    Thank you to everyone who posted and answer. I'll be contacting PA Performance to see what kind of "package" they can recommend.

    Alternator/charging question

    I have a custom alt bracket that I made. Trying to figure out how I could mount one of those? Does anyone make an alt that would fit just like my stock but, but puts out at least 100AMPS?

    Safe way to remove hard water stains from windows?

    This stuff right here works. I've used it on a few cars. Safe, and easy to use. Just follow the instructions: DP High Performance Glass Restorer removes etched water spots from auto glass and restores perfect clarity. Apply with a polisher or applicator for

    Alternator/charging question

    I have a 1985 Capri with a 302 and I just got everything back together. I'm having a problem that I may already know the answer to. I have an electric fuel pump, electric water pump, and electric fan. I have an issue where if I run all of them for more than 10 minutes or so, it stops...

    damn, brand new motor too. Ran strong through the 1st 2 miles. :) I hope it's the head for an excuse to buy better flowing ones. :) How do I test to see if it's a water jacket?

    Cylinder 5 has water in it - new motor with 4 miles on it!

    Ugh. I thought I myight have blown the head gasket cuz I brought it back from limping on 7 cylinders. I am about to lift the head off, cut I have a couple questions: 1. I did a comp check on cyl 5 and it was at like 185pst, but when I pushed the release, water came out. So I did this about 5...

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    HEY! I might have found the problem. After doing a compression test on the cyl with a little bit of water on the spark plug and the one next to it, they were both 130psi. It's a stock longblock, so thats good, right? Also, I left the comp gauge hooked up for a mintue and the pressure...

    hmmmm, tempted... :) I think for now, I'd be happy with stopping by motor from eating green fluid. :)

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    but no use doing all that with stock heads, right? I would at least want to look at windsor jr's.

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    with f cam, would I need stronger springs? how about using stock rockers?

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    wow, i thought they liked boost. Also, the F cam has a nice lope to it, right? I love lopey cams but I thought high duration just wasted boost.

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    im guessing the stock cam would not do well with victor jr' since I've never heard of anyone doing that. :) I'll order the parts today. Thanks for all the help. I'll take pictures and post em.

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    Whats the ARP part # that is correct for my stock heads? Also, if I ever went up to oh say, Victor Jr. heads, would that be easier on my head gaskets?

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    since I only got about 10 miles out of the motor, is important to keep track of where the pushrods and valvetrain came from?

    do the ARP studs come with good instructions?

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    thanks for all your help guys. I'm gonna do (sigh) head gaskets, arp studs, intake gaskets, and arp lube and sealer as directed. How many hours does this take the average guy? I've replaced them before but I forgot how long it took me. Probably all together about 5 hours.

    Think I blew a head gasket. Could it be intake gasket?

    I failed to mention that I just put this new motor in. It's a stock rebuild that I bought from a place in Houston, TX. It has an E303 cam in it too. Yeah, sucks. Just got it all back together and now this. It ran fine for about 10 miles then puff - 7 cylinders. After noticing the steam...
