Title: MyHO conversion has begun lol
Post by: capitlj on January 11, 2007, 12:17:22 AM
Me too I'm driving out friday night to pick up the heads.  I'll get the cam from my buddy with the stang b/c his wife got him the E303 for christmas, planning on buying some cheap heddman headers a mustang H-pipe.  I still need to get the injectors, computer, and i'm looking for a HO intake/throttle body combo but it will be nice to get down to it this spring.  Anybody got any tips or things to watch out for.  If i have the cash I'm hoping to get a new rear-end too.

Just be patient,plan ahead,make sure you have everything you need before you start.E-bay has intakes all the time for cheap.Injectors aren't hard to find either.Grab a set off of a fuel injected Ford pickup (5.0 and 5.8) if you have a boneyard cheap,or,Corral or E-bay.Lot's of options as to where you get your parts.Keep us posted along the way.I'm starting the same upgrade this Spring on my project car.

Went down to the cities friday and picked up the heads $50.  Asked the guy bout injuectors and he said he has a friend thats willing to sell them to me for $50 or if i buy his AOD with a shift kit in it for $250 he'll give me the injectors.  Oh and I got another 302 block for free.  The snowball has started downhill theres no stopping it now.
