That is a nice looking start.  Looks nothing like my 65 Comet,  My Cougar is in the same state of repair, except mine was wrecked on the right side.  Have the core support and right front battery apron removed. Stripping paint then sand primer repeat.  Good luck with the build. Clifford

I recently bought a Burette. Thanks to Jay for telling where to get one. The directions tell me to mix alcohol and water 50/50. Witch one do I use, Alcohol. Denatured, Isopropyl or???

FE Technical Forum / Aftermarket rockers
« on: January 21, 2013, 01:34:15 AM »
I am currently building 2 390's. One is mine with edelbrock heads and T&D Rockers. The roller tip on the T&D's lands right in the middle of the valve tip.  The other 390 has C8AE-H heads and Harland Sharpe roller tip rockers and they don't line up in the middle of the valve tip.  Are there any way to fix this??  Thanks Clifford

I repaired a timing cover once with JB Weld and some came off with the heat. Just a thought. Red loctite. high temp silicone just some ideas.  Clifford :)

Well I just sent my pistons to the machine shop to be turned down and I am aiming for .040 quench. Then I will be checking for piston to valve clearance.  More fun.  Clifford

Why not try a brass freeze plug and lightly stake it in.  Clifford

That would definitely be a go getter.  Is it a 4x4?? Clifford

Your truck reminds me of my 68 F100.  But I traded it for my 69 XR7 GT-390 Cougar Convertable. Nice truck.  Clifford
