    Steering Wheel Removal

    Is it possible to remove the steering wheel without having the puller? I have -$25,000 in my bank (identity theft), so I can't buy or lease the tool.

    Planning motor

    Some of you may have seen my other thread about going with a SBC in my mustang, but due to AJE prices going up, it will be more cost effective to build a SBF. It won't be just a hopped up 302. This is what I have planned thus far: 351W block 9.200" deck height (don't know which block yet)...

    SBC in fox

    Flame away. :flame: I'm wondering what would be needed to put a Chevy 350 in a fox. I'm only entertaining the idea of doing this because I can build a 350 much cheaper than I can do a SBF. I'm on a big budget, and I can get the motor built, I just need to know what I would need to put it in...

    EFI to carb legal issue???

    Does anyone know if the car was originally EFI, but me now hating all the damn wires, can I just swap the car to carb, and still be fine legally? I had always heard that if I was going to do this I'd have to have someone from the DOT review everything. I am really wanting to get rid of the...

    How much to sell for?

    I have a 1991 lx hatch that I was doing a motor swap on, Everything is done and good, except the car won't run more than 8 seconds, I'm going to try one more thing that I haven't done yet, then if that doesn't work I'll put it for sale as is. I'm thinking I should put it up for $1800 and hope...

    Runs, then dies.

    Ok, last steps of the motor swap. Everything is hooked up, plugged in, and connected. I start the car, it starts, it runs at about 2000 RPM, and runs for about 8 seconds before cutting off. While its running, it runs strong, and fairly smooth. Not a perfect run, but I just fired it up after 6...

    Starter not spinning

    I just finished the motor swap on one of my mustangs, and the thing is, I wanted to just spin it over a few times, make sure nothing was leaking or breaking yet. I spun it over with plugs 1,2 and 3 disconnected. After that, I put the wires back on, and spun it over to start. To my surprise it...

    Oil pump shaft/dizzy prob.

    I have yet another question about the oil pump shaft and dizzy. I searched, but nothing was quite what I needed. When I put the shaft in, with the little clip/star washer on the shaft, the shaft doesn't reach the oil pump. I can freely turn it. When I try to put the dizzy on, it has almost an...

    Hanging Exhaust

    I know this is a newbish type of question, but I'm just making sure: When putting the H-pipe back on, do the flow tubes need to be under or over the tranny. crossmember? It seems that they need to be over for the hangers to fit into the spots, but I remembered (long time ago) take the...

    HELP Drive Shaft not fitting.

    I was under my car today intending on putting the DS back in the car, and to my dismay it seems that the drive shaft is too short for it to fit properly. When the yoke is flush with the rear-end, the front of the drive shaft isn't all the way in. I have two DS, from both of my cars, and both of...

    Tranny for 300 I6

    I'm trying to do some research for a friend, and she's wanting to fix her husbands truck. The truck has a 300 CID six. The truck is a '78 F150 4x4. The transfer case is still good, and the current tranny is still good. The tranny she wants to replace was the 3 speed with granny gear. She wants a...
