one thing after another. I put Hedman shorty headers on my car. First I find out I need to change the original collectors on my exhaust to a 4" collector and a bigger pipe. Then I find out the oil dipstick dont fit like it did originally. So many mods need to be made. This is...

    Any idea what eng. this is ????

    That front timing cover still has me confused. Does anyone know what the firing order was for the 289 hi-po. Maybe I had just better find the #'s on the block!!!!! Dark knight, the engine looks to small for a 351 I think. Maybe not?

    Any idea what eng. this is ????

    Well it's a Mallory. I ordered the parts from discount and it was $65. Hell of a price for a tune up.........I do have a question though. With a Mallory distributor, it shouldn't change the firing order should it? Firing order should be 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8. According to there order it's...

    Any idea what eng. this is ????

    PoliceInterceptor, I think your right there. Maybe a Mallory, it's a two point setup. One has been taken off at the present time. And like you said there's no vac advance. Any idea's what it might be????

    Any idea what eng. this is ????

    When I pulled the valve covers off, the heads say 302 on them. Someone put on a torker 302 intake and a edlebrock carb. The casting #'s would be under the intake right???? The part that has me confused is the small distributor cap. The wires don't seem to fit either. Maybe whoever did this...

    Any idea what eng. this is ????

    damannhw, Wow, what an oversight on my part. Thanks, I'll go see if it has the whole in the rear like my 302 has.....Thanks

    Any idea what eng. this is ????

    I believe your right there. Just called discount and they said 289 to 351 valve covers are all the same. The thing I'm wondering about is when I do a tune up? I guess I'll have to take the dist. cap up and have them match it?

    Any idea what eng. this is ????

    Can you tell by the pics if this is a 289 or 302? The distrib. seems really small to be a 302 but I'm not sure. Also, I need valve cover gaskets, not sure what to tell the parts people about the year. Pic # 1 Pic # 2 Pic # 3 Any help out there????? Thanks....if you need more info, just...

    67 stang already has v8 but not original

    Give me a break.....Mark Martin.....1,000,000 bucks. You didn't watch the race? They probably don't like the #6 either. Well, I'm not sure what this has to do with my 67 stang but, maybe something good will come out of this.
