Also check to see what the choke (if it's an automatic unit) is doing. If it's got a manual choke, check to see that the butterfly is open. If it...
HUH ???
Yea, well I was a little wrong on this part, sometime around the early 80's, Ford started using alignment dowels to positively located the timing...
If you're buying new flat tappet lifters, do a close visual inspection on them before using them, Pay close attention to the bottoms, if something...
The APPEARANCE of any part is only a small part of it's overall quality. Only time and use will give the true story here.
The flat tappet lifter bottoms are given a convex shape (very slightly domed) to allow the lobe to rotate it in the lifter bore. And the bores are...
You mean a pre 70 timing cover and water pump. The blocks are all the same regardless of year as far as the timing cover and water pumps go.
Well I finally got around to pulling the heads off and am pretty sure the head is OK. The gasket appears to be blown. It's pushed the fire ring...

. You can have a ground through that path, but if the resistance through it is too high, it's not going to work as it should. Measuring the...
Yea, but there's not like a thousand welds in that path. Nor even 500. Even less thought the roof structure. (the joints at the top of the rear...
Thing about the unibody now is, you've got 40 year old spot welds transferring the current, there's not a single unrestricted path for the current...
It's overheated dozens of times in the past 11 years. Never blew a head gasket (Felpro expanded graphite sprayed with Copper Kote) I'm thinking...
Big Block Torino ? Try a 67 BB Stang !! That's the reason I cut these towers back first off when I bought the car and pulled the motor. I had...
