Is this the pulley you have? https://marchperformance.com/ford-corporate-power-steering-single-groove-v-belt-pulley-502-c.html

Yep, this Scott Drake is a pos. No groove either side. No way it will work. Original was damaged. I can get a standard pulled on it.

I put on a new power steering pump using the factory bracket and picked up a Scott Drake Pulley for it. The pulley doesn’t line up. Needs to go on about another inch to line with water pump and main. Any body else have this issue?

I have a 73 Mach 1 Q code with the C6 transmission. A previous owner has done some "interesting" things to this car. I have attached some pictures of the current transmission configuration as well as the parts I think I need. I have the pan currently pulled and looking for some advice. If I...

Got the oil pan off. Thanks for the help. Had to lift the motor on the Cleveland. Didn’t have wood handy so used a couple of sockets. Worked perfect!

The “while I’m here” is how I ended up where I’m already at. Which led to the oil pan. Lol All started with a leaky power steering pump.

I have a 351C, can I remove the oil pain to replace the seals without removing the entire engine?

Thanks. Ironically, those are some of the exact items I ordered already. Let the fun begin!

Great info. Thanks. Some previous owner stripped pretty much everything that they deemed non-essential. I think they were all about the horses. It's definitely a project that the more I dig the more I shake my head and wonder what I got myself into. I am going the restomod route as so much...

Interesting. I bet that's what it is. It was definitely set up as a go fast at some point.

Thanks for all the input. I have decided to replace pretty much everything. If I'm going to take it apart might as well only do it once.

It's just a bolt. A fairly long one at that. It does have a fill hole. I plan on breaking it all down and checking everything. That's when I will weld it shut.

My 73 Mach 1 is missing the "emissions" canister that would normally be on the firewall of the passengers side engine compartment. The vent line has been cut off around the back of the engine. With the vented gas cap is this even needed? What would be some recommended ways to handle this...

There is a fill hole. The bolt in this hole doesn't even fit tight. Going to weld it shut. Lot's of things on this car makes me scratch my head.

Any idea why someone would drill a hole in the rear end???
