Dang VibrantRedGT Thats very impressive, you have a very nice machine. Did any of your wire hiding involve lengthening any of the harnesses? I'm assuming you rerouted a lot into the fenders, you just take the splash shields out to get access? I would like to make the engine bay a lot less...

Dang VibrantRedGT that is very nice. Wish mine looked like that lol

The plan is just to pull the motor, replace the leaking rear main seal and oil oan gasket and paint it to make it look nice. Then add the heads cam and intake and throw it back in, it will be getting a new oil pump, timing chain and other associated parts as well. The main reason I am pulling...

is it necessary to clean the pistons as well? If so what is the best way? Also with the new oil pump would it be wise to buy a new pick up as well? I would like to paint the block and pan, what paint would you recommend for the application? and how do i get the rust off the block? Thanks for...

Alright well things have been pretty slow, here are some pics This is day one when i got the mustang here it is as it sits in the garage right now on a side note what is the best way to get the gasket material off of the block? Ive seen everything from using a razor blade and brake cleaner...

On a side note how long do oil oan gaskets last? and about how many miles does it take for the cross hatching to wear away? Im thinkin maybe it was improperly rebuilt and would just like to see about how long ago this was done. thanks guys!

It was both the intake and exhaust springs on one cylinder, I could spin them while they were on the head. This piston didnt look messed up at all and honestly I think I can see some crosshatching on the walls which leads me to believe its been rebuit. I didnt reall get a good look at anything...

Alright guys i started tearing down the motor, and ran into some suprises. 1St i didnt have any bolt break on me so far! Lol second i only got the passenger side off, and noticed i could literally grab and turn both the springs on the cylinder closest to the fire wall. I could turn it 360 with...

Wow man, you are doing a fantastic job. You are a true inspiration to me and im not doing near the work you are lol. I look forward to seeing this car progress. Realy neat man good luck!

Thanks for the recommendation on the balancer. I have a few questions about the cam. I see a lot of available kits for degreeing a cam and I am wondering if there are certain piston stops that wont fit our blocks? Also is there a degree wheel that is better for ford 302 motors? Also, when im...

Thanks for the info! After I retorqe the rockers will I have to keep doing that every so often?

Thanks for the reply. And yes the motor will be getting a new oil pump and water pump, along with timing chain etc. I would like to get it as freshened up as possible without taking it to the shop!

Hey guys, I have finally gotten all the parts to do my H/C/I swap on my car. But I have a few questions that i would like your guys help with. 1st, the oil pan gasket, and rear main seal leak pretty badly, I want to just re-gasket the entire thing. Is it easier to just pull the motor out by...

hey guys, I'm having a problem with the idle on my car ans was hoping you guys could help me out. Driving around town the car is just fine but when i put the car in park the rpms shoot up to 1500rpm? What could cause this? is this something as simple as a vacuum line? Thanks, John

I literally just took off my smog pump from my 95 gt, i have the pump and pulley if you want if. Just let me know -John

Alright, Can I use trickflows valve covers? and will the 3/8" spacer effect the egr at all?

I guess i kinda assumed that stock valve covers wouldn't work. Would i be able to use them with the trickflow heads without any clearance issues if i use 1.6 roller rockers?

Hey guys I was wondering if you could help me out with a question I have. I currently have a 95 mustang gt aode that has exhaust and gears. I am wanting to make the car into a fun DD and i want to install trick flow twisted wedge 170 heads on the car. I have a cobra intake and plan on using a...

Alright thanks for your help guys!

What would make it possible for me to use the lower intake on my 95? here are some pics of the lower, as requested.
