    Mike's 302 to 351W Swap.

    Well was a busy weekend for sure chasing the last minute parts around! Didnt get to fire the car off like i wanted too. Had to do some re-shaping of the A/C hose as it touches the passenger header. This engine is definitely wider in the bay than the 302. Had to come up with an intake plumbing...

    Matt I may borrow it so I can get the car moving if that's ok? I already have an adjustable quadrant setup but the cable sucks! So I really wanted an OEM style one from mm. My pedal was really hard to operate

    Ended up buying a set of valve covers today and a spacer for the intake. These covers say they fit over roller rockers and rocker girdle kits. I bought it form summit so if it doesnt i can send it back. Also didnt know how tall of a spacer i should get, so i just went big, eventually i will see...

    Gorgeous car. Hopefully it will go to an owner who treats it as well as you did!

    Thanks all. Got the clutch and bell all together and the tans along with starter. ARP bolts worked perfect on the crank. Jumped the safety switch pigtail as this new trans cover doesn't have the sensor. Got the fuel rail on with extended rubber lines. All this progress there was some that was...

    Won the OEM type adjustable maximum motorsports clutch cable for the opening bid of $59.99, pretty happy with that! Can't wait for a easy smooth operating clutch. My old setup was real hard!

    Got the transmission cross member painted last night. Blue paint came off fairly easily with a wire wheel. Rubbed it all down with a cleaning agent, then painted with Eastwood chassis satin black. IMG_20130417_163355_907_zps15b2ec96.jpg Photo by DieselSlug | Photobucket Also sanded and...

    Mike's 302 to 351W Swap.

    Been looking over the net in search of a OEM type adjustable clutch cable. Maximum Motorsports seems to be the only one that sells it. I need the extra length to get it away from my headers (now that they are wider than the old 302). I found one on ebay from a guy who bought the MM one and...

    Double check your torques on all bolts, if not then the gaskets may have been marked/knicked.

    Stock is the way to go! Less of a chance its been beat on, plus its a blank slate, you make it what you want. I started the same way. Cant wait to see the progress!

    Well ive been trying to aquire new flywheel bolts. Not having much luck in exactly what i want. I ended up stripping about 4 threads in 1 crank hole out of the 6 holes due to me not realizing the big difference in depths of flywheel and felx plate bolts. I found a set of ARP bolts that measure...

    I actually got the mounts from Rock Auto maybe 2 years ago. I just got mounts for an 89 vert instead of my hatch. After some year in the early 90s I believe all fox cars came with vert mounts. Can't even remember how much they cost but it wasn't much. I didn't want all the extra vibes associated...
