Great tech as always!
I've got a new Offenhauser cast aluminum universal throttle/gas pedal assembly. Part # 6244. It has multiple holes to raise or lower the pedal...
TP Tools has a disposable cup set up for their guns. http://www.tptools.com/Disposable-Gravity-Cup-System,3336.html?b=d*8052
Hey it's your money run whichever intake you want. I've ran them both on the same vehicle and I won't waste my money on the DP. You realize...
Here's the crossmember you need. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/trd-4037/overview/ You will also need a pair of motor mounts for a 300...
Maybe Mercedes?
That truck behind the fire truck might be a 53 but it's grill is a 54!:D
The AOD doesn't have a kick down, It's a TV ( throttle valve ) . You need to have it hooked up and adjusted or you'll fry the transmission. You...
79-91 Crown vic would probably be the easiest to find. Otherwise you could spend the big bucks and get an aftermarket one.:D...
No!:D But you could give me your 64.;)
Yep you can use the starter out of the 85. Did you get the block plate with the transmission?
Say it's for a C6. It's just simpler and you won't confuse the counter guy/kid. Just ask for a flexplate for a 1985 Ford van with a 351W and an...
The 85 van AOD should have the large bellhousing so I'm pretty sure it should be a 164 tooth flex plate. So a 351W( 5.8L ) flexplate should work...
The delivery guy wasn't the seller. He just ran and picked up the car for Richard. The previous owner contacted Richard about buying the car. At...
Jay why not pop the other axle out and drop the pumpkin while you have it tore down this far? That way you could inspect the gears/diff and...
It's on tonight ( Sept. 10th ) at 10:00 PM ET. And it's replayed at midnight ET tonight which would make it Sept. 11th.
I ship a lot of parts with UPS. I ship the stuff at a local hardware store that is also a UPS service center. They charge $4.00 per package. But...
3.25 still isn't enough gear. You need a minimum of 3.73's but 4.10's would be better with a 302 in a truck. If you are running an OD trans then...
The 302 has it's peak torque at a much higher rpm then the 300 does. You can tow with a 302 you just need a lot more gear. With the right...
300!:)
How about not fail at all! The damn thing didn't even have 200 miles on it!!
I put one of those turds in my brothers late model car just before winter a couple years ago. It made it one month before it stuck open and he was...
I had a wheel a while back that looked like that. I was told it was a Fenton.
Jay it looks like you've been busy since you picked up the parts! They are looking good, nice work.
Well I guess one out of two isn't bad.:D Jay if you don't have another turn signal assembly, I've got another one. I think my other one is the...
I was hoping the king pins wouldn't come out too hard with a press and torch.
I've bought a couple cheap no name reciprocating saws and they didn't last thru the first cut before the gears were toast!! Whichever engineer...
I swear by Milwaukee Sawzalls!! Right now I own 3 of them. I abuse them about as bad as you can! I cut up entire vehicles with them to scrap....
Looks like another fun project. Hopefully I'll be adding to your parts collection real soon!:)
I'm pretty sure he's running open headers in that video.
