Jake, what parts are you looking for specifically? Wonder where Randy's been hiding??

jseim44 12-04-2009 05:07 PM

I'd like a set of heads to butcher (port). Preferably an early set (C1's or C4's....etc). Also.....maybe just whatever I can find and stock pile for future use.

Sorry guys, my dad passed away so been busy w/family, don't think i got any heads left, i'll do some looking when i get a chance

jseim44 12-05-2009 08:49 PM

Sorry to hear that Randy. That has to be tough on the family. I just lost my Grandmother here about a month ago and it certainly wasn't easy.

Randy, I'm sorry to hear about your dad, bud, that's a tough loss.

fordnut forever 12-06-2009 06:02 PM

I have a few FE parts laying around depending on what you are looking for. I'm not going to 'give' anything away, as I have new projects pop up all the time, and I know how much it cost to buy FE stuff new and find good used stuff!!

Performer RPM Intake

67 390 car heads (not sure on the casting #'s, as I haven't seen these heads in years, they're stored at the machine shop where the engine was originally built.) Ported/polished, been gone through/checked out, springs good to .600 lift + (the cam I ran was .601 lift). I believe valve size is still stock

FE Distributor (converted to run MSD)

Cobra LeMans Valve Covers

New rocker arm shafts/Clevite adjustable rocker arms. I also have a couple different length of pushrods for a hydraulic or solid cam (I don't think I have all 16 in either lenght though??

Lakewood BlowProof Bellhousing (May be trading this off for a 429)

428 flywheel

Custom made upright truck pulling headers (the only ones around)

I ran all of these parts in my pulling truck when I first started pulling. The engine was a 416 stroker that I turned pretty consistently around 7K rpm's. After 5 years of pulling, it decided it didn't like that anymore:-X13

Misc small pieces. Also, have several stock FE's still in old Ford trucks

Let me know if you are interested in anything, and I can send you a price.

jseim44 12-12-2009 08:19 PM

PM me a price on the heads please. If you can get the casting numbers that'd be great too.

-Jake

The Freak 12-14-2009 08:56 AM

Will do!! I'll have to get a hold of the machine shop and see if they can dig them out for me.

gquinn8516 12-14-2009 08:48 PM

Jake - Wish you would have said something - I have a set of 428 heads you are welcome to have. I don't think they are worth anything because they are off the irrigation engine I purchased. I am going to buy a set of Cobra Jet Aluminum heads for my 410. I will get the casting on them and send you a message. Your welcome to them if you want them.

jseim44 12-14-2009 09:42 PM

Dang! It's not like I didn't have room for them either. I ordered Steve Christ's book....which is, apparently, the FE bible so I will know what's good and what's not as good. I need to see what heads the 71 has on it.....I'm sure they're probably C8AEs like the 69 but I might get lucky.

Randy,
How much of a mess is your yard? I need to get my stuff together and make you a list of what I need. I also have some old tires and wheels that would be nice to get rid of.
