Looking for a 390 or 428 air cleaner assembly for my 69 Mustang. I have a snorkel already so I really only need the base and lid but I'd take a complete assy if necessary.

FE Technical Forum / Re: Roller rockers for street that fit PBF covers.
« on: August 31, 2017, 12:05:51 PM »
Hi All,

I've been searching around but get different stories...I did a forum serach here too but couldn't get the answers I was looking for.
I want a set of decent quality roller rockers for street use, (COMP HYD roller cam, XR270 grind, CJ valves) for my 390 Mustang GT. (soon to be stroked to 431).

My OEM rockers need new shafts plus end stands so hardly worth the $$ to fix them up.
I've looked at Shelby's, HS, Dove, and POP. HS is the cheapest from Summit ($800), then POP & Dover at around $880, on upwards from there.
When I email the makers only some have replied.

So whats the story? What will fit under my OEM PBF chromed valve covers?
I don't mind a little fettling of the baffles but not major surgery.
I was all set to buy HS as they look well made and are the cheapest decent brand, until someone said they foul the covers.
Then I thought POP as I've dealt with Doug before for pumps etc. Plus I like that he provides a set with the slightly offset rockers to help centre the rollers. Nice. I also read elsewhere that his don't foul the PBF covers.

Another guy said none of the "street" rollers foul  the PBF covers, just their stud mount kits hit the baffles, OEM bolts are no problem.

So what's the truth?

Any recommendations, based on experience please...



Did you ever find a set of roller rockers that work with the Power By Ford valve covers? I'm looking to do the same thing myself.

I looked him up and his shop is in north Florida now. Certainly within my driving range. I'll keep him in mind. Thank for the info.

I live in Panama City, FL and I'm looking for a machine shop experienced with FE's. Does anyone know of a shop in the Panhandle or even the north Florida area? Basically anything from Pensacola over to Jacksonville.

FE Technical Forum / Re: 1969 Ford Mustang FE 390 S Advice & Help

- My suggestion for an easy, lightweight FE with 500 ft-lbs of torque, 450 HP, and under 500 pounds complete:  Stock 390 block with 4.25" stroker kit, Edelbrock heads, an aluminum Edelbrock water pump, an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, Holley 750 double pumper carb, Comp 282S solid cam or an equivalent hydraulic, and a decent set of headers (FPAs work well in FE Mustangs).  I did a similar build for $6000, featured in Car Craft several years ago; here's a link:

Good luck on the project!



I have a 69 Mach 1 390 and that is almost exactly what I want my engine build to be. But I will be installing a Shaker so instead of the RPM intake I'll use either an iron CJ, aluminum PI, or a Holley Street Dominator. I'll need a little more advice on that once I get to that stage.
