Wouldn't happen to have a 4bbl intake would you?

Cool, maybe they will have another one soon.

BA Mustang

I think they had 2 or 3 last year, so they will have some more. Also during the RCMC May show there is usually a little vendor area.

No, just the 2 barrel cast iron one......

Ok, lets see if I can name off everything I've gotten for the swap.

frame mounts
motor mounts
radiator hoses
shorty headers
block
heads
pistons
crank
cam
cam bearings
water pump
oil pump
oil pump driveshaft
valve covers
carb
timing cover/water pump bolts
distributor hold down plate
cylinder head bolts
lifters
push rods
harmonic balancer

still need to buy distributor, oil pump screen, intake manifold, fuel pump, pulleys, bellhousing, clutch, freeze plugs, and gasket kit.

...main bearings
rod bearings
rings
permatex sealer
rod bolts
rod bolt covers
torque wrench
oil
Fl-1A filter...

Dont' need anything for the pistons or rods, already have a torque wrench here, already have sealer here, forgot to order the rings last night, and will order bearings once the block comes back from the shop.

Also forgot to put rocker arms on the list of already bought.

i see you need an engine gasket set and your alternator bracket/ pulleys
is the I6 and v8 fly wheel the same?

what year is your block as some are 28 oz and some are 52 oz imbalance.

i also didnt see oil pan listed,

what heads re you using?

and make sure your disty gear matched up with the cam gear, brass vs steel.

BA Mustang

I've got to buy the water pump and crank pulleys for the engine. Also going to try and get the accessory brackets from the guy I got my parts from.

I have an oil pan, forgot to put that on.

I don't believe the I6 and V8 flywheels are the same.

I'm using E7 block and heads, and it should be a 50oz. I've got a 50oz balancer and I read that I would need a 50oz flywheel too.

I do know the alternator and starter are the same for V8 and I6. One thing I don't know is what tooth flywheel to buy.

Rogue

you just need to match up the flywheel teeth and the starter, i dont know alot more than that on that subject

BA Mustang

Can now add distributor to the bought list. Bought an hei distributor

BA Mustang

Engine has been pulled out and sent to its new owner

BA Mustang

Picked up the engine and crank today. Also ordered the re-ring kit for it. Getting closer to finishing it up, but still a few weeks away at least unfortunately.

BA Mustang

The 302 is in and bolted down. Working on getting all the parts on correctly. Have to buy new headers to make exhaust work with the z-bar.

BA Mustang

And it runs! .

Congrats!

Well its back in the garage with the manifold off. Intake gaskets leaked and got water in the oil, maybe cylinders too.
