    Mike's 302 to 351W Swap.

    Just pulled the trigger on the ARP studs. Got them for $126 on ebay. I will hopefully never have to worry about them again. Also bought a trick flow push-rod length checker. Wondering what clutch i should replace mine with? Anyone have suggestions? Looking for mostly a street clutch, with some...

    Did some work on the Mustang Saturday. Got the tap out and chased all the head bolt threads. Also cleaned the gasket material off the new-ish heads.

    Thanks Dave, i will look into the costs. Im going to do some looking around today to see what prices i can dig up, i guess if i was going to spend the cash id rather have the studs, but i need to find out how much less the bolts are. Cheapest place so far i found is Summit, anyone know of...

    I actually do plan on running boost. But the 351w doesnt have forged pistons. So im worried about adding boost without changing the pistons. So that will prolly be a different build. For now we will stick with n/a.

    I looked into it and the 94-98 351w blocks didnt.come with tty bolts and many have re used them. Its about 140 for the kit. Ive done them before but not surd if i want to spend the money. Still on the fence tho.

    Bought an injector refresh kit today off EBay. Like this model here: Bosch Type I V8 Universal Injectors Seal Kit Orings Set | eBay For some reason the lightning 351w came with puny 19 lb injectors, so i am going to swap in a set of 24 lb units. Hopefully will try to get a head bolted up...

    Mike's 302 to 351W Swap.

    Well i going to make an effort to get the 1 missing head gasket this week sometime. Does anyone know if i can re-use the stock head bolts? Are they TTY style or not? Also do i have to seal the threads? Possibly thinking about ARP studs, i have also put them on my Diesel.

    Which motor?

    I'm currently working on a 351w, id say go for the 351 at least so the block has potential to take more horesepower.

    Got a nice purolator filter on it. Also two pictures of the heads i picked up used. Came with 1.6 roller rockers and the girdle. Currently waiting on one more head gasket. For some reason the local auto store only had 1 in stock. Will clean up the heads and slap them on as soon as i get the gasket.
