I ruined two Toploaders this way in the 80's. The BB input just did reach to the rear of the bushing I was using then (this after I figured...
Where do you get these ? Doesn't look long enough though. The Boss 302's used a longer bushing as they came with a big in/big out Toploader
Also beware of the 390 specific Toploaders. These have small input/output but the front snout that fits into the pilot bearing/bushing is shorter...
That would be the build date. (first time I've seen this stamping) The date the block was cast would be where the casting numbers are found above...
The heads will bump it a half point. Big question is, has this motor been rebuilt ? Very unlikely it hasn't at this late date so the stock ratio...
Don't know if you know this or not, but make sure the firewall's well reinforced where the master cylinder's mounted to keep it from flexing,...
Some of the Mark VII's had the HO motor with E7 heads. I had an 88 that did. Ditto for the later Cougar and T-Bird 5.0's. The 93 Cougar had the...
I would also install a manual switch, just in case the auto switch malfunctions.
Manual transmissions are easy if you go hydraulic clutch. Just gotta make sure the firewall reinforcement plate is large enough and thick enough...
Newer as in what ?
Check on either therangerstation.com or rangerpowersports.com on their V8 forums. If anyone's tried them, it would be someone there. There's...
Yea, the Tri-Y's fit like a glove in an 89 with a 157 tooth bell. Never tried the 88400's but I know others have and said they work too. The...
They'll work on a V8 Ranger too. Those and Shelby Tri-Y's.
I'm on my 2nd set of Hedman long tubes and with neither did I have any fitment issues. My car is manual steering manual brakes. No ground...
Ditto. I have Hedman longtubes and a Toploader 4 speed, manual steering, no bracket needed. One thing that does help with a V8 is cut the shock...
There's a trick to it, I don't recall which way off hand, but the spring that applies tension to the arm against the windsheild also applies...
Very ! :thumbs2:
:tsk: Shame on you for posting porn here :thumbs2:
Try looking uop Weber 32/36 DGV carbs . Those might fit that intake
I'll bet the carbs combined were likely too big. All too common problem with those who don't understand what makes them tic.
