FE Technical Forum / Re: How many billable hours to change cam and heads?
« Last post by FrozenMerc on September 03, 2025, 12:18:58 PM »
I would only take on that job as a "Time and Materials" deal.  Rough estimate would be around 20 hrs, but lots of unknowns as others have previously pointed to. Hell, I would probably have an hour or 2 into just removing / reinstalling the master cylinder and bleeding the brakes as it doesn't look like a head (or the motor) is getting pulled with that in there.  So, if I get it done in 16, you get a cheaper bill, if it takes 24 hours, not as much.

The motor is definitely coming out.  I have done head gaskets in chassis on a few Dentside trucks, and yuck.

I don't expect to compete for any class records.  I just want to make some quick and fast passes.  I would be very happy to get into the 8s.  I think the mid nines might come but a lot depends on how quick I learn about setting up a coil over suspension.

will you be making the rear main cap as well?  I picked up a used block that is missing the rear main cap as well as a couple of the other main bearing caps

FE Technical Forum / 1966 390 Cyclone dipstick

Evidently the 1966 390  had a significantly longer dipstick and tube. I do not know why (PS pump perhaps). Does any one have a source for these parts? Thanks, Chuck

Ross, If you start making them let me know. I've been calling him every few days leaving a message and phone number. No answers.
Thanks, Chuck (S)

Although the man's advice and wisdom is beneficial . . . . . .

      Perhaps presented a tad excessive on the hyperbole in attempting to make points, that maybe haven't been established yet.   

      But of course, the greater the concerns the better the business (unless you manage to scare the customer off!); but then, it is a "promotional" video subject, right?   :)

I would never use an Eagle crank on an FE. 


      +1   ;D   Particularly those "cast steel" examples!   :o
