Two things I had to do was adjust my clutch cable (where the clutch engagement was half way thru the pedal movement) and back the mechanical stop for the shifter (B&M) where there was about 1/8" clearance for 2 and 4th gear. I could actually get...

    lx 2.3 turbo to 306 swap

    v8 swap I kinda new but here is what I know. The transmission pilot is a different diameter from 4 cyl to V8. That means you will need to put a V8 input shaft into the transmission or put a special bearing in the V8 crankshaft. You will need the V8 flywheel, bell housing and clutch. The tag...

    NEW TO SITE HAVE A QUESTION

    That is a common thing to do. I do not feel the Aerostar drive shaft is inferior to the aftermarket Mustang shaft. I belive the two are identical so I would guess 350 Hp would be tops.
