Nice!! :2thumbs:
Thanks, but I'm only looking to get the steering and suspension off a CV. Computor, etc will probably come from a Mark VIII or Triton truck....
The heater control valve on the '72 Mav 302 w/AC doesn't close under vacuum. It doesn't leak vacuum and the valve can be opened and closed by hand...
I gotta see what the Interceptors go for. If I bought a whole car there'd be a deal made ahead of time with someone to haul it, do the paperwork...
Think I would (if I go ahead with it) buy a running donor vehicle to get the engine, transmission, computer, sensors, and harnesses. Will try to...
Thanks, Earl. Just couldn't face the drive alone. Would have been fun. I'll be reading the reports. Jim
Got it. Thanks.
Hope the Triton exhaust manifolds are as good. Think it'll need about 330 RWHP to get into the 12s and beat my buddy's Trailblazer SS. :D That...
I've drooled over the Ford Racing 5.0 but the price is way out of my budget. Also their Windsor 427 stroker. Just put a low ball bid in on a...
Just one drive shaft with U-joints. When you say 2 degrees down from the motor, would that be down from the crank flange center? Thanks for...
I could measure the angle of the balancer pulley in the donor car, use that as the trial pinion angle and tack the spring perches in place. Then...
Every day I'm getting closer to deciding to go ahead with the project. The show helped. I'm thinking 16" wheels. Not sure what size is...
Got the 5 degree rule from the article on fordification.com. There was a link to the article in post #1. Was looking for confirmation of that...
Good to hear. Hope mine stays straight too.
When the project sold for $50K I ran right upstairs to tell the wife. :clap: They notched the frame rails and flipped the 8.8 on top of the...
I'M WATCHIN' IT!! I just about fell over. I'm now leaning toward a Triton 5.4 rather than the Mark VII DOHC but other than that, its my project!!
Bryant, That gives me enough info to know if there's a problem or not. Will come back to this when the time comes. Thanks very much....
After the welding is done, if the differential cover is removed, would I be able to see if the axles are centered as they are pulled out and...
Problem is, the engine and transmission will be replaced with mod motor of some kind and I don't know what the angle of the tail shaft will be....
