I have to rebuild my 5.0 due to a cracked piston. I was planning on using KB115 Hyper. pistons, which with my heads (roush/windsor jr.) will give a 9.6:1 c/r. I also wanted to use one of the 303 series ford cams (B or E) and a Vortech V-1 with 5-6 lbs of boost. Will these pistons hold up to...

Has anyone removed the chrome from metal in order for it to be painted? If so what did you use, and did u simply scuff it, or something to completely take it off? (I want to paint my bumpers and valve covers)

Hey guys, got my motor back from the machine shop, and over the process of the last 2 months while they were building it, I started to doubt the choice in cam that I made. I went with the Comp cams Camshaft, 306S, Magnum, Mechanical Flat Tappet, 306/306-260/260-.592/.592 lift -110 Lobe Sep...

I took my 302 in to be bored and balanced. They told me I needed new pistons and bearings but everything else was fine, except the bore. So they bored it .060, balanced it, I bought the new pistons, rings cam and gear drive. They put everything together, balanced it used ARP bolts on the rods...

Man, the search pretty much sucks, the word transmission is too long, and c4 is too short? WTF. Oh well, maybe you guys have answered this before. Does anyone know of a company that makes a bigger drum to hold more clutches in a C4? and is there someone who makes a steel set of...

Does any one know the details on a 1988 5.0 cougar motor? Is it a roller, horsepower, torque, etc. are they worth a crap?

Just a few questions for those of ya with a C4 (1967 type)... What are your experiences running 500+ horses thru a c4? Who makes the best rebuild/shift kit for drag racing? What torque converter do you use, and how high a stall? and where to get a good driveshaft? Im new to the...

Has anyone machined the stock heads to accept the 2.02 and 1.60 valves? Can it be safely done? Im just wondering if its cheaper to have the originals ported, polished, and 3 angled, or just buy a whole new set already done like AFR, world products or even roush?

Have any of you guys tried these? I currently have the Hi-Po manifolds and H-Pipe, with no mufflers and love the sound, but am looking at getting the Tri-y's with the 1 5/8" primarys, no mufflers and side exhaust. I've heard this has a "unique sound". Is this someones way of saying they...

Hey Guys, i'm new to the forum and got a few quick questions for ya. Who (if anyone)likes the bench seat in the 65's, and were they rare enough to want to keep it in the car? I couldnt find anything that actually proves the car is rare, but have heard from a few people that it is...
