    Engine in…..new problems.

    Pat - your balancer is for an "internally" balanced motor and the spacing (so the web says) is for an 86 to 93 mustang assessory system. That may explain why it is much further forward. Note - Mine uses the conventional 28 oz.in. external balance and hence that part number I gave you. Ford...

    Engine in…..new problems.

    I am running a Ford Motorsports shorty water pump. Here is the front end. The CVF pulleys are single belt. The crank pulley requires a spacer which they sell, as does Ford Motorsports. You need to measure to determine what is needed.

    Engine in…..new problems.

    The Ford motorsports balancer is both 3 and 4 bolt. Pic attached. Mounted to a SCAT 302 crank in a stock 1986 Ford 302 block with stock timing chain cover. The balancer comes silver but my builder paints all of his black.

    Engine in…..new problems.

    I have the same Aviaid pan as you and am running a Ford Motorsports balancer M-6316-C351. The face of the balancer is exactly 2.75" out from the front face of the pan. I used CVF single belt pulleys which aligned perfectly with the use of one lower spacer on the crank. The back of the...

    Back up lights

    The Hella light looks very nice. I need them to pass CA registration, then they are being removed!

    Back up lights

    I've wondered the same thing. Of all the pictures I have of the Original road cars, none have backup lights with the exception of this car. I think they were added later, but don't have a source for them.

    NC Barn Find!

    I am going out on a limb and say it's a CAV from the way the front brake air inlets are formed on the edges. What are the two silver objects sitting on the hood?

    RBT 5 transaxle speedometer pickup

    Are you certain the drive is not installed? The ZF casting has an opening there and the bolt holds the drive assembly in place. If it's not there and there and the builder did not install it, I am not sure you can install one without disassembly of the ZF. You need to ask one of the experts...

    Safir starter clearance to frame? Starter hole cover plate from RCR.

    it looks to me like that's the bellhousing hitting the tub, not the starter.

    Safir starter clearance to frame? Starter hole cover plate from RCR.

    Check with Randy's Build. He has the same bell and starter. I believe your Tilton starter can also be indexed about the nose of the unit if necessary. Not sure why someone would have cut a giant hole in the sponson?

    Need cooling help please

    Mike: I would recommend you getting a 5 gallon water jug or large clean bucket. Mix your coolant and distilled water (recommended 50 / 50 mix) in that jug and let it sit overnight to make sure all air has purged from the mix. Evacuate your coolant system yet again and let it sit for 30...

    Good news Mike. The fact you can pull a vacuum and it hold is positive. Fingers crossed!

    Need cooling help please

    You are using silicone hoses? And many are leaking? Something does not sound right Mike? T-Bolt clamps are actually capable of crushing tube so this really surprises me. Especially a water pump outlet? Good ole hose clamp is all you need to hold pressure.
