I know I will probably sound like a noob here. But i'll risk it because as you could tell from any of my messages I have no useful info to contribute. So here goes.Does anyone know of a websiteI could look at which will tell me every part of classic mustang engines. I would like to learn more about the engines. I know about the history of the cars from my Mustang Books, but that gets boring, I want to get technical now.

 

I know its another book, but have you tried the "How to rebuild small-block ford engines" book? I'm sure that has what you're looking for. I believe that is the book i've heard great things about

 

Ya, but I was hoping I could just see something on the internet and not have to buy anything. I could just got to borders though. They probably have taht book.

 

Ya just checked and borders has it, unfortunately the page is really small and i cant make it bigger to see how much it says it costs

 

Do you know what engines it covers? Like Sizes

 

Well I've personally never used the book, I've just heard great things about it. Since its for small block its probably covering mostly the 260, 289, 302, 351w. Since the windsor family is all similar I'm guessing it mostly has that, and I'm sure it include hte 351c as well, because you can't have a ford small block book without that engine

but anything above that is considered a big block so it wouldn't be in that book.

 

Thanks, found it on targets website for $13.57 and on their site i can see the cover and it "Covers all years and models: 221, 260, 289, HP289, 302, Boss 302, 351W. How to remove engine from chassis, strip it down, examine parts for wear, and replace engine on chassis."

 

that book is awesome. covers just aboutevery small block.


Covers 221, 260, 289, 302, 351W, 351C, 351M & 400

even though some of the above may be big blocks...

This book is great on technical advice and explaining what does what and why. I rebuilt a 302 using this book my first time, and i'll put it to you this way, when I was done, the engine ran... so that's at least a start!

check out half.com or ebay... you can pick it up for way less than borders.

 

I think I'll jsut go to Target as I said ^ its $13.57

 

I'd recommend spending the $20 on the Tom Monroe book, "Rebuilding Small Block Fords." It's worth the money.
