So I bought a new book recently. "Rebuild and modify c4 and c6 automatic transmissions" by George Reid. And in it he continually mentions the c5 transmission and how it has a locking torque converter. According to him it's a straight swap to put said converter on a c4, as long as you use the...

That engine might actually be a cleveland and not a 302. The valve covers and water pump don't look like windsor stuff.

You could always go to duraspark. I'm a big fan of stock parts upgrading.

One thing that confuses things is that the 335 and 385 engines are cousins. You can swap the distributor and timing cover between the 460 and cleveland.

According to Hot Rod this is a model of a '70 dragster. It sure doesn't look like one to me.

When I first got my mustang that was the plan, putting in a 429. The previous owner had the same plan he said he had a 429 for it and I didn't have the money to take him up on it. I definitely plan on building this one but I'm leaning towards replacing my 302 with a cleveland because of the...

Started my new job on monday(satellite tech) and yesterday went out to a guy's house that was stock full of projects. We did the install, and just as we were finishing up the guy asks out of nowhere if we know where any junkyards are. My trainer and I tell him of the three in the area and I...

Do you Have a lease agreement with your landlord? The contracts usually pretty limited on what they can be terminated for. Look it over you might just have to dig in your heels and fight till things get better.

I dropped off the 351w I rebuilt at a hot rod shop down the road to try to sell it. It has probably been close to 2 years so far with me actively trying to rebuild and test it. There was a lot of learning and redoing along the way. Hopefully the shop will have the right customers going to it for...

427 SOHC + 351 Cleveland = modern ford motors. Just wish they'd do some big blocks.

To be honest I can't blame him for putting lambo doors on one of our cars. The doors are huge. I'm kinda dreading parking my car in parking lots when I get it on the road.

MY GOD DID YOU SEE THEIR YARD!!! It's in Vancouver Washington. That's only 4-5 hours drive from me. I'm going to have to shedual a road trip.

That looks really good.

A couple people mentioned how they wished ford had made the milano concept in an earlier thread. I stumbled across an Australian posting a picture of his falcon and behold it was the milano. A picture of the same year car i found on the net...

That would explain why I haven't seen one. My 72 is earliest model I have worked on. Can't you just put a two piece on them though?

I have never seen a one piece eccentric. What models were they on?

I'm kinda disappointed. It mentions movie cars but didn't list a '59 Miller Meteor.

Is it just me or is there a bottle of alcohol on top of that car?

Do you have a cleveland or 302? If it's a 302 the intake manifold can leak sending coolant into the combustion chamber through the intake ports. Does the car smoke at all?

From the description "The stock eccentric drags across the pump arm resulting in high friction and wear to the pump arm." That is just wrong(incorrect). Eccentrics are two pieces and roll across the pump arm. This widget is overkill. There is a reason it hasn't been developed before now. I...
