    To 4v your '72 Cleveland or not to 4v, that's the question.

    They are both canted valve heads and I've run both with efi. I can tell you with a mild roller cam those closed chambered 4v heads don't have a flatspot that I've ever experienced and pull hard to 6800 rpm with my setup. Nothing wrong with 2 v heads however there's no denying the 4v head.

    Convert Auto to Manual

    Like you I can't answer for a 71 to 73 floor but I've done it 4 times into 67 to 70 cars. 351W to 429 in the 69 and it fit perfectly no cutting anything.

    Convert Auto to Manual

    Yes it is a separate component but cables flex and forks create exhaust interferences, the internal slave is clean, and I've done about 4 t56s into 67 68 cars with no floor mods at all.

    Convert Auto to Manual

    Call Modern Driveline and find out which trans best fits your needs. If they say a t56 will fit that would be my personal choice because of the hydraulic throw out bearing, how they shift and multiple shifter locations etc. The folks at modern driveline sell complete conversion kits too which...

    Pulling the trigger on my 351C rebuild

    I used many of these parts as well and that exact roller cam but went with massflo efi, edelbrock aluminum heads and a 4r70w with 3.70 gears Smooth idle and lots of power. If I did it again today I would stroke it to 393 and use Atomic efi to save money on the massflo kit. The 4r70w is a game...

    Doors out of Alignment

    This is very common with older unibody convertibles. Have the suffrage connectors installed but not at the proper gap, make the top gaps too big because even with the connectors it will still close up when set back down. If there's rust In the floors don't waste time and money do it correctly...

    Fuddling electrical failure 72 convertible

    I do all kinds of upgrades and engine swaps and there are some points that can't be skipped being proper grounding and supply voltage. The store bought molded terminal battery cables are garbage and you can in 50% of them simply pull the conductor out of the terminal. Buy good metal terminals...

    New engine new vibration

    No matter the brand check runout, welds and balance weight of parts when you can, new does not mean good anymore but stoked you found it!

    New member eager to learn from this forum!

    If you do all of that it would be a crime not to install a 4R70W trans and msd atomic fuel injection as well. You will have great drivability and with even 3.70 gears still cruise at 2200 rpm at 75 to 80 mph. The trans alone makes the car so much better to drive. Congratulations on retirement...

    Vibration

    Yes it may be original but they use rebuilt torque converters which are sometimes bad, the converter could also not be fully engaged when bolted in and could also have the wrong flexplate or harmonic balancer. It sadly could be internal if the rebuilder used new pistons. It could also be a...

    Electric mirrors anyone?

    Hey why don't you tell them who really gave you the idea and details on this? Here you go I'll save you the trouble it was Robin Persad from Birmingham AL, USA. We talked about folks like you who take credit for other people's genius. SMH!

    the v6 shares the SBF pattern that is 260 to 351c and most L6. a stock v6 will handle up to 600hp all day every day provided you do the valve body upgrade that baumann offers. its sometimes called the J mod. the best v6 trans that already has the mods applied from ford is the 03 and 04. late in...
