RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

Hey Quik I feel bad, but it'll be a new beginning for your car and although it may be a little longer before you can get it done it will turn out AWESOME in the long run if you decide to go with the 408 :D.

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

I'm sorry to hear that dude, I've been in your position, it sucks[:@]

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

here are some pics of the setup

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

sorry to hear that man. that sux. but, sounds like you got a good set of plans for a new engine, so, good luck, and let us know about it when u get it going

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

sorry to hear your troubles but, think of the day you start the new one ( probly be steering with your pants!)

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

just looked at a 392ci...fawk almost 7k for that motor.

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

Sucks man, but you're dead positive it's the block itself?

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

im betting it is. motor has seen 270* 2 yrs ago and that was basically last time it was driven. and this motor was only going ot be a get me thru motor to i had time and money to build one. looks like im building soon now. roughly how much was yours

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

I'm going thru the same thing at the moment Quik.
I spent all this money on the top half of this motor,supercharger.all the electronics,and the dyno tune.
On the dyno it started to spit oil out of the valve covers under boost.
Turns out that i have bad rings.Did a leak down-or tried to. At 30psi from a compressor it was coming out of the other head.lol.
I started thinking to myself,#@$#@#@#@. just like you probably did.
Any ways, i figured the cheapest way to get out of this mess was to go .030" over with good pistons and a 306 cube.
The stroker would be nice but it involves getting so much more money to get it back together, money i did'nt want to spend.
With the 50 ounce setup that i have i dont need to buy anything. I only need to get the machining done and put it back together.

Good luck as you think this thru.

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

yea i had oil puking out the valve cover bolts, blow by and no vaccum what so ever

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

ok I want the valve covers

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

and the cam

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

and by the way..I don't feel sorry I'm glad so it's going to push you on to a better engine hope that makes since....roundman found I think 438 for like 6500 that made 575hp

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

this was going ot be my nitrous scatter motor. i could very easy run a 11 with this setup and my car. my next motor i want 11s on motor which shouldnt be an issue and 10s on spray. maybe ill put together a motor i can compeat with in some 5.0 classes.

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

then just read the rule book very carefully

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

for everyone that is interested in the valve covers. they have slight grinding on them to help clear with the GT40 intake. basically just some of hte high rise part is notched but its the part that is under the intake that you will never see. i did however polisht them up some. they were wet sanded with 1200 and then rubbed to shine with mothers. so whoever is the lucky person that recieves them ill will clean them up some and make them shiney again

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

me,me*L*..look on the bright side our boys will kick the superbowl champs ass

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

anything goes to the person who is truely commited on buying something. its only fair that way.

i dont have paypal but im good for shipping the goods out. just think of it like this. whatever you buy off me goes towards my next motor

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

Too bad....but i would'nt mind buying the heads....but my new black 93 cobra wheels kind of broke me for now....but your not the only one that's having problem's since i just got my motor back together and can't get the damn thing to run right for nothing,plus the leaking valve cover is pissing me off too...sorry to hear that but **** happens..

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

BBK unequal shorty headers...$75
BBK OR H pipe....$75


How much to ship these to NH?
And what condition would you rate them on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being new, in box?

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

Man my condolences go out to you.. but now you will have a new start and beginning. Ya a big engine im sure is gonna cure it. Get that 351 or 408!

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

i have a question on the throttle body and spacer, what kind and how much? i almost bought acufab today but i will wait until you are write me back i might think about those heads to, do you think the valves will clear since i have a f-303 cam and stock bottom end?

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

Im interested in the h-pipe if it will work on an 84 gt

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

you will need a double hump crossover aka trans mount

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

i quik i will take ur heads for 300 bucks email me somewhere to ship the money and we will talk how we will do this as far as shipping is concerned

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life

McKees Rocks pa 15136....go to www.UPS.com for shipping costs

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life

for the TB its a PP 70mm and a BBK70spacer. the TB has been ported some. it had some inperfections in it i didnt want there. i would let both go for $140

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

also made up my mind. new protene poly motor mounts for sale $75 only been in car for about 3weeks. had put K member in and that was it

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

well i want them so tell me how u want the money i can send mon

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

Way too much to tell you the truth.
Block itself was around 1800 bare(fms r302).
Nothing at all done to it.
And I got a complete longblock as well, AFR 185's to a nice Canton pan.
And all the goodies in between
Paid around 6grand for the damn thing.
Lifetime warranty and such though.

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

well someone offerd more for the heads. all im saying is ppl will have money sent out on monday. i never expected this many ppl to want these heads this soon. im not trying to gulge anyone. i just want to start my savings for new motor. so before i hit the sack tonight which will be soon. 11pm Eastern is the dead line for the heads

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

Quik, I'm going to pass on the headers and H-pipe. Thanks anyway.



vfast, you said what? ;)
Have to admit it was a good game played by both sides. Game seem to shift to the Patriots when their kicker planted the ball down on the 5 yard line. Patriots seemed to have woke up after that.

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

what the deal with the pan and the head steads

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

damn dude, sorry to hear about your loss. why dont you just get the block bored, or has it already been done. i got rid of my 87 GT this weekend after the mains starting making some serious noise. still got 3k for it, wich is more than i got in it, but anyways. i feel for you, hope you dont have a dog, bet that b@#ch would be beat to hell right now. hope everything works out. if i wouldnt have sold mine those heads would be coming my way no matter the price. why are you selling all youre topend stuff, it will all work on a 351????

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

thats why im selling everything, something ive been thinking of


pan is probably staying unless i got 351 and they are head bolts not studs

RE: sad day in my 5.0s life
 

I'll take the intake. PM me your details.
