    I am replacing the head gasket on a 1988 Ford Mustang 4-140 2.3 liter and have no idea what I am doing. This is my first time working on an engine and I need some schematics or something. Does anyone know where I can find those?

    Go to the local parts store and buy one of those cheapie service manuals for your car. You will need it for torque specs and general guidance. You can also take a look at this link, but it is not extremely detailed and does not give the torque specifications: TurboFord FAQ

    The Chilton's guide for these cars is actually pretty good (unlike the Chilton's I got for my truck, which is about worthless).

    I'd recommend picking one of those up, mine has been invaluable, even for stuff on my Thunderbird.
