Anyone know or have any 5.0 pistons that are better than stock. All I can find under $350 have a lower pin height. Even if I spend more I'm not seeing many options. I'd like to be around 10-1. Using either D0 windsor heads or gt40s, I have both.

The car was completely rust free besides where they patched the floor without sealing...being in Iowa that's rare. I just need to decide what to do with the thing. Piece it together, part out cougar or sell it. I'm also looking for door panels, dashboard and seats near me (central,Iowa). Red...

I just picked up an 85 gt, possibly for parts. The trans has a tag on it I've never seen before. Is it factory or does it mean something?..possibly "built" maybe? Also the floor is full of cracks and has a few wrinkles, is this something I should worry about drivability wise or just weld me up...

Really? Alright, now I know. Thanks

I have a spoiler laying around and I was told it was off a 7up edition mustang convertible. I haven't decided if I'm going to use it on my cougar or not. If someone needed it I rather them have it. Anyone know if it is, are they worth anymore than any other stock spoilers?

Man, Ive kicked this around for a few years. I've had a few awd explorers. I seem to lack the ambition/skill to follow through. Can't wait! Keep it up.

Agreed. 2nd fox cougar i've had(first was xr7) . Ill get on the pics. Ill have to ask around to see if theres some panels I can test out. I'll check back either way.

Hi, I just picked up an 81 cougar. Id like to fix it up a bit. Right now I'm curious if anyone knows if other door panels would swap over, fairmonts look like they would for sure...any idea if mustang would as well? These cougars are a bit scarce. Thanks Nate

It'll be tame, built around the heads. I have roller rockers. My buddy uses 90° plug wires...no problem. I was just curious if the price was decent because I've never had any heads done before. Thank you FoxMustang for reading the post. I'm going to call the guy and see what we can work out.

Hi, just looking for opinion. There is a craigslist ad with a pair of gt40p heads. I contacted the guy, he is wanting $450. I know machining isnt cheap but does that seem steep? Would I be better off with a china aluminum set for a few hundred more? I'll be building a budget 351w for my truck...

Hi, my dad's looking for a 63/64 galaxie XL steering column. Also a 4 speed toploader for a galaxie. I figured i'd post where I could. Thanks Nate.

I've seen a few used tko's on Racingjunk.com and craigslist for less then then what a new t5 would run. May be worth a look if you're hard on stuff like myself.

Hi, does anyone know if I was to run main power kill switch would my FiTech efi save my tune(what it knows anyway)..also would it be hard on it at all? My battery dies within a few hours, it didnt before the install. Thanks nate

Thanks! When it was intially put together the pushrods were measured, I had a steel/iron dist gear incident...I'd rather not get into. Before that it had a erson cam with similar lift, I didnt check between the two. It wasnt loud then either. As of now it's running Mag1 10-30. The lifters were...

Hi, I got my motor fired up last night and the rockers are really noisey. 351w rhs heads old hyd roller z303 ford racing cam w/scorpion 1.6 rockers. They sound fairly even, it gets louder when the oils up to temp. I've adjusted them twice, half turn preload. Is this just how it is with this cam...

Thanks, I bought a aluminum plate...$5. That covers 1/100th of my questions to come.

Ok. I'm started on what I can do now toward my FiTech fi. I think i'll be swapping my timing cover(72) for a newer one i have(87), instead of buying a block off plate. Question...has anyone drilled a newer cover for a dipstick? Mine has a provision, everything looks right just no hole. Or would...

How would that happen? Seating the dist with a hammer before its in the hole? I wouldnt worry about it if its being torn down. Maybe clean it up a bit. Assuming im making sence of the pic.

Nvm, I got ahold of the tanks inc fella. Seems I can make a mustang efi tank work.

Hi, well here's my plan givin i'll have a bit to spend here soon...i'm dead set on converting my 68 falcon to efi. I will be going with FiTech 600 that is decided. I have been researching and digging around for two weeks so far and I think I have talked myself out of the fuel command center...
