Aw Man

is there supposed to be a hole in the block behind the distibuter hole underneath where the the intake manifold covers. I got this 302 HO and I think I know why I got it for so cheap. the whole looks like someone punched it out with a screwdriver or punch from behind the timing change cover near the top of the distributer shaft. but I was told that it was normal. Im thinking I got taken. but who knows maybe I can get 50 bucks for the crank rods pistons and cam shaft.

There's a forum down at the bottom of the forum main page just about picture posting issues.

User Gallery & Picture Display Help - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums

Or you could do like I do and put it on a photo sharing site and post a link to it.

I hope this helps, and good luck with your 302.

Welcome to FTE!

try this... go to ImageShack® - Image Hosting

click the grey box that says "browse"

select the picture (must be on your computer)

resize it to 640x480 and select to remove size/resolution

click host it. It will give you a new page, copy the address it gives you for forums (there will be more than one, the top one is fine) and just paste it in a reply here..
