I recently purchased a mach 1 grille for my 71 that currently has a standard grille in it. I haven't taken anything apart yet, but just from looking at the new grille it appears that it mounts up differently than the standard grille. Any one have any experience on this?

I am interested, send me a message!

sorry, its a 351 windsor.

Looking at a rebuild kit that will give 9.06:1 compression ratio with 63cc heads, but I will be using 61cc heads. Any idea what compression ratio I will be looking at? Thanks!

Dropped the heads off at the machinists yesterday but because its the weekend they wont check them until monday. My clutch is almost brand new so I dont think I will be replacing it. I was able to use the oil pickup from the 289, now I am just waiting on my oilpan. :)

Just checked out my heads, and if im gonna use em, I have to get em drilled out... :( Not the end of the world though, and I just might have to shave a bit off of em to gain some compression ratio while I am at it.

I am not sure on what the compression ratio on the 86 is stock - I looked around a bit but found no info on it. Not sure on my head bolt size, I will have to check, but if I go with my trick flow heads I will need different pushrods too, right?

Thanks for the info! Yes the engine is carbed, and its even a four barrel from the factory, which I was suprised to see. I guess it was a HO option for trucks that year, but from what little i have found on researching the engine, sounds like factory numbers were nothing too special. Any one...

So as I understand it, the flywheel will work along with the bellhousing and all the clutch parts. Can i use the 289 oilpan? How hard will it be to use the 1986 distributor in my car? Any change in wiring?

So I found a 1986 351 out of a truck with low miles, and am going to swap it into my 1967 mustang, what parts do I need? As I understand it, everything will bolt up, but I am unsure about the ignition and the flywheel. Any one have experience on this? The engine is complete, but was hooked up to...

the latest is excess crankcase pressure and overheating problems and leaking coolant A LOT. the leaking part I am pretty sure is just frost plugs that have corroded away - at least 2 of them - but the crankcase pressure I am not sure of. I have to pull the engine to get at the frost plugs (if...

Um, wheres the barn? :D I would say go for it, there are at least 500 bux in parts there.

So I have decided the 289 in my mustang has gotta go - I need to upgrade! I want something that will work well with the TFS heads I put on the engine just last year - they are 61 cc combustion chambers with no porting or polishing work done on them. I have been looking at some 347 roller short...

I purchased a shelby rear seat delete panel for my mustang - the part is for a 65, but I was told it would fit with minor modifications, and after takiing out the back seat and placing it where the rear seat used to be I can tell that it will fit, but now my question is, How? Do you have to...

well, I know you have had a few interested parties, but Im going to add myself to the list. Can you tell me what the shipping would be to 56401? I am afraid this is gonna hurt... Im a ways a way from you, but man, those would go real nice on my 67... :)

Seems to me that your question is relatively easy to answer - Look at the car, and look for the things that were 64.5 only, like a generator instead of an alternator, and a passenger seat that doesn't adjust. Been a while since I have read the differences between a 64.5 and a 65, but I think...

I am a bit curious about the weight too, but the GV unit is taking the tail housing and replacing it, so I dont think it could be too bad.

I thought about going with a 5 speed, but dont want to do the mods on my stang. I have a 289 in it right now, but in the near future I will be going back to a big block - either a 390 or a 428 - and hope to push about 400-500hp, depending on which engine i go with. how hard was the six speed to...

I am running a toploader right now, and wont go to a auto. Been eyeballing the gearvendors overdrive, but man is it expensive... :(

Howdy! Any one driving a stang with an overdrive unit in it? what kind? did you install it yourself? pros and cons? I am considering a overdrive unit for my mustang - just installed 4.11 gears and love the performance, but the rpms are pretty high at highway speeds! thanks in advance.
