    New to v8's, help me with my combo....

    Well, I went ahead and did the trade for the carb and purchased a Morosso low profile filter assembly. Only thing left to do now really is put it all together and get the carb tuned in I suppose. On the Edelbrock Performer heads, any idea if I'll need 90* spark plug boots to clear the bbk...

    New to v8's, help me with my combo....

    Ok, so I'm new to 302 and v8's(been a 2.3T guy for years). The motor I believe was pulled out of an 84 or so T-bird. When I bought the car, I was told it was bored 30 over, mild cam installed and it had a bad Edelbrock 600 4-barrel and crappy e6se heads. So far the parts I've acquired...

    2008 Ford Hood Scoops

    Interested also in Michigan. What are the dimensions on them? Looking at doing a custom setup on my Xr so that I can fit a hood on the car, lol.

    PT&E 5031 turbo and edelbrock performer carb intake

    Hey all, I've had this turbo for a little and intended to use it on my 2.3T build, but am selling to help build the 302 ;) It's a t3/t4 turbo, to4e housing, 50 trim wheel, turbonetics .63 stage 3 housing and turbine. Per PT&E's webpage, this turbo is rated at 460hp. It is lightly used, maybe...

    Edelbrock Performer single carb, dual plane intake

    I've got a used edelbrock performer that came on the motor, but I'm going to step up to the air gap rpm. A little dirty on the outside, but fully functional. $100 shipped in the states. :nice:

    question for new setup

    just a stupid easy question, but is the maf calibrated for the 24's? This would definitely cause driveability issues.

    what happened here

    haha, I think a big reason things aren't so "active" is because just about everything has been covered! I now I'm at fault for this, but I think a lot of the Newbie type questions are because of the 8+ pages of responses to a search take FOREVER to go through! I've been working with the 2.3T...

    New from MI, 302 Swapped Merkur Xr4ti

    I'll get some pics up this weekend. Actually not picking the car up until Friday evening, but already trying to figure out issues at hand with it! I think now the overheating problem is the previous owner deleted smog and a/c and didn't do anything to route the belt so the water pump spins in...

    Couple questions, how to tell what year motor and WP rotation

    Ok, just had a friend check out the motor and how the pulley setup is ran. He said the PS is in fact hooked up(must be the rack is bad then!), but the belt is just ran in a big circle, no snaking, therefor implying the waterpump is turning the SAME direction as the motor. This is in fact the...

    Couple questions, how to tell what year motor and WP rotation

    Hey all, so I just bought(but haven't picked up yet, will do later this week) a 302 swapped carb'd Merkur Xr4ti. The guy I'm buying it from can't remember which year motor it is he had put it in and was wondering what's the easiest way I can tell the year? Also, the car has an overheating...

    New from MI, 302 Swapped Merkur Xr4ti

    So I just picked up a 302 swapped carb'd Xr4ti this week. It has an overheating issue that I need to figure out(think it is simple like coolant cap) and replace the heater core, but I can't wait to get her fixed and take it for a spin. I'm new to Carb's, been a 2.3T efi guy for years now and...
