    Slightly O.T. but your area of expertise.

    I am looking at getting a boat with a '72 ford 302 in it with oil that looks like a cappucino (investigating the cause, believe to be a cracked block) for dirt cheap (because of the junk motor) and I am wondering if an '88 5.0 that I still have sitting in my garage would bolt up correctly as a...

    Ok, long story short, I have my '70 fastback basket case, and I bought a "parts car" that is just as bad. I really just bought it because it had a toploader 4spd in it with a hurst z-gate shifter and strange built 9" rear end, and the guy only wanted $1000 for it (no engine, body really bad...
