    how much difference will a set of GT40s make with 2.02 valves over stock 302 heads

    GT40 heads are not the best in the world but they are way better than stock quite simply because the ports are cast better. 2.02 / 1.6 combo works fine on a small block Ford but actual performance will be governed by the how they are setup. If you are enlarging standard heads to accommodate the...

    Wilwood Pro Spindle

    Wilwood spindles look good What are the Pros & Cons of using either stock height (Mustang 2) or 2" dropped spindle It would appear that standard may be better with standard inboard mounting position which then has both arms tilting down toward the chassis so lower roll centre.

    302 pistons using 289 length rods

    Kev Agree with JacMac Maybe look around for some new old stock forged pistons as they have a thicker crown. Failing that the 5.4 is a good option I've done the 400 Chev rod combo (5.565") before with KB276 pistons and that works nice but a bit of a journey. 2.1" big end size and narrowed...

    4bbL vs weber or stack for max hp from 302

    This whole thing about 4 barrel vs IDA vs 4 barrel throttle body with modified 4 barrel intake vs Individual Throttle body injection is all seat of the pants stuff.

    Mounting UN1 upside down

    Update on my inverted UN1 Firstly I went with the Kennedy 157 tooth Bell-housing as a starting point. I think this is originally for the Panterra It is a very nice unit and the cost was not excessive - Refer Pics I will have a spacer between it and the UN1 The attached picture shows the mocked...

    Core Plugs

    If the block is a little corroded or worn from previous attempts, it would be easy to get a machine shop to make you a slightly oversize aluminum one. I have made them before based on the steel ones. As far as i remember I went for 4-5 thou interference and just put them in the ice box to cool...
