Autozone is pretty good about that. They have a large collection of tools. I think you can check online but I'm not sure. ... autozone or some other chain...
hi everyone. i have a 1977 mustang hatchback with no motor and am having trouble finding the original. can anyone tell me where i can find a 2.8 v 6?...
sorry, no help, but is there room to put a straight six? iirc, ford made a big one, like a 4.0 or something. straight sixes are sooooo much smoother than...
... Yep -- they are. The I-6 has better balance and crankshaft harmonics than any other common engine configuration EXCEPT the V-12. That's why BMW used them...
You can find most 2.8L V6's in kitchens across America as toasters, stoves, and other metallic objects with recycled content... There were two I6's in Ford...
... That's ... aw, now how would you know? ;) ... yep, pragmatism has it's virtues. in my [griggs mustang] track car, it's all SBF, all the time...since i do...
The Ford Capri 1976-77 had 2.8L motors. And there are Capri websites if you Google... Darius Rudis AOS Project Management Office (313)20-67009 drudis@... ...
... These engines were also used in many Bronco II's, Mustang II's, some early Fox body Mustangs. I don't think the inline 6 would be an easy swap into a 77...
After "shopping" my problem around two lista and a forum, the leading suspect, (for now) is a bad pilot bearing that's continuing to spin the input shaft even...
I know this isn't much help but a friend of mine has had to pull his t56 twice for the same worn component which I beleive was giving the same type problem....
Try putting the car up on jackstands so the rearwheels can freewheel, remove the coil wire to the distributor, have someone observe the rearwheels as you turn...
I agree my EX-SCCA 02 V6 has the exact same problem, not to mention the bearing makes noise when engaged after running a short time. Especially hard into...
I talked with my friend today on this issue. He pulled his t56 twice due to a broken input collar. Made shifting difficult both hot and cold. I haven't seen...
Pete: If the fluid is too viscus, the blocker rings will not be able to slow the gear set to speed the would permit engagement. What fluid are you using? ...
Yep. It's been about 5 years since my last post to this list (owned an almost-stock '91 GT, sold that and bought Pete Calabrese's '91 monster Mustang, then...
We're in the process of restomoding our 86 SVO. While I'm keeping the factory parts, and getting them fixed and painted, we're adding a fiberglass hood...

... A couple of options if you are willing to walk around the junk yards a little bit. The '79 Mustang had a rear bumper made out of aluminum. They are hard to...
I suggest starting with a 94-04 bumper as it's made from 0.044 sheetmetal and is much easier to cut than the ones found on earlier mustangs, such as your 86...
Since this is a handling related list, and, well, weight distro is important, some cat over at corner-carvers said he was able to achieve 50/50 out of his...
=8-O I guess if you had no other alternative. I would be very afraid of a significant pendulum effect there. Perhaps fill the rear seat wells with lead, but...

My old CP 86 Mustang was close to 50/50 with driver and heavy ass Dart block, and I posted pictures of that on CC, but I sure the heck didn't make a lead rear...
My suggestion is only to replace the collapsible bumper mounts. They weight something like 8-10#, and can be replaced with solid steel tubing. The tube size is...
IS it the rear main? That heavy accummulation on the heads (ABOVE the crank, & OUTSIDE the bellhousing) makes me suspect your breach is topside. Rear of the ...
