this is my first time rebuilding an engine besides just headgaskets or rear main seal change on my 351M. so i am a true newb with this.
i got a spare motor that used to be in my mustang, its a 5.0 HO, not sure on the year. first question is can i just buy a 4bbl intake and carb to put on this engine, or are the heads or anything else different between efi and carb?
here she be.
lifters.. is there any way to tell if theyre worn or due for replacement?
pistons are a mess, whats the best way to clean them up?
i know these parts for the lifters got up wrote on 1 side of them, but do it matter which lifters they belong to or if a certain end is facing front or back?
and thats about all the time i had tonight. heres a couple more pics of some markings, maybe someone could tell what they mean
