When I am driving at speeds of 5 to 30 mph and turn left there is a vibration. Also a lot of times when i go over a bump or shift the rearend makes a clunking noise (I am going to try to add some rearend fluid to see if that helps). There is also some random coolant leaking out on the driver side of the car almost right under the back right side of the engine. The weird thing is it doesnt leak much at all, only like two drops when it does, and sometimes doesnt leak at all. Its not a constant leak at all it just kind of happens every once in a while and only puts out a few drops when it does. The vibration when I turn the wheel to the right its the main thing thats bothering me right now and I cant figure it out. If someone could help me with it i would appreciate it.

Also just a quick question. If I were to buy one of those ford racing 302 crate engines w/ the gt40 heads and everything rated at 345hp on summit or jegs, could i supercharge it and be safe or would it not hold up to it. Thanks.
 
I'm looking at the same motor. I talked to a guy at the track who had a Kenne Bell supercharger on his stock 2002. I believe it was 8-10psi boost. And that's as far as you could go.He dynoed 426 rwhp. Ford Racing can tell you what you can run for boost. That's where you'll get the best answer.
The 345hp crate has hypertinetic pistons. They are not good with high boost levels. If you follow Ford's reccomendations you should be safe. You'll also have to back down your timing and maybe run a colder plug, larger injectors,an ample fuel pump and regulator.
