hi all ....
I'm building a 351 windsor 2V that I pulled from an original 1971 LTD
-I have the bulk of the motor broken down -
I bought... through ford racing ...the special oil pan conversion kit w/the pick up - but I wanted to know ....can I buy any oil pump???....a regular oil pump (not high volume) for a 351w ...melling type - shouldn't they 'be' the same as a 90 - 93 302/5.0.....it should fit ...right?
Is the reason why there is a screw in hole near the bottom for a dipstick switching everything over from a normal 5.0?
Any help with this or 'reccommends' would be great - this is planned as a low end torque / flat tappet cam motor - street motor - new heads - new pistons - .30 over.....4 bbl
Thx
