  • i have a 79 ghia, with O/r With flowmasters, Shortys, and stock 302, and i wanna upgrade the heads, whats kinda cheap but is good, and what is complicity with my stock 302

  • @bullzeye128 good and cheap dont go together at all when buying heads. AFR makes a good head which is what is on mine, and Trick flow makes a good head as well. Trick flow also has an entire top end kit for about $2500 last i had checked. It have every single thing you need to do a heads/cam/intake swap.

  • hey did yall do anything to the transmission? cause i have a 1979 5.0 and i want to work on it more i just dont know if the 4 speed can handle that kinda power

  • @Southernpridedixie No, we sold the 4-speed. It has a world class T-5 in it now and it's not a fan of the power.

see all

  • hey man sick foxbody im 14 im fixin my dads 79 hatchback we just put the 302 in it before christmas can u tell me what color the ignition wire is plzz we cnt find it let me kno

  • @FlyinCowboy I work at a Ford dealership now so I put a Motorcraft battery in it for just under $100

  • They were installed as the motor went into the car, so the motor was still on the engine crane and movable, plus at that state it didn't have anything on it. So at that time, no it was not. If you want more info click more info on the video description and check out the build thread, it's long but there are tons of pics.

  • Hey man, I was just wondering if the long tubes were hard to put in, like did you have to pull the engine?

  • The only good thing about a Wally World battery is that they'll warranty the damn thing no matter what... and that's about it! Good work on your car, and who cares about the battery.

  • Looks like a fucking walmart battery lol
