If i remember correctly from messing with my 300ci I6 autozone sells a tool that remove and install press in rocker arm studs. It might work with those as well.

I'm for rebuilding the whole thing. Of course the engine work is what i like most about the hobby so any chance I can get to pull one apart I take it. Besides the bottom end is not near as complicated as the top.

Started kleaning all the engine parts I have for it in my parts washer.

I agree 100%.

Ethanol is kind of a give and take fuel. It's hindrences are the fact that it is more corrosive than gasoline so if your running pure ethanol it will rot your tank and valve seals. It is also harder to ignite. On the other hand since alcohol fuel stays cooler temp before burning so you can raise...

Welcome. Good to know I'm not the only red head here.:P

Looks like just a gasket from here. How thick is it?

Welcome. Love the convertable.

The reason our car looks like the shelby is because "bunkie" knudsen liked the way the shelby's looked. The prototype that became our car was a rejected clay mockup intended for the 1969 model with a front end similar to the shelby.

That may be an ugly mustang but its a beautiful camero.

I'm told, because i haven't had it on the road yet, that my mustand reads that it overheats at idle also. I was told it was the aluminum intake manifold transferring heat to the temp unit too efficently, but like i said i haven't drivin it yet so i'm going by what the previous owner said.

I was just at the car show here in henderson. I actually live not far from where it's happening. I'm really hoping to put my car in it soon.

Right so now that, that is out of the way. Because the tunnel port head is so rare it might not have been tried before. It should bolt right on. The manifold would have to custom made. But the benifit of trying to put it on the cleveland is the large main bearings would let you rev the engine...

No, no they're not. The boss 302 which came out in 1969 used the same heads as the cleveland but the tunnel port 302 which was the same block as the boss had huge ported heads that more resembled the boss 429 heads or the 427 SOHC heads. The heads proved futile on the track because the 302's...

Yeah the restore is only phase one for me. I'll probably be wrenching on my car forever.

I've been wondering for a while now if anyone has ever tried putting 302 tunnel port heads on a cleveland. I know the 302's couldn't pull enough air for them to work properly but i wonder if a cleveland could.

If it's out there it would be one cool ride.

I'm an Inside wireman (electrician).

Me at home.

I don't know about the v8's but the on the 300 inline's the favorite upgrade is to stick a 240 head on it in order to raise compression.
