Thanks for all your helpful hints and tips, I needed a little room for my intake was touching the hood bracing
This is definitely helpful my original plan was to swap heads and intake to the 351 and i run the same box r you run
I've got a 351w under my stock 86 gt hood with super charger, efi carb style intake, and 4 barrel throttle body.
Not only am I having oil pan rack clearance issues. I’m also having the tps hood clearance issue and also bbl header and steering shaft clearance issue
418w, YSI, supervic efi =89 notch
Why not go to Electric Power Steering
How much rroom does the solid motor mounts give you over the stock mounts? Also, how tall is your hood and do you think that an Edelbrock RPM air gap intake with a carb clear a 2½" cowl hood or the stock '82 forward facing scoop over the hole on a 4 eye? Thanks for the informative videos!
408 with a super victor, atm carb, offset bushings and a flat dual plenum style air cleaner. Still very close to rubbing with my 2.5" cervini cowl.
Neo, your from Ohio, correct? And, you say, "ull pan" like we do, in the south. Motor ull. I, caught that. Pretty cool!
On my 89 GT I have a 351W with a Down's box style intake with a stock hood on the car; however, all of the central reinforcement has been removed and an opening added beneath an 82' GT hood scoop on the car in which the box style intake sits up inside. Those offset bushing are key to keeping the rack off of the oil pan and are a pain in the butt to accomplish after the fact because of the deeper front sump on the oil pans preventing easy removal. On my car to keep from having to lift the motor, we drove the rack sleeves back through the stock crossmember in order to be able to change out the leaking rack and install the offset bushings.
Debating on keeping the power rack for my 408 swap vs going to a manual rack. Do you miss PS much in your white car?
I like these videos.. Just like school learn something everytime.. Good shit bud..
I need to work this on my Fox. 351W is barely clearing the rack and the rack is leaking. I did manage to get EFI under a stock hood with the 351W swap drop mounts from LMR. Super close to the stock hood bracing.
Any issues with the front of the oil pan hitting the sway bar? Any help would be appreciated!
There's a guy on the Corral that sells cut spacers that are a direct fit for the box r spacer. I purchased a 3/8 spacer from him and it helped hood clearance tremendously
I got my 351w under stock hood with vert mounts, factory dual snorkel air cleaner and a SpeedMaster dual plane intake. I cut the bracing from the center of the stock steel hood and put washers between the hood and the hinges. I also cut down the wing nut. The lid of the dual snorkel rests on the bottom of the hood, but it closes.
great video, 93 coupe soon getting a 410w. Thanks for all the content you give…Dan your the man
