    Hi there it seems like when the vehicle is cold the spark is weak and it takes up to several minutes of cranking to finally start. I crank for 20 seconds, wait for sarteer to cool a bit then crank agoan on off like this for like 5 minutes. It often I floods itself. It has spark and starts right...

    So I was inspecting this block I bought from the mechine shop for a build. I'm wondering what the heck when I saw this (Image). What do you all think? What are your opinions? Is this a crucial area for stress? Should I be worried about building this with this block if it is damaged? Please help...
  3. 1966 Ford Mustang (351w)

    Currently rebuilding a 351w to put back in it. Going to be swapping the C4 Trans out with a T56 or a TKO of some sort. The stock 351w only had around 208Hp but 315 tq. Hopefully I can improve with the new set up.

    What headers will fit my 1971 Ford Galaxie 351w column shift FMX with power steering?

    What camshaft should I run in my build? I’ve got a 289 that’s getting some 351w heads and a Holley 600 cam carb and a 100 shot of nitrous. What cam should I be running on this setup?
  6. Engine
    Hey y’all I’m trying to figure out a parts list for a mild 1969 351w build (less than 350hp) but I’ve never built an engine before. I’m 17 so I would like to do this as inexpensively as possible while still building a strong reliable engine. My list (let me know what y’all would add/change)...
  7. Mustang Pages (1979-1995)
    I’m buying a used 351W soon and was wondering if someone could help me come up with a list of parts to build it to around the 500 rwhp mark. I plan on swapping it in a fox body mustang and already know the parts for that, I just wanna figure out what parts I need to get a bone stock 5.8 to the...

    New member here... I have a 1996 ford f-150 xlt with the 351w in it. I want to lift the truck and do all that, but I need a mean street engine to put in it. I plan on doing a 408 stroker kit but I have no idea what kit to use, where to order it from, what heads to use, what cam to use, what...

    Hey all I have a small problem, I am currently rebuilding a 351w and am installing the harmonic balancer. The issue I am having is that when I press the harmonic balancer on the crank no longer wants to spin, the balancer bolt just keeps tightening and tightening. When I remove the balancer the...
  10. Exhaust and Headers
    I'm putting a 351W into a '67 Fairlane that will have a T-5 and a Z-bar linkage. No power steering. I'm thinking of using Hooker Headers PART# 6901-1HKR like these...

    Alright boys I'm finally posting here for help. Time to lay it all out for you.:frown2: I've owned a '78 XR-7 for about 6 years. 65k all original miles, 351w, FMX trans. Everything is stock except for an air cleaner upgrade, a new radiator, the plugs/wire kit I put on, a distributor, and an OEM...

    I've personally gotten to a wits end on this. So much that I'm seriously summoning the Car Gods and Gurus for some help on this one. Vehicle: 1986 Ford Mustang GT Convertible; 351W swap (1974 Ford Galaxie 500 block) She's a beautiful "Frankenstein" of parts from too many different years...

    You wouldn't think this would be difficult to find but I'm not having any luck. Does anyone know the piston dish volume for a stock '94, fuel injected 351W from an F-250?
  14. Stroker Engines
    Well, the 302 just blew in my '70 mustang while the 351w was in the machine shop, so this build was meant to be. I have a 1969 351w (9.480 deck height) and had a heck of a time finding a kit that would work, and I think I managed to find one: 12360-PS-F408W - Ford 408W Reverse Dome -22.0cc...

    I have a 1969 Ranchero GT with a C6 transmission. It was working fine a couple days ago. I go to put it in gear to day and the order of gears is reversed. When in park it is in park. When in reverse or neutral it is in drive. Drive and below are reverse. It is a column shifter. What is causing...

    I am recently new to the site, so hello to all. I acquired a 66 fairlane last year, which was running until I blew a head gasket. I just pulled the motor yesterday, but I am looking to purchase a rebuilt 302 short block to replace it, rather than taking the time to rebuild. As I have been...

    Hi guys, I am creating this post in hopes of getting some solid advice. So here's the deal … I have a 1993 Bronco with a 351W & a E4OD and we're at 276K miles. Recently the passenger side exhaust manifold cracked in half. Needless to say this created a huge exhaust leak and the heat burned up...
