Unreal build man.. I look at your trucks body and wish mine was even close to yours! I paid twice as much for my 55' r100 and it needs more...
So, I just picked this 55' up in Wilmington, CA from a rad dude who wrenched on it here and there. It most definitely needs work. The only bad...
Found a Husky 3/8 drive Ratchet in my 55' Chevy pickup the day i bought it, just as i lost my Husky 3/8 drive two days before i bought the truck!...
i cant find that crossmember anywhere! its for a small block ford conversion right? thanks!
so my clutch clave cylinder went out on me, and i ordered a new one... however when it comes to bleeding, i have no idea what i am doing.. could...
have any pics or anything of that?
so after i pick up an intake mani, carb, radiator and fab my motor and tranny mounts, i will be installing a 302 and t5 into my 60' f100... who...
Good work man. Its cool seeing another young gun out there
im having the same concerns with my 1960 f100.. im not too sure on how im going to do this.. im going from a 223 with three on the tree to a 91'...
So i now have a 302 and a T5 out of a 92 mustang, and im not worried about finding a clutch kit, yet i am worried about the clutch setup... im not...
i know, i cant wait! i saw your thread on the 58, and read you were going to do the same 302 and t5 swap.. did you go with hydrallic or cable clutch?

i want to put a T-5 behind it
im putting a five speed into my 302 sbf, and from what i believe it is a similar swap as far as what you need.. so what i think you would need...
Just bought this 302. it runs and only has 50,000 miles on it.. picked it up from an older guy in ojai CA. its fuel injected which i dont want so...
could i use the bellhousing off of the same tranny for the M5R2, so i can keep my stock hydrallic clutch?
the clutch in my 60' f100 is already a hydralic.. can i use the same master cyclinder? or at least the same mount for the M5R2
what do i need to bolt up a t5 to a 351w? really debating on transmissions:confused:
What is the best way to store your engine while you have it sitting for a while? oil in? dry?
just picked up a 351w and i need a tranny.. want a manual, yet what would you reccomend? and what all do i need to run it? thanks!

Is it more exspensive to rattle can it? or is it similar in price to pay someone to spray gun it?
