Hey Everyone, I am building a 351W for Luxstang.  Unfortunately I am a little colorblind.  Can you guys please tell me which of these is a close match for Ford Blue?  

I am wondering whether the pair of 1971 351 4V Exhaust manifolds I have(tranny type/power steering option not known) will fit in my 1973 Mustang. If you are in possession of a pair of 1973 351 4V Auto Trans with Power Steering Exhaust manifolds and could provide me with some photos, I would be...

There is a Craigslist seller in Murrietta, CA. He won't ship me the item, so I am looking for someone to help with the purchase. I would send you the shipping box, the shipping label, the cash for the buyer, plus $10 for yourself. You goto the buyer, stick the item in the box, and deliver to...

Situation: I will be utilizing a 1980's Ford HEI distributor in my 1971 351C. I was very careful to match it up to the original. I pulled two or three from the boneyard, and would like to have the bearings replaced, whether or not they are needed. I will probably do the original, then do two...

Okay. I have my garage clear of cars. I got about $3500 to buy new "organizational" material....to me that is $500 of XX and $500 of pinup girls and $2500 miscellaneous stuff. I have a Southern California slim 2 car garage. It will need to house mostly auto tools, but some gardening...

Okay. I am sick of you guys sending me emails on a weekly basis begging on your hands and knees for me to come back....or maybe that isn't what you were begging for. But I don't go that way...anymore. So, I am back...with a vengeance. For those of you who don't know me, you will find me to...

I thought someone had posted a video/photo of the venerable 351C two piece rear main seal install. Didn't come across one in the search. Perhaps someone can enlighten me in this regard. Outside of that, I believe the key is to: 0. I guess most people like to spend $30 for a pair of...

First, because the FREEZE PLUG kit I bought for my 351C build had a 2 5/32 plug in it for the rear cam/expansion plug, and the size of the hole in my block is 2 1/4, I am assuming there are two different sizes of expansion plugs for this application. This question is for the 2 1/4 application...

I am a vital component on a 351C block, and can be either 2 5/32 in diameter or 2 1/2 in diameter. (Actually, I think it was a 2 1/4" ....sorry about that). And when you buy your "aftermarket" parts kit, the kit will not have the component in the size for your build. What am I????? And...

At this rate, not sure I will ever get done.... (If someone wants to tell me how to decrease my picture size, I am not beyond being told what to do...unless you are a woman...unless you are my wife. In the mean time, for novice users, you can press/hold [CTRL and -] to decrease photo size...

So I have undertaken the arduous task of painting my block...and then waiting the inevitable year for the paint to dry..because as we all know, nothing is more exciting then waiting for paint to dry. Here are photos of the results...sorry, those are the biggest pictures I can post. Also, 351C...

lollerzlollerzlollerzlollerz After sitting on my parts/machined block/heads for 2+ years, I have begun my motor build- 71 351 Boss to stock specs to be replace 302 in my 73 Convertible. My frustration has been 1. Lack of "COMPLETE PARTS LIST" which would not only provide the "enthusiast"...

Well, as eveyone knows, Luxstang was back wreaking havoc here on the west coast. This is what transpired, more or less. The story begins after my wife and I departed from Luxstang and his "crew". It was about 11 PM in Santa Monica. No sooner had Luxstang turned the corner and disappeared out...

I would sure like one of these puppies... http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/engine/hrdp_0908_ford_427_cammer_build/viewall.html

I think between the people who I have confirmed as guinea pigs, and a few who may be guinea pigs, I am in good shape. Thanks for all the views. James

I am always suspicious when someone paints an origina, garaged car with 25k miles on it, replace the motor, rebuild the trans. $25k. No Takers...

I have an interest in purchasing this model carb, http://www.ebay.com/itm/1970-1971-FORD-MUSTANG-BOSS-302-351-HOLLEY-CARBURETOR-6129-D1ZF-9510-VA-CARB-/200945992991?ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:US:3160 but being a newbie do not know how to discern the following: 1. I do see this is a hot air choke...

Quite a discussion regarding 4 bolt main 351C 4V motors. The question arose how can you tell without dropping the oil pan. How about going over to Harbor Freight and buying one of those probes with a video camera on the end? Next oil change, stick that probe into the oil pan and have a look...
