I know this thread is a little old, but does anyone know what bolt is used for the smaller 351 4V heat shield?
I have the shorter/smaller one that StangLover has in the second pic in his post above. It has a smaller bolt that goes into the manifold itself and not from a stud on the block.
I...
Fair enough. I've been wondering about that! So I re-read the info on the car and the motor came out of a 73 Torino 351C CJ car. If my memory serves me, didn't the 73 Clevelands take regular fuel? Hmm. I appreciate the help and ideas!
Exxon 93 and Lead additive per tank since it was done back in the day. I don't know if it had hardened seats, but the last owner only put about 1000-2000 miles on it since the 83 rebuild when it was parked in 84. He would start it from time to time, but never really drove it between 1984 to...
I think we have a winner on this one! I'll enjoy it! I've been having really bad un-burnt fuel smell issues (I don't mind it, but the fam doesn't like riding in it) and I wanted to see if I could dig up info on the cam, etc from the parts list. I've set the idle mixture, timing is pretty...
I actually knew the guys that did the build and they were huge Ford/Cougar 351W guys. They convinced the guy who had it rebuilt to put in the aftermarket Sealed Power Boss 351-like cam . Who knows if they would've used Chevy parts but not a bad idea to figure out the part number. ...
I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on my motor build and help identifying a part number.
I recently found the rebuild receipt that came with my 72 Mach 1. The motor is a 351C and the parts list date is 9/2/1983. Since the car sat for 30 years it is a fairly fresh ...
My 72 had black crinkle paint covers that were looking tired.
I searched the web and found a Australian eBay seller: restocountry and the listing was for:
Ford V8 351 Cleveland Rocker Cover +Gaskets POWER BY FORD XW XY XA +XB XC XD XE
They were listed as new and not very cheap, but I...
Thanks for the help everyone! I took the axles to a local garage, got the bearings pressed on, and installed the axles a few hours ago. The noise is gone and the car has no noises from the rear end! Of course it was dark and now my front turn signals don't work but the interior dash lights...
