    PLEASE HELP. My father retired from Ford in Dearborn, Looking for photo of building

    Yeah, I believe it was torn down. I used to live in Livonia, but now live in West Virginia... Otherwise, I'd do it myself. I'm guessing I'll just have to do some detective work. Are there any Ford employees on this website that might be able to help? I signed up for the forums at...

    PLEASE HELP. My father retired from Ford in Dearborn, Looking for photo of building

    Thanks for the post. However, my father worked in the NAAO building that was torn down sometime in the late 90's...... What about a contact at Ford, or the public records for Wayne county???

    PLEASE HELP. My father retired from Ford in Dearborn, Looking for photo of building

    Yeah, while he is still alive, I am trying to find a photo of the Ford 'NAAO' building that used to be on Rotunda. He worked for 30 years at Ford and I would love to give him this gift. Can anyone help me?

    Ready to install Longblock. Do it w/ headers on?

    Ok, I'll follow your direction. I'll putthe headers in first, then set the motor in. Is the steering linkage going to be a problem?

    Ready to install Longblock. Do it w/ headers on?

    They are BBK 1 3/4 longtubes... I guess setting them in before the engine would be a good idea. I'll send pics if I ever get this damn thing in.

    Ready to install Longblock. Do it w/ headers on?

    I have a new longblock that I bought and I'm ready to install it. I'd like to know if I need to leave the headers off though. I have a Flaming river manual rack that I also installed already, if t hat makes a difference. Thanks!

    Oil pan question. Timing cover not flush

    So you would not recommend installing the timing cover without the dowells? Damn. I'll have to take it off now and get a new gasket... Oh, instead of buying a gasket, is it ok just to use black rv sealant? Thanks!

    Oil pan question. Timing cover not flush

    Ok, so here I am now looking at the problem in the face and feel like a dumbazz. You know the dowells that position the timing cover, well after looking at the old engine, the new timing covers do not come with the dowells. That explains the problem. Question: Do I need them or what? If...

    Putting my oil pump and pickup on tonight...

    I am putting my long block together and looking for help on the oil pump driveshaft. I bought a Hd shaft from Ford racing and it came with the "star" washer. It is more like a washer that slides only (with force) the long end of the shaft. Is that where it goes? I understand the washer...

    Oil pan question. Timing cover not flush

    No, it's a Stef's oil pan and it doesn't seem to be the problem. The timing cover is not flush with the block on the bottom of the engine... Good idea though.

    Oil pan question. Timing cover not flush

    I talked to my buddy that owns a local garage and 3 Mustangs (2 of them are supercharged). He said not to rely on RTV sealant for that big of a gap. Sure as *****, when the crankcase sees pressure from the boost, it'll blow it out. So, I'm thinking about taking off the timing cover...
