351-W Parts Wanted
Anybody local got any 351 Windsor parts for a good price? I started my truck yesterday and something went 'Boing!' in the engine. Antifreeze blowing out the passenger exhaust pipe, and the radiator drained quickly into the crankcase. I'm thinkin' there's something seriously broke in there!
Right now I'm looking at options, like whether I just get a 351 junkyard core and do a straight rebuild with a mild cam and a 4 barrel, or maybe someone else upgraded and has a decent motor (or parts) for sale at a good price. The current engine is just a plain 351 2 barrel, and I'd like to end up with just a bit more 'go'. Not a hot rod, just a bit more oomph.
