    Awesome, thank you! I was going to go to the junkyard and rip an exploder apart, but you saved me all that hassle!

    Mike's 302 to 351W Swap.

    I moved the car tonight to its final engine/trans extraction point in the basement. Also did some heating/bending of the coolant tube. I got it to clear injector 1 with a little help.

    Hey, i know the feeling lol. I was collecting parts including the 351w for about 3 years before i started this.:smash: I know my stock engine will have the parts, but im trying to keep from ripping that engine apart, as i hardly have any time and space. As soon as that old engine comes out im...

    Ok thanks for checking on the rods. Consider the roller kit sold! I also want the gear and pin too. But i still have to buy the new (well prolly reman) dizzy. I have the remote mount that came with this engine will the shaft diameter be the same on all 351w dizzy's? Or should i buy the reman and...

    Please let me know on the rods, I am very interested. Thanks for the info on the gear, it was off Cledus's old black sunshine 302 distributor. I am going to have to purchase the correct one, still have to buy a new distributor as all mine are either remote mount or junk. I am also looking for...

    Well, finally got my tax refund. I ended up picking up a mustang for my brother yesterday in Maryland. Test driving it got me motivated again. Will sit down here in a day or two and order more parts. Included is a pic for your pleasure. Pretty stock, very well documented car.

    WTB 94-95 Mustang Coolant Tube

    Performing a 351w swap in my 89' fox. Im in need of a 94-95 Mustang coolant tube/rail. This is on the passenger side of the lower intake and carries the coolant from the water pump/intake to the heater core. This unit is much easier to form fit around injector #1. It looks similar to this...

    Anyone know why the coolant rail for the heater core works on my 302, but when i take it to line up with the 351W intake (Gt-40) it hits injector #1. DO i need a coolant rail off of a explorer or truck?? Also found out the 351w truck fuel rail wont work, very different, will have to remove my...

    Mike's 302 to 351W Swap.

    I need to get a few more parts before i start buttoning up the 351w. The old harmonic balencer is cracked, no sense in putting that back on so i need a new 28 oz one. Also need to get a new distributor and replace the gear still. I have been shopping around for the new pushrods in 7.950 length...

    Very nice! Tough to keep the projects going when your working outside in the winter. I usually work in my dads un-insulated garage and its sometimes colder than outside! Luckily this year we crammed my car in his basement. Hopefully there are some nice days scattered in so you can keep plugging...
