a little raffle motor help?

[FWilliams]

i need help in locating some parts for the raffle motor

i need a set of SBF heads, 60 cc chamber, ready to go would be nice, we have gone theu 3 sets of rebuilders ,only to have them all be cracked

distributor, somebody contacted me earlier about a dual point accel, but never got back to me.i am still interested


intake and carb, i may have a lead on this stuff but throwin it up here just in case it doesnt pan out.

not looking for freebies , will pay for all parts, maybe even a finders fee at this point

Ryan has an ad on the classifieds looking for heads,he has been offering to pay for this engine from the beginning, thats going to defeat the whole purpose of doing it. i do not want to see him paying for parts for this thing!

if we can't locate the needed parts in the next couple of weeks .i am going to build another SBC, i have the parts and resources available to do one similar to last years.

thanks to all.

what Assdragger said..

I do have a Malory dist for a late model Olds if someone wanted to trade for a Ford style..

What do you need in the line of a carb.
I got some old Holleys if that'll do.

[DIRTYT]

i got a mallory sbf dizzy at my shop.... o shiti just rememberd theres a old ford motor stuffed the closet at work too.. ill have to source what it is but u can have the heads on it if its what you need. o and the dizzy is all yours too. any thing to help the HAMB out!

[zonkola]

What kind of intake are you looking for?

As for the heads, have you tried the local Ford truck boneyards? The Ford Explorers with 5.0s have GT40-esque heads...

[porknbeaner]

Hell I completely missed that it was a ford you were building. I got a SBF just sitting in the yard. Its an older 2V supposed to be a 302. You can have anyrhing you want off it. It was a running engine when it came home and its been wrapped so I'm pretty sure the heads are good.
Tell what head numbers to look for and I'll go give it a peak.
I don't know a whole helluva lot about small block Ford pieces.

[zonkola]

Oh no you don't. There's no way this post is gonna slip to page three and ruin my chances at winning a Racefab-built Ford raffle engine!

Back to the mother funkin' tire-smoking top, baby!

Really? Will they bolt up to a mid 70s 302? Will it require any machine work or piston changes? How much more hp would we be talking here??

[Boones]

I would help out if I had an Ford parts... You taking collections to help pay for the parts you need?

[zonkola]

Django - The later model Ford Explorers and other trucks came with cast iron GT40 heads and GT40P heads, some of which are regarded as highly by the Mustang guys as the Mustang Cobra heads. Here's a jumping off point to learn more: http://www.themustang-net.com/tech_articles/gt40p.shtml

As for interchange, the small block heads pretty much all interchange. The 351W heads (and most aftermarket aluminum heads) do have larger bolt holes that require special bolt sleeves to bolt these heads onto a 289/302/5.0 block. Other than that and keeping an eye on head CCs to make sure you don't raise or lower your compression too much, they all interchange. (351C heads will also work with the 289/302/351W engines, but not without modification.)

Racefab, I'm going to go look through my stash of ford parts, and I'll PM you with what I have.

'FAB, sent you a PM.

(Actually, this is just a lame excuse to send this puppy back to the top. Can you tell I'm into the idea of a SBF raffle engine?)

[El Caballo]

I am going to win, because I am going to buy all of the tickets...

zonk, that engine will look so sweet betwixt the rails of my real Henry '27. I appreciate you donating your money to the cause, http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[Flat Ernie]

Just FYI - the GT-40P heads were designed specifically for the Explorer & the exhaust ports are slightly higher on the head (slightly different port shape too, but that can be easily remedied with a die grinder http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif) This causes some problems when putting them in earlier cars (specifically) as the entire header is raised up enough to cause interference problems...

Having said all of that - they're one of the best stock SBF heads out there & they're reasonbly priced.

[slacker]
