    Met the girl of my dreams today

    Thinking of adding my interceptor body armor to the packing list for the next time I happen to be in Arizona :eek: Especially considering what your brother and his wife happen to do for entertainment, AND especially having seen the re-loading setup in his garage... THANKS TRISH...

    '70-71 2bbl intake?

    Already did. It's not a Mexican block. From my understanding the Mexican blocks were simply cast into the late 70s/early 80s with the older casts, so a block as early as '71 is the strong USA made block anyway. It is for sure a 1971 block. The intake is a non EGR setup. It'll most likely...

    '70-71 2bbl intake?

    Hey all, thought this would be the place to ask this: I just bought a '71 302 motor with a 2bbl intake on it, casting number begins with DOOE.... Is this worth trying to sell/ship? I'm guessing I'll be better off getting scrap iron money for it, just kinda wondering out loud...

    Met the girl of my dreams today

    A PLF is a parachutists' Landing Fall. Hitting the balls of the feet, calf, thigh, buttocks, then the pullup muscle in that order. However it usually turns into a PFL.. Pretty Fouled up Landing. Feet, arse, head, shoulder... etc.. BTW Trish is gonna kill you when she reads this and...

    Benifits from an intake spacer?

    They also make a 3/8 spacer if you are nervous about hood clearance. I use one to keep my intake up off the plug wires for easier access to some stuff. Otherwise I wouldn't use it at all. The intake is still lower than the STB I have so I would bet the stock hood will clear a 1/2" pretty...

    Anyone have their original oem mufflers?

    Flowmaster Force II catback, Has 3 chamber (50 series) flowmasters. They are unbelievably mild at idle/part throttle. Scream at WOT, but still quieter than even a Super 40. With stock mufflers on, I had enough interior noise that you had to raise your voice a good bit to talk in the car...

    Anyone have their original oem mufflers?

    I'll look back at the house in Iowa when I go home for XMas, I know there are 2 stock H pipes there, but I think we scrapped the 40,000 mile stock Mufflers when they came off... Also asking why? Looking for a specific sound (Dynomax Superturbos sound almost identical FWIW)? or quiet? My...

    stonger rear?

    We'll see how the Stranges hold up to my heavy arse car in the future with more power.. Paul I think you're right, My ABS light came on recently and I think maybe its due to a bent axle shaft... Oh well, my axles were practically free and the diff only cost me a hundred bucks...

    stonger rear?

    It's hit or miss. I busted a stock axle with BFG drag radials. Now I'm running Strange 31 spline axles and a used 03 Cobra diff, been great so far and drivability is identical to the stock rear.

    Camshaft thrust BEARING?

    I was under the impression that the roller cam won't walk around as much. Usually you see these on flat-tappet cams, because of the lifter not sitting squarely on the lobe will attempt to push the cam out of the block a lot more.

    does a 1/2" thick main girdle fit our oil pans?

    Bolted my pan on tonight.. No interference from the ARP studs at all. Again, though, they are designed for no windage tray or girdle at all. If the girdle you have has longer ARP bolts and not true studs I'd bet it's the trick flow setup that won't clear a stock pan. What we fought like...

    does a 1/2" thick main girdle fit our oil pans?

    OK, the pans are identical in shape. What we couldn't get to fit on the TFS kit was the oil pickup, there was no way... Next up, tomorrow we find out if ARP studs with no girdle will clear a stock oil pan :) They should, the ARP studs for a girdle are longer than stockers...

    does a 1/2" thick main girdle fit our oil pans?

    I have seen a DSS girdle fit a stock oil pan on a Fox.. The Trick Flow girdle that comes with longer bolts instead of studs will NOT fit a stock Fox pan Pretty sure our pan is identical to a Fox. Will check tomorrow, I have my stock pan and the stocker from the LX motor I'm replacing it...

    Infamous Tremec Vibration issue finally solved

    I thought and fought all that too, my fix came by accident when I grenaded a U-joint at FFW Houston... Tommie Vaughn Motorsports hooked me up with a '96-04 FRPP aluminum driveshaft and upon sliding it in I had no more vibes. I have since flipped my crossmember back and forth to attempt to...

    '93 and 94/95 cobra lowers the same?

    ^^ Exactly. I had a Ford Racing lower on mine for a while (was heavily ported, too much for my setup, now I wish I had it back lol) and it was setup for an '87-'93. Simply plug it and you'll be happy. Mr. Gasket sells a nice set of stainless steel pipe plugs that stay nice and shiny and...

    Got some updated shots of my 347 car (finally)

    Lookin' good man! You need to swing down here to 'Nam so I can check out those wheels in person, I have been eyeballing a set of them w/silver centers for mine! Hopefully mine will have a 347 early next year, should be getting the rotating assembly for Xmas, then its just a matter of...

    this is bad

    That's interesting, guess I must be lucky. I have a blaster TFI on the Mustang, and the old one off it I originally installed back in 2000. I only removed it because it was around the edges and I put a fresh shiny one on... The old one sat on a shelf for 3 months then went on my F-150 where...

    I can't escape the madness.....New Combo

    Did it mess up the B50 block? How well was it holding up to your power? How is the car used? Reason I ask is I'm eyeballing the B50 or Mexican block for a 450-500 RWHP Nitrous 347 buildup... Thanks. BTW Tmoss my lower may be coming back to you in the near future, I'm gonna be...

    cam advice!

    If you go so far as to expose the front of your cam, I'd yank that B out and stab something better in. It was designed for extra duration at the E7's head's max flow lift, which you're waay beyond with your P's.
