It's not an FFR GTM. I think it is an old Fiberfab avenger. Any other ideas? Dan

used cooler.... Beware. Why are they selling the cooler? Because the engine failed, and there are little pieces of material in the cooler that will not come out. Any used cooler should be cleaned, and Pacific Oil Coolers is one of the few FAA certified places that can do it correctly. Just...

bravo "I think Keatons parents should be sued for producing a defective product." I like this idea the best. I am reminded of an aircraft accident 20+ years ago. This is no made up story. I'm sure I could find the incident report. but the story is.... A married guy and married woman...

how 'bout this I don't claim to know all there is know about the SCCA. I avoid them like the plauge for many reasons, and suggest others do the same. What about if you just built the car to be as safe as you think it should be, and run it with who ever will let you run? I ran my Boss 302...

Dano says......... I know the Demons get some good press. But most of the folks I know have had troubles with them. Just my experience. I long ago decided I could not be an expert at everything. Carbs and Distributors I leave to the pros. My carb guy is Jesse Bigs. I can't sing his...

replace the cooler Most definitely. Or, ship it to Pacific oil coolers in CA. They can clean it up. They are the only certified place I know of. They cleaned my cooler a couple years ago. Wasn't cheap, but at 100 bucks was much cheaper than replacing my large oil cooler. Definitely...

Re: \'07 Boss 302 Mustang!!!! I like the new one. But, it needs minilites!

I agree. Replace the oil pump. get a new pump, and pickup. These are the most likely culprits. Dan

Re: What block preparation is required for dry sumping a SBF John -- Ref the Cleveland HV pump. Doug is correct. The cylinder heads pool oil in the heads. Combine that with the oiling system, and you are exacerbating the problem. The HV pump will put MORE oil to the top end of the engine...

Re: What block preparation is required for dry sumping a SBF My thoughts--- no need to dry sump. My Boss racecar is fine with a wet sump. Accusump is cheap insurance, and I use one. Get the electric valve version. If you go with the R-302 block, you will have a great oiling system, and...

Mark, I checked out your site. Very nice. Would like to see that car. When you go to Texas, let me know. I'll plan to come down and help out. Last time I took my dad and my kids. We had a good time just hanging out. It is about 2 hours from San Antonio. Everyone is super friendly. No...

Happy to help. I'll look up your father today. Those suits were probably worn at Laughlin AFB, where I'm stationed. It was one of the first U-2 bases. I know a small port Boss 302 will run very good. My buddies motor screams, and it is very simple. The track boss intakes can still be had...

Doug, Specifically, no. The AFR heads are just a little bit better than 4V heads. The Aussie heads are not as good as 4V. But, I have no data from the same flow bench operated by the same guy. so, the numbers are most likely a little bit off. The AFR's flow better on the exhaust, which...

we have a standing mile here in Texas as well. I was there a couple weekends ago. There was a new GT and it sounded great. Went 170+ Check out www.texasmile.com It is cooler than it sounds. I've seen bikes go 250+. Crazy. not many cars can get going over 200 mph in a standing mile...

Well, given the mission you describe for the 302, and your desire to run the Boss/Cleveland style heads....here is what I suggest. Get a set of the Aussie 2V heads. They are on Ebay pretty cheap. These heads outflow almost all other stock iron heads. They will not outflow modern aluminum...

Doug... If you would eloborate on your intended use of the car, I would offer some more insight. The Cleveland engine does indeed have issues, and I would NOT use it for a track car. I built many 351C's for the track and almost always had problems. mainly with the oil system. But, I did...

well, the good news..... I use the Hoosier street TD's and they stick like grade school kids boogers. I have found heat cycling the tires by running a couple of hot laps and then leaving the tires alone for a week really stretches the life. But, it takes 2 sets of wheels and tires to...

KEEP THE FAITH!!! I think this combo would kick arse and take names. The BOSS 302 or 351C 4V heads are awesome. The 2V's aren't bad, but the Aussie version is better. The 4V heads flow amazing numbers, and will give the aftermarket heads a run for their money. I have the flow numbers around...

just thought I'd chime in on the beauty of carbs. I run a single Holley carb on my Boss 302 racecar. Never have any problems at all. I use Jesse Biggs to prep the carb. It costs about 150 more than a stone stock carb, but well worth it. And I use a mechanical fuel pump, just like the NASCAR...
