:rollin:Looks like a got a new job that pays pretty well. Because of this, I will be putting in my new "battery" in my '88 Sport T-Bird "THOR".
Quick story: I got hit on my motorcycle by a drunk driver that ran a red light. I represented myself, won the case and a settlement. Then I bought this new "battery"! ( knees still hurt, but as long as my gas pedal foot is alright ) :D
You got it! Ford "392" Crate motor!!!!
Sorry to hear about your accident! Trust me I know exactly how you feel because im in the same boat right now. Glad to see you got what you wanted!
Oh man, that is pretty!! If I got something like that, I would have a hard time installing it. I'd want to put it in my living room and just stare at it all day long. Congrats!!
Sorry about the accident, looks like your Bird is going to rock!!
Wow that's wearing a bunch of the old Motorsport stuff, is that a NOS motor or something?
Yes! I bought this crate engine brand new from Ford after I won my settlement around '07 - '08, but had not installed it yet! I'm looking at the Tremec T56 for the tranny.
do you have to drill for the breather caps? I guess I am not seeing where they are supposed to go.
Yes you have to drill. btw...I found out through thorough research, I can buy a set of AFR 185cc heads and mill them from 58cc to 54cc and gain an instant 75HP!!! (it's in MM & FF Nov 2000 issue page 180) numbers tested were 537HP @ 5900 rpm ; 505lbs-ft @ 4900 rpm torque.
Is it a 351 based block? If it is I think you would be much happier with a set of trick flows.
It is based off the 351W. I want to get the upper and lower intake from Trickflow.
I hear 392 strokers are screamers. You'll have fun with that for sure.
Roller cam?
It's a hydraulic roller cam by Comp Cams. It's a custom version in its Xtreme Energy series.
