Thanks for your reply. Does each piston need to be tdc or can i torque em where they are.

I am in the process of putting my 351w back together and i do not know if i need to bolt the rocker arms down in a special way. I do not think my heads are stop lock anymore but i do not know. If not do i adjust for valve lash or find tdc on each cyclinder and torque down. This is my first...

Hey guys I got a 65 with a 351w in it. I need to replace the head gasket, can it be done with the motor in the car. I am very close to the towers, and I am sure somebody on here has done a head gasket swap with a 351w so any advice will be appreciated.

Im not sure how many cores. Its brass and tiny though. I dont have a shoud on it so I know thats part of the problem but I havent bought one because I wanted to replace the little radiater any way ( I like the look of a big aluminum radiater). As for a fan it has a spacer and sits really close...

I have a 351w in a 65 mustang and the 289 radiater is not keeping it as cool as I would like it too. I stay at 180 while driving but stopped i climb up fast to 200-210. i am wanting to put an aluminum radiater from a 69 mustang in my car. I do not want to cut my current support though. Will...

I have a 65 mustang that was set up for racing by the previous owner. The fuse box is not putting power out. I have a seperate fuse blok I am gonna run for the heater and stuff, but I was wondering if I can slice my instrument lights into my headlight wires so they come on together. My...

Appreciate it. Yeah ive been around chevys mainly (but only bought Fords, weird), that explains sayin posi.

I aint arguin with anybody on if its a posi or not. All I'm tryin to figure out is if when jacked up do i put the car in neutral or leave in park to to check the direction of the spinning tires. I just thought it was weird that mine spin opposite in park but in the same direction when in...

In neutral they spin the same way, so I guess it is a posi. Just dont know why I aint seeing two marks. I guess ill try power breaking the car and see if I leave two marks. Thanks for the input guys.

Is that in park or drive? In park they spin opposite but in drive they spin the same direction.

Yeah it was built for the strip mainly. It has subframe connecters, tubbed, and a built 351w etc. I know by looking at the bottom bolts that it is a 9, like the guy told me it was. Everything was new in the car, but the guy got cancer and it sat up for about 10 years or so, it doesnt seem...

I have a ford 9 in my 65 mustang. I was told it was a posi, but when i burn rubber I only see 1 tire mark. I jacked the back up today and when in park the tires spin opposite but when in drive they spin in the same direction. When i do peel out It is the driver tire that leaves a mark. I am...

Thanks dennis that helps alot. Yeah i am def. going with the one piece gasket.

Hey guys I have a 65 with a 351w. Im about to replace the oil pan gasket, because I put a new timing chain cover on and the whole cut the old gaskets and put the new pieces on just isnt working out for me, leaking bad. I know the crossmember has to be removed but I am hearing different...

Hey guys I am leaking fuel from the big couple that the fuel line screws into which then screws onto the carb. I believe there is a washer that goes with that coupler to prevent this. Does anybody know if this is true and where and where I can buy a new washe/gasket. I did not see anything in...

Hey guys I have a 351w I just changed the timing cover and forgot where the alternater brackets bolt on. Can someone show me a pic or describe? Thanks

The rear end was rebuilt about 10 years ago but bassically sat there, so it doesnt have many miles on it. It is def. posi trac though. I am wondering If you have to have a specific gear oil in posi or something, maybe if I change that it will work? Idk

Hey guys I bought a mustang with a Ford 9 inch posi. However when I peel out I leave only one tire mark. Any ideas on why both tires are not spinning? I have not jacked it up to see if both spin but It does not make since why I am only roasting one tire.

Alright got the cover off appreciate all the help I'm sure yall be hearing from me when I stick it all back on in a couple of days (hopefully remebering where all these dang bolts go) I tried marking them with tape. JonK appreciate the info on codes I will do that as soon as possible Ive been...

How do I tell which cover I need. I def. need one that has a dipstick hole (thats how I cracked this one). If I have a reverse pump then it runs off a pulley correct I dont think it does. The only pully I have is the one for the fan belt/alt.
