    351 Engine Question

    So I can not put a roller cam in a nonroller motor? You can't use the 351 oil pan or a 302 oil pan to fit in a fox body? Is there a benefit to having a roller motor over a nonroller?

    Aode Install Question

    I have an 86 Mustang that I am considering putting an ODE in it. If I do the install what is involved and needed to do this install since the car has an AOD in it.

    5.0 Engine Running

    I did notice when I took the rear wheels off the other day it seam like both axles moved in and out some. Is this normal because I thought the diff pin keeps them from going in hardly at all.

    5.0 Engine Running

    Thank you for your help. I was wondering if you could possibly help me with this other issue I am having. I am having a binding noise coming from the rear when turning sort of sharp. It seams to do it once the engine warms and you drive about two miles. I did top off the rear oil after it did...

    Rear Noise Help!!!

    I checked the left drum and it was not sticking. The drum was free when I pulled it off. It prob is the original gear oil in it and it is a 8.8 with 327 in it. How much slop should you have when pushing the axle in and out and rotating it?

    5.0 Engine Running

    I put a new fuel pump, tank, fuel filter, and fuel leveler gauge in it. Then put 5 gals of non-ethanol gas in it with some fuels system cleaner and it started with a couple cranks . The motor ran ruff for a few min and stalled so I started it again and it started running fine.

    Have you put other tanks in that did not have the hole for the mounting screw? So if it is not necessary what is its purpose and the top of the fill pipe is hard mounted correct? If I install without the mounting bracket I should not have any issues?

    5.0 Engine Running

    Have you ever tried the Spectra tanks? The problem I am finding with all the tanks is they do not have the screw hole for the filler neck bracket and not much room from the edge to the weld to put one. Is this bracket still needed?

    So you have clean must of it with nut and bolt or chain and did you just rinse it out and reinstall once dry? Would this work? Most of the rust seams to be half way up to the top of the tank.

    I have some rust and deposits in the tank. Do you think it would be ok to just get as much rest as I can out and reinstall it.

    5.0 Engine Running

    It was not really gummy but had a semi hard residue on the outside of the pump. When you look inside the pump where the strainer attaches it looked pretty clean. It had about a gallon old gas in it. The vehicle did run some on the old gas till it ran out of gas. When looking inside the pump...

    5.0 Engine Running

    So I just drained the tank and decided to pull the pump. The pump runs but the strainer fell apart. Doe you think I should replace the pump to or just get a strainer. The pump is probably about 10 years old but is lucky to have 100 miles on it. Any ideas?
