My motor swap

[red85]

looks like maybe an old C3

 

[baddad457]

well if i wanna add my ps later how would i add it?

You've got me, I thought you had all that figured out (based on the parts you bought)

 

[Mac]

I think the trans you have is the C-4. It should have 11 bolts on the trans pan, the C3 has 13. The C-5 didn't come out until '82'. As far as adding PS later, plan now, probably going to change a few pulleys. I'll dig up some old pulley arrangements and show all the different options, might end up with a three groove crank pulley depending on what all you want to run.

I was not really paying attention to the pictures you showed. I thought that was the other trans you were talking about, not the one you pulled. Been into the suds too much today!

[COPPERHEAD85]

murder is whats going to happen to your underwear when you get it out on the road with the 302.......
when i first cranked mine up you couldn't have wiped the smile off my face with a boat paddle.i wish i could have driven mine more with the tunnel ram setup,ran it around the pasture for about an hour to break in the cam and set the rings.went thru about 6 gallons of high test.did 2 drop the hammer at 20 mph in high 4x4 and almost s@#t myself.i still think my hand prints are on the steering wheel.

man i hope so! im hoping itll suprise me a good bit! lol

can i run 3 pulleys on a v-belt?

 

[v-8power]

If you are running alt, fan (water pump), you should be good with one belt.
If you are going to run ps you should run a second belt.

You do not need a separate belt for each accessory

yea i know.

but one belt for alt, WP, crank. and then one for PS and crank? would this work?

and will 87 stang vert mounts do fine?
