Mild engine build for my daily driver
This engine started out as a plan just a basic rebuild. Well it’s been 2 years and it has gone far from a stock rebuild. Right not as it sits
Block: 86 roller, squared and zeroed with ARP studs
Rotating Assembly : Probe rotating assembly with forged flat tops fly cut for valve clearance, light weight I-beam rods and cast crank.
Heads: I decided not to use the E7’s and use a set of RPM’s I had lying around. The heads have been completely redone with .010” milled, O-ring grooved, ARP 7/16” studs, Farrea 6000 valves 2.05/1.60, Comp Cams Viton valve seals, CI Springs, CI 10* retainers, and –CI .050” locks from Camshaft Innovations (spec’d to work with the cam). Set up 2.00” spring I/H to work with the longer valves and spring pressure
Head gasket: Fel-Pro 1006 at .040” quench
Cam: (I am ashamed to say it, but I had it lying around) is a B303
Lifter: Comp Cams 851-16
Pushrods: Comp Cams Hi-Tech Chromemoly 6.450”
Rockers: Comp Cams Pro Magnum rollers 7/16”
Valve covers: Anderson cast aluminum with modified oil baffle for rocker clearance
Timing set: Keith Kraft billet double roller with dual torrington bearings and a billet retainer plate
Oil pump: Standard Ford Racing with Probe billet shaft
Oil pan: Canton dual sump and pickup
Balancer: Professional Products 50oz.
Flywheel: PRW billet 50oz.
Intake: GT-40 tubular clearance for 75mm TB
Throttle body: Accufab 75mm and EGR delete
Fuel rails: stock
Injectors: FRP 24 pound
Regulator: Aeromotive adjustable
Distributor: TBD
Wires: MSD 8.5 Super Conductor
Plugs: Autolite 3924
The car it is going into is an 89 coupe with a T-5, Ram HD clutch, 3.55 gears.
