Now he's a grand master mechanic 🙌
I'm going the other way. I rebuilt a 347 that was in my drag car. I currently have it in my street car with 410s. Car runs 10.80s on the stick. I'm looking to put 355s in because of rpm, noise and fuel consumption. I want to cruise past more gas stations lol. I have some videos of my mustangson my page. Great refresher video. Thanks
What’s the point of the fuse and where does it go in the wiring? How often will it blow? I’m worried the initial surge of amps when the fan comes on will keep blowing it.
Use a fuse that can handle the continuous draw of the fan. It can be anywhere in a relatively short power circuit like this but ideally it will be fairly close to the battery or power lug. The fuse won’t normally blow as a result of the startup amperage.
@tecmotion may i ask you how long the buttonhead screws you used are for safe Window operation. Thickness SAE 1/4" or M6mm? Thank you and cheers
I used 1/4-20 x 3/4” long button heads.
@@tecmotiondyno thanks a lot for your support... Cheers
How great that when you were showing us what you did to ground the system in the trunk you weren't pointing the camera at what you did. So I have no idea what happened.
Try the 6:30 mark where the grounding of the system is clearly shown and explained.
Hey Matt how do you like that lift king. It looks short enough to fit in my garage
@@stevenking6442 yeah, that’s what it is really for - home garages. It’s a long story how I ended up with it in my shop, but it has given good service and works well with light units like cars. Someone else had asked me about it so I filmed a little video on it: Low Profile Portable Two Post Automotive Lift Features and Review czcams.com/video/7jPyQMASt58/video.html
Great performance coupe. Would love to see a Mercury Cougar XR7 with a hot 5.0L setup...Cougar has that extra pimp appeal.
I always liked the cougar myself too.
Nice job!
The car turned out really nice in the end!
Really great video. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I'mmmmmm gonna take a guess and sayyyy... HEADACHE! Unless you're the Smithsonian or Jay Leno, don't bother. This era of auto-manufacturing was a mess, especially for domestics; it was all off-the-shelf innovation with a HUGE helping of marketing which resulted in owning something which was nothing like that glossy ad in the National Geographic. Most parts for these cars are god-awful rare, mainly because for nearly 20 years as metal-prices went up the scrap was worth more than the car, even if it was in decent condition. It's actually easier to find parts and machining for vehicles mid-60s and older, basically because many of those cars didn't start to dry-rot as soon as you drove them of the lot, and they weren't a cobbled-together piece of modernity. But hey, passion and common-sense are seldom bosum buddies; I work on old Atari 5200s and fix them up... more 80s crap. So, I dig it.
Subscribed! Can’t wait to dyno my 331 vortech build. Hoping for 500whp once it cools off here in AZ.
Hi @tecmotiondyno. I plan on dropping the transmission, so I will only be lifting the engine with the bell housing attached. At what points do you have the load leveler attached to the engine?
You can attach it the same way I did here. If you don't want to pull the upper intake and you still have the factory lift points, you can use those, but the engine will twist as you adjust the load leveler. An example of installing an engine/transmission assembly with the factory lift points is here: czcams.com/video/Y8w5WoQsM8c/video.htmlsi=-VmhOvYcDsHPPwq5
@@tecmotiondyno Okay. She is stocked from the factory, so I will use the factory lift points. Are those stock headers on your engine? If so, I should be able to deinstall and install my engine like you did, right? Maybe a little easier since only the bell housing will be attached?
@@Mustang8846 yeah, I think both these videos depict stock header cars. You won’t have to remove the stock headers to get it in or out, but if you switch to aftermarket headers you will start to get into special procedures around the headers.
@@tecmotiondyno This is great news! She is stocked and will remain stocked. I will only make mods that are absolutely necessary. So far that is the R12 to R134a conversion and the Alternator upgrade.
Just used mine: picked up McD’s
I use this car as my summer daily. This business of hauling a laser printer down to the shop for an emergency Saturday replacement is a little tongue in cheek, but it takes the sting out of having to spend my Saturday on a shop maintenance exercise because at least I got a nice Corvette ride. If you ask me, the real crime with these cars is having one and NOT driving it.
Thank you sir!! What do you think on using urethane to restore the windows? When that hardens it can be sanded right? Thoughts? Thank You!!
You really should use a flexible skim coat like the Fusor 114. Other types of products may crack or delaminate. I am sure there are competitors to the Fusor product, but what you are looking for is a skim coat designed for flexible plastic surfaces like bumper covers. Having said this, I am not a journeyman body man, but I consulted one in conjunction with this repair and it did turn out well.
@@tecmotiondyno Thank You!🙏
Thank you!!!! I’m going to do this! I overheated in the parade today with my 1967 colony park with 390
The fan I put in this project made a big difference.
Hey great video! But I’m having trouble getting the harmonic balancer back on. If I try to put the crank bolt back in and tighten it it doesn’t push in the balancer. Am I missing something?
I hope you didn’t strip the crank threads. You should use a longer bolt to get decent engagement on the crank threads like I did or better yet a balancer installer if you could find one that works with the 5.0 setup. If you have an automatic you should still be able to get it started but at some point you will just start turning the whole crankshaft so you may have to brace it with something. If I recall when I did this automatic I used a steel bar between a flat spot on the edge of the balancer and the shop floor with a microfiber in between to avoid marring the balancer.
What's the data log equipment used besides the laptop buddy... I need to have it for certain sanerios
I use a Moates Quarterhorse. Unfortunately they are out of business, but you may still be able to find a used one.
