FE Technical Forum / One piece rear main seal
« on: October 08, 2019, 07:46:12 AM »
    The July issue of Camaro Craft, sorry, Car Craft Magazine has a 427 FE build. In the article they show a one piece rear main seal from Roush. Has anyone had experience With this part? And how do they get it over the crank flange?

   Thanks guys for the info. I do have one of those fuel pumps with the vac. booster, also have a vac. canister for power brakes that I could plumb in. Had no idea Ford changed the wiper timing from parallel to opposed. Seems almost nothing fits a '60 other than another '60 part.

    Will a later model ('63-'64) Galaxie electric wiper motor physically fit a '60 Galaxie given the correct switch? I don't think my old vacuum motor will work well with a cammed up engine. Comp. 282s 433 cu. in. single plane.

FE Technical Forum / Casting lump in intake port
« on: August 13, 2019, 12:20:07 PM »
   I am preparing a set of C4AE 3090H heads for street use. My question has to do with the protrusion in the intake port for the rocker oiling position rocker stud. How much of this can be carved away. Should I try to just streamline this or can it be eliminated without losing too much of the thread for the rocker stud? Suggestions would be appreciated.
Mike.

FE Technical Forum / parallel main oil galley
« on: July 25, 2019, 02:25:25 PM »
  Has anyone ever herd of running a parallel main oil galley in a center oilier fe in the lifter chamber by drilling & pipe taping at each end? Maybe 3/8 steel tubing. Might help those #4&8 rod bearings live a little longer? Stop laughing!

     Would you use Ford shim head gaskets if you could find some? I may have a source for you.

Got an email back from Borgeson about steering box clearance.
They tell me that their power steering conversion box will NOT CLEAR CAST HEADERS.

    Will the Borgson power steering box clear shorty cast headers in a 1960 Galaxie? 427 with factory heads. Photos that I have seen make the clearance appear close.

FE Technical Forum / Center oiler block bypass question.
« on: April 30, 2019, 05:06:24 PM »
   I am building a 427 for my 60 starliner. the block has no oil bypass hardware and the thread for the plug appears to be 5/8-18. Did Ford use a dedicated plug for this? Does it seal with a copper washer?Help!
