Randy You might check for interference with the upright. Neil reported he couldn't get it to work. Don't know what the issue wasyou If you can, post a picture of it mounted on the bottom. Maybe a shield to deflect stuff going to the cavity? Paul

Doug, is this the bracket you're referring to If so, it bolts to the head of the Boss302. The boss on the block appears to be the mount for the smog pump. Hard to find pictures on that but I've seen a couple showing the pump in that location and it appears to be mounted to the boss in question.

Randy, You do understand, Want and Need are both four-letter words and completely interchangeable. :)inj There are a couple differences in the EightStack and the TBI. The EightStack, the injectors are inside the castings that replicate the body of a Weber 48IDA. The injectors are situated above...

In a recent conversation with Chuck S on this, I learned he had followed the suggestion of adding the foam blocks to his RCR tanks. The results were 'less than stellar'. He said it doesn't stop the fuel slosh. Maybe he'll chime in and add his experience. I am considering adding baffles to...

Worked very well. I used the cotton ball method to put it in. I made an extension for a sandblaster to do the tubes. The longest one was 28" so I was able to get in from both ends. They make a tool that you can drag through to blast and I also see some comments about pulling a wire brush through...

Randy I used ZyBar to coat my last set of Cobra headers, inside and out. These are links to the site: Zybar Instructions The instructions outline the procedure for coating the insides. Very pleased with the product, however, it is not cheap. They also have a service that they will do the coating...

Is this the same as the SAE papers? They were gathered by Roy Lunn and are made up of about 121 pages. Various copies of the PDF have circulated and are probably available somewhere on this forum Paul

Neal Stanceparts also offers 110mm cups. Did you raise this question to them when you made your initial purchase or when you ran into issues? The ones that I have seen on a SLC did install the shocks with the rod down and the cups on the bottom/upright end. Paul

Does anyone have pictures of the front coil-overs with the StanceParts AirLift installed on an RCR GT40? I am told by some they don't fit, I am told by others they have them and they work fine. Don't know if it may have been a singular build issue or if the builders had to make modifications to...

David, Thanks for the pictures, nice motor. Haven't had much luck in finding the purpose of the boss. I think it is probably smog-related but not sure. I've learned some of the supercharger companies use it to mount their brackets but can't find any Ford brackets that are associated with the...

Not even close - it is on the passenger front side of the block. Exactly opposite of the clutch linkage area

On the face of the Ford BOSS302 block is a 3/8-16 boss, located on the passenger side, below the cylinder head. Most all alternator mounts I've seen use the holes in the head to mount the alternator/bracketry. Any tips on what this boss was used for so I can search out the bracketry associated...

As I await the delivery of my RCR GT40, I am digging into the lessons others have learned/solved. I am researching the front end of a small block: water pump, alternator, A/C compressor. I see all the modern approaches but curious how it was done on the originals. I have not been able to locate...

Randy, Most lifts are designed to work with a 4" thick, 3000psi concrete - the typical floor found in garages and dealerships. Once you've picked a brand and model, ask them for an installation book. That will outline their requirements. I doubt you'll find it any different. One caution: the...

Randy I am starting in on my 5th ITB setup and think I've finally learned enough that I don't get the jitters when I go to start it up. Some points that may help: Remember, you get exactly what you pay for. There is a reason for the dollar difference between SpeedMaster and Borla. ITB's are...
