Seeking information please
I just purchased a Backdraft roller (before the price increase:D ) and will be installing the engine and tranny myself (with a little help). Has anyone done the same? I've seen a lot of posts where people had the dealer do the install.
I'm looking for some insight that may avoid any pitfalls. I have a 1972 Ford 302 block that I bored .030" over and I am doing a carb set up of the Edelbrock Performer RPM build. I am mating that to a T-5 HD. Do motor mounts come with the roller? If not, what brand/style are right for a Backdraft? Is the rear Tranny mount on the roller or do I need to get one? Has anyone added a driveshaft safety loop to their Backdraft? I think you can see where I'm going here. Even though the roller is advertised to only need engine and tranny; What do I really need? Any help with the "unknown" would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. |
Good Morning.
The 03' cars include: Motor mounts Tranny cross member Gauge Sensors Radiator Hoses/Lines Headers Sidepipes Shifter Ring You will need the following: Mustang tranny mount Lokar trottle cable Electric Fuel pump Fuel line/regulator Shifter Handle Shifter Knob Emblem for center of Steering wheel The 04' cars include these, but you'll need them: Driveshaft Clutch Slave Driveshaft Hoops I think this covers it, hope it helps. Let me know if you have any questions. BTW: Congradulations. Let the fun begin... Boudy |
Boudy,
I have BDR #123 on order. Yep, I'm smiling. Reg and Frank had told me the driveshaft and the clutch slave cyl. came with the car. If I am wrong please let me know. I also plan to do the engine drop. Oops , bad choise of words. I plan to do the engine/trans install my self. The engine is in the barn awaiting the body. Thanks, David :3DSMILE: :3DSMILE: :3DSMILE: |
Yes, I was there this weekend and some of the 04 options are being added to alot of the cars purchased before the increase and are just not yet delivered.
