351W dis-assembly pictures

here's some pictures of my 351w that i just got home day before yesterday and finally got to tear it down last night. of course im rebuilding the whole thing but just thought i would share some pics. engine is from a '85 Crown Vic police cruiser. it had everything on it except for carb and fly wheel, which included alternator, p/s pump, a/c compressor, brackets, aluminum 2v intake and everything else. most of the original stuff will be junked and ill keep the short block to work with. it also had a factory oil cooler setup (which ill prolly post for sale on here if anyone is interested). wish me luck building this beast.

 

Nice to have all the brackets when you get an engine. good luck with it.

 

So what are you going to do with it? Stock? 393/408?

 

that one part in the pic. there you might want to keep.
...they are hard to find

...Frank...

 

dont have a clue yet. might be something to decide on kinda quick though, huh? lol... i might post a poll later on and see what everyone thinks. i dont know if i wanna run a 393 or maybe just a 357 to beat around on the streets. oh, the possibilities...

 

whic part are u referring to Frank?

 

that pic. that has the part with the holes in it...

...Frank...

 

lol, good observation Frank. i thought the same thing, the big 300 lb peice of iron might be worth keeping

 

I am sure that is the piece he is refuring to but I think you should ship it to me:Handshake Know use in keeping that junk in the way.

 

Not sure why the tear down,,,, little bit of mechanic in the can, fresh air cleaner, should have been good to go!

Surprised cop car had 2 barrel. Good project start!

 

i want everything new in it. that's how i build all of mine. not to mention i may lean towards a stroker kit as well.....
