SniveTroll Posted April 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 It probably will need a rebuild. It works and strong but the drill has an odor on use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SniveTroll Posted April 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2015 i just ordered from RockAuto a set of front OEM shocks for this bucket. Combined was cheaper than 1 shock from Ford themselves. i think the front end should get some pivot and radius arm bushings soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SniveTroll Posted May 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 I dont know pushrod engines and something lately sounded garbage driving it. I know im changing hub bearings and rotors. I just may throw another 351 in the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SniveTroll Posted May 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 looking at on the interwebz it has a code of 332 EVP/EGR crap. looks like i will be doing new Vac lines sooner than i thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SniveTroll Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Today i went to the yards and found a 95 E-van with a 351. I snatched the whole vacuum harness. A little plastic cleaner will go a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SniveTroll Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 This weekend i drove it around for a day and im impressed with the progress. 2 things struck me. I dont like the stock NOS shocks. They bind noisey a little too much. I also did not like the dumped magnaflow. So.. Makingyour own exhaust is fun.

SniveTroll Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 i dumped the dump today. its mellowed out. im going back to checking some plugs this weekend as well. i'll regap them while i can. i never gapped them when i left new jersey.

SniveTroll Posted May 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 i regapped the plugs to .50 from .44... i noticed plug #4 completely finger loose. the sewing machine quiet down some but im looking into possibly re-freshening the 351. im simply not happy with the way this thing tugs along. also, i need a new EGR. the EGR sensor works. the valve is stuck.

95riosnake Posted May 26, 2015 Report Share Posted May 26, 2015 How much of a freshening are we talking? Top end or full rebuild? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SniveTroll Posted May 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 Full refreshening. Im looking for a roller block, oil pump and gt40 heads. I hope to reuse everything else. No need to spend a buttload. Oh and new egr valve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SniveTroll Posted May 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 i ran across a jasper 351 roller on FB for 700 with 86k. i know thats a deal but i really dont want to spend that much at once for an engine. ill scour the yards next week for a roller block.

95riosnake Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 I'm not sure that 86k is really that fresh either, I'd personally rather have something with 0 miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Psychorugby Posted May 28, 2015 Moderators Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Craigslist... I got my roller block for $150. It came from a 96 Bronco with 50k miles on it; there's still crosshatching in the cylinders. He started at $300, but by the time I got there, he had sold the intake and told me the new price was $150. The heads and other shit got me about $50 back in scrap metal.
