    351 heads on a 302

    The only heads worth doing the swap would be the 69/70 windsow heads. They have some pretty decent flow numbers. After that, the smog era kicked in and all performance was lost.

    i think my t-5 is on the way out.....

    Does it grind going into reverse? If so thats normal. Reverse doesn't have a synchro, so wait a sec before you engage the gear.

    Can someone explain to me LCAs?

    When I looked at your sig, I looked at everything BUT you car. Sorry about that. In that case go for the LCA's you've got some power, now launch that sucker!

    Finally ran the new 347 combo at the track

    115 mph is low 12, high 11 second territory. I wouldn't consider that low.

    Can someone explain to me LCAs?

    MSD ignition won't give you any more power. The stock ignition set up is sufficient for a stock engine. LCA's have better bushings which allow a more solid grip with the road. That is why you can launch more effectively with them. I would personally go with an intake. It is not much more $ than...

    Posting full size photos??

    They have the pictures hosted on a webpage. They then copy and paste the link (to the picture) into the web picture button in the reply message tools section. Works like a charm.

    Full Conversion

    The severity of the conversion depends on a few factors. Is this a strip only car? Street car? How big is your budget? The 4 cyl manual transmission will not hold up to the 400 ft lbs of torque that the 342 makes. Brakes are a pretty big issue with the 4 banger cars, They just don't brake well...

    white smoke?

    well it would appear that somehow coolant is leaking into the combustion chambers. Check to see if you can find any external leaks. Also check your oil, if you see a milky substance or water, then you know you have trouble.

    differance between posi and limited slip?

    Posi is a chevy term. Fords use "trac lock" (spl?). Limited slip means it uses some form of a clutch device to allow the wheels to move uniquely, for instance around a sharp corner.

    Hypereutectic pistons + N20...Will it work?

    :stupid:, I don't have much to say other than from what I've heard it CAN be done, with the right tune.

    Road racing versus drag racing

    IMO, drag racing engines would be made to make power higher in the rpms, producing more hp. In road racing, you want the low end torque to pull you out of the corners.

    Why is running open headers bad...

    sort of. I'm not the best person to explain this, but I'll give it a try. The best way I can describe it is for you to think of the exhaust exiting in pulses. The first "pulse" will begin, which will have a low pressure behind it. With the next pulse behind it, the low pressure will "pull" the...

    To rebuild, or not rebuild.........thats the question

    Reverse doesn't have a synchro, so it is normal to grind. Put it another gear first, then reverse, it shouldn't grind then. Try resetting the clutch by pulling up on the clutch pedal. You should hear a click. this "ratchets" the clutch adjustment back into place. (assuming it doesn't have a...
