There was a website that people were talking about on here a month or so ago that was selling ford racing aluminum driveshaft’s for dirt cheap (I seem to remember in the $160 range) does anyone remember what the URL is for that website.

naw, I got a 302 in it. I have a 352 in my F-250.

I love FE engines, but the truth of the matter you can make more power for less money in a 351 or 460 based engine. Unless you have the parts kicking around.

I've heard a 352 is a pretty crappy motor.

What I posted is what I know - I copied the post from Shawn13.
The Aerostar D/S is supposed to be the same as the FMS one, except for the front universal joint. There was a thread on it some time ago, so take a look & see what it has to say. http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=464310

Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
