I mentioned in my no progress-progress thread that I wanted to pull the engine out of my ‘95 GT while the transmission is off being rebuilt .
I’m having the original transmission that’s currently not in the car (long story lol.) rebuilt,I’ll be dropping it off with the builder in January.
I plan to pull the motor after Christmas ,right now I’m trying to research and compile a parts list for some small performance upgrades,and mostly drivability upgrades.
The current 5.0 is a 0.30 over stock block/stock bottom end engine with e7 heads,leaky shorty headers and a letter cam that does not play nice with the computer.
The main reason for the refresh is I want to do a H/C/I swap and fix the oil leaks.
My intentions for the car are just to make it a driver with a mild hope for a 300HP goal
The parts list I have come up with so far (which is subject to change depending on the suggestions of the collective.)
• Mountaineer GT40 upper/lower intake.
(Owned.)
•GT40 cylinder heads.
(Owned. In storage somewhere.)
•Fel Pro gasket set.
(Recommendations?)
•ARP Head bolts.
•New lifters.
(Recommendations?)
•And rocker arms.
(Recommendations?)
•Tfs 1 Cam.
•Cloyes timing chain.
