Well months back, I lost my log in info and never bothered going through the process of retrieving it...I figured now would be a good time though.
Over the past couple months I have been swapping in a 390 from a '68 Mustang into my '65 F100. Finally got everything together today, took it for a test drive, and blew chunks through the oil pan. Looks like I'm doing another complete tear down.
Maybe this is my way of saying I have yet another project, and involving the FTE community will make it seem more of an adventure and less of a painful tear down for an engine with 2 miles on the clock by me.
I will be posting another thread regarding an oil burning issue I was trying to diagnose with the engine when it blew shortly. Any feedback to that would be much appreciated.
Dang sorry to hear that but like you said, it's another project. I'm about to fire my built 302 up for the first time this coming weekend.... hope I have better luck than you did. LOL.
