Hi Sully and welcome to FTE.

Do you see that word EDIT beside the word reply where you post.
That is for Editing a post that you have just submitted. You have an HOUR to edit it,(to change things around or add things to it).
Cool feature, Huh?

Okay, We have a re-building forum that would probably have the info you're looking for because these guys do the re-building all the time.

(From Sully's other post)

"sorry, 78 f150 400 w/c6 tranny. the tranny is fine, the engine is giving me headaches!"

Hi Sully, just trying to put this thread all together. If you're too late to catch the one-hour Edit, go right on and reply to your own post. That way it's all in one place.

Hey I did the same thing in the Moderator forum yesterday.

Take care!

Barry

Sully...I say Sully boy...In 1984 I spent $1200 in a proper overhaul of my 302...This engine is still strong today on this rebuild. Including a rebore and Speed Pro plasma moly rings. Except nothing else on the rings. There are others, but they use a cheaper process to coat the rings. This was a first class rebuild. All new hoses, belts, water pump, fuel pump in addition to all the usual...hope this helps. Betsy's heart is still extremely strong.

Hope this helps.
