I don’t crossbreed, but I respect the hard work you had to do to make it happen.
Glad these pictures helped. I’m not too sure about the difference in engine bay room with the older ones but I think it’s possible. I was able to...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] End of the long project. First test drive yesterday, need to fine tune everything but it definitely...
Thank you for adding this information. I’ll definitely give a look into it when I buy my next clutch disk. Also, thanks for the pilot bearing...
To bring closure and to help anyone else with a similar Ford transmission with this top shaft, I found out that a 11” GM 1 1/8” 10 spline clutch...
That’s a great idea! I was thinking about doing that, but after looking at some ball bearings I found a shielded KOYO that should work solid.
Thanks for taking the time for the dimensions. It is a 10 spline. After doing some research I believe a GM clutch might fit this. I’m going to...
That’s interesting. I’m using a hydraulic throw out bearing that’s supposed to be designed for a 4 speed top loader by RAM clutches. I had to saw...
Thank you!
I remember hearing about Ford producing transmissions for GM. I was looking at different clutch alignment tools and I found a series of GM ones...
[ATTACH] It seems like I could get the top shaft to work. Starting from the mating surface to the end of the top shaft it’s closer to 7”. And...
Thanks so much Steve this helps a lot! I do have the special 11” iron bell housing, but I’ll measure the shaft length and see if I can find a...
Ah so it is FE, thank you. Wouldn’t I be able to use a FE 11” clutch disk with a 302 11” pressure plate and just run a turned down bronze bushing;...
I tried over there but I didn’t get any responses so far. Thanks though.
Hello, Im finishing up a blow through 351W swap in my 62 Flareside and ordered a 11” 351W/302 clutch kit for a V8 pattern 3 speed I found....
lol didn’t mean to offend you or anything, but I’m all good and I appreciate your help.
I appreciate the help. I think I figured it out. I went back through and realized the bottom of the choke plate acts as a separator/atomizer for...
Thank you for letting me know! I’ll look into that adjustment.
The plugs have a few hundred miles and with the richer jet they were a darker brown while now they’re a bit more lighter brown and cleared up...
sorry, I forgot to mention that the 59 was what it had originally came with but I put a 64 from my spare carburetor in 5 months backs. It was a...
Thanks, what’s weird is that 59 jet is what was originally in the carburetor. But I’ll stick with the 64 for now.
Hey there. Do any of you know the original power valve size for a Holley 1904 carburetor on a 223 truck motor? (mine has no numbers on it) I...
I cleaned up the undercut on the valve seats, it’s really difficult to do it perfectly because of the angle the valves have. I separated the...
I’ll keep that in mind, Thank you.
Thanks for the pictures, I think I’ll leave the rings on and port out anything that is in the way. It’s hard to find a 262 around here, and if I...
Thanks for the info, and I think building up the 230 would be a great start for me until I’m done with college and have a budget I could actually...
Hello, this is going to be the first time Porting a cylinder head. The head has these metal rings that couple both inlet ports from the head to...