The real crime is he still uses HP laser jet
Can someone please do a video on the air conditioning airbox assembly, blower motor, or the Climate control box for the 89 Lincoln mark VII
Chewing gum hahahahahahaha first I’ve heard that lol.
Great point on covering spark plugs!!!
The only thing that makes no sense if you put it at tdc and slightly move the crank exhaust valve does not move. So you should not say take it to tdc you turn till the crank till the exhaust valve just coming up.
I would say its a refreshed survivor that has been painted. Very nice car.
There is a "Drop-In" Refrigerant available for the old R12 Air Condition Systems. It's R413A. No need to convert the whole System to R134a. Cheers
I need an engine, clutch And exhaust installed all the way in Ontario Canada, Can't find anyone...
I’m not a mechanic so your video with a thorough explanation of everything is so helpful. Great job. Thanks
Any updated how that spal fan results review hottest to lowest with spal fan .
Mr. I honor your tips skillful do and dont one time install . Or to prevent breakdowns or spending on new core rad. Nice job mustang fantastic.
Great video! Thank you!
Average corvette driver:
It's been 5 yrs and 80,000 mi since i drilled mine. No regrets. It had 100k on it, and it blew out a 8 to 12 oz of cream, and hasnt left a dtop on my driveway since.
Yeah, this one has been doing fine since the weep hole was drilled as well.
Very informative video! I want one! Thanks for sharing.
you breath in a way you have a heart attack. sell corvete buy bycicle - it will help ypu more bro
Thanks for your health concerns.
It's a nice car but it is ridiculous that you use this beautiful car for carrying loading, in that case get a cybercrap for that was made😅😂😅😂
Nice parking bud.
In front of my own shop, I can take ALL the spaces if I want.
Fair enough. You can do what you like with your own property. If it was my property I would probably park sideways. Please be considerate in other parking lots.
@@tecmotiondynodoesn’t change the fact that you can’t park worth a shit lmao
@@brandonbelcher9550 I always park like a jackass in front of my own shop to defend the cars from visitors to my neighbors who aren’t that careful with their trucks. In a public lot, I try to stay at the back out of everyone’s way and between the lines.
Breathing a little heavy there champ. I’m concerned for your health. Nice car though.
More regular exercise and better diet plan. Avoid all heart disease and diabetics.
Yeah try that on something that's been outside and been in all weather elements haha pull that bitch hard af to get it off
nice Mark VII. Have a '90 myself.
Great Video Ted!! Thanks from Tacoma WA!
Thanks for watching!
Check bottom of the doors
That’s a fair comment.
Big fan of the channel really curious on this engine combo currently building a sn95 stick car and looking to do some kind of na combo any more info on the engine combo
If you go to Tecmotion.ca and look under shop cars, all the details on this build are there.
Critique. No need to use RTV on gaskets at the ports, the gasket seals the 2 surfaces. Better deal is to smear a light coat of grease or Vaseline on the gaskets, this will ensure the gaskets will not stick to the surface when manifold is removed. Good advice on the studs for the ends of the manifold, Ford used them for many years, a light coating of anti seize on them will inhibit corrosion. Nothing worse than unbolting a SBF intake & snapping the studs/bolts in the head! Good idea to re-torque the manifold bolts after a few heat cycles. Your water pump housing gasket needed a trim job, looks shabby with the gasket out in the open.
I would definitely not use and did not use RTV on the gasket surfaces. I used Permatex High Tack which is a specialized adhesive used to hold the gasket in place and promote sealing on the side of the gasket without a print-o-seal surface. This is essentially the same product as gasgacinch which is what Ford recommends for this job. Applying an oil or grease product to the gasket can damage its integrity and is not a good idea. As for retorquing the manifold bolts, that isn’t possible with an EFI manifold unless you remove the upper and I have never seen it be necessary if you follow the procedure that I outline here.
Well explain video thank you so much god bless and always stay humble 🤙🏼
Thanks for watching
Hey, I just want to express my thank you for a very comprehensive detailed video that you demonstrated/achieved. Wow what a big job that requires a great deal of tools, and skill to say the least. This video is perhaps one of the very best for the potential do it yourselfer's understanding. Thanks again for an EXCELLENT video.
Thank you. I tried to make a comprehensive video and it ended up being so long that I thought no one would watch it.
Awesome car! I’m at the limits of my block with vortech AFR heads 331 stroker. Trying to keep it at 500whp or less so it lives for a bit 😊
It’s easy to push the production block too hard. I often have to try to hold cars like that back in the tuning to promote longevity.
@@tecmotiondynoyeah I’m about 11.3-11.1 AFR and total timing at 10 psi is 15-16 degree
You should test the only before putting them in the engine for an initial reading?
If you are asking if you should sample the clean oil, the answer is no. The labs have already done that so if you tell them the brand and weight of oil you are sending in, they will compare it against their database baselines.
I just installed a pair of H4 type LED Headlights in my 1991 Lincoln Mark Vll & now, when I turn on my Headlights the “Lamp Out” Warning light on the upper console illuminates. Can you tell me why this happens please?
Not enough draw for the factory system to see a working bulb. Traditional halogen draw much more than leds.
I lived 80s car culture! Gapping 305 and 5.7 TPI IROC-Zs with my (still own it!) '85 GT 5.0!! But my college roommate's 86 Buick GN would walk me after I'd hit 3rd gear...😠
Hopefully we'll see on the stream tonight!
