Non-FE Discussion Forum / 1966 f100 delux two tone paint
« on: March 23, 2024, 11:27:54 AM »
I am getting ready to paint my question is about the inside of the bed color, the truck will be black and white with the hood and top rails of bed in white so how was it done inside the bed in main color (black) or secondary color ( white). I have seen it both ways and was hoping somebody here could set the record straight.
Thanks

Non-FE Discussion Forum / Axle bearings
« on: September 18, 2023, 06:30:19 AM »
I have a 9" axle that keeps burning up sealed axle bearings. Everything looked good but I had machine shop push new bearings on just because I was there I put new seals in axle less than 500 miles bearings were junk they are sealed bearings so the machine shop checked axles and put new bearings on again same thing in a week. I haven't had housing put on a fixture but using a solid shaft going all the way through it seems straight nothing is tight going together and both bearings are going junk at same time. What am I doing wrong. Thanks

FE Technical Forum / Why question continued
« on: July 06, 2022, 09:09:10 AM »
Why did ford not cast all FE blocks as 427 casting with different bore size, why are they still changing bellhousing patterns. I would like to ask current team a hundred questions but I guess that's part of it like family frustrating as hell but don't ever say what I say about my brother.

Non-FE Discussion Forum / E.P.A. Passing out fines
« on: June 12, 2021, 06:10:28 AM »
One of the little shops i follow on YouTube was audited by the E.P.A. sales of tuning items that he didn't even install got him fined $18,000 they said it could have been $180,000. The channel is p.f.i  speed if you want to look it up. The scary thing is they wanted names and addresses of the people who bought the parts. RPM act now

FE Technical Forum / Edlebrock pro flo 4 efi
« on: July 28, 2018, 10:59:54 AM »
Has any body used this system it is selling for 1800$ about half of what it was a couple years ago if I remember correct. Fitech and holley sniper seem to have had an effect on prices in the market. This looks like a lot for the money if you figure the intake is almost half the cost.

Sorry I don't know how to put the craigslist post on here, but if you check California craigslist Modesto a father and son have a collection of fe engine parts along with mustang stuff they have been working on since mid 70s it isn't any thing to do with me but somebody might find something they want.
