Parts list for teardown

SSteady98 · September 19th, 2011, 11:08 AM

So after taking my 5.0 that I just traded for my old V6 to my dad's house, we figured out a few things about the car.
1). The fuel filter had tape wrapped around the lines with bits and pieces of the clamp inside it. Fuel filter horrible condition.
2). Valve Cover has a missing bolt, and leaking on clutch. Clutch slipping pretty bad, Getting bolt soon.
3). Crank? Who needs a crank. Well, I do. and this one's pretty shot.
4). If you leave the sensors and wires that are used for showing temperature/oil pressure off of the motor, you won't be able to tell what those numbers are.
5). The tear-down shall be victorious and a good one.
Reason for this? I decided to put a load of money into this car to get it going in a right direction. I just ordered:
-5.0 302 Crank, Main Rod bearings included- 190$(Shop in East Texas by the name of MabbCo)
AmericanMuscle.Com
-Mr. Gasket Overhaul kit- 130$
-SPEC Stage 3 Clutch- 315$(I want NO problems)
-BBK Underdrive pulleys- 90$(Since the motor's gonna be pulled anyways)
-Short Throw Shifter-130$
-White AmericanMuscle.com Sticker

I will try to take pics as the teardown pursues next weekend. Any tips on getting this thing out tranny and all a little faster? Much Appreciated.

Too much clutch.... Your going to twist imput shafts... That's the weakest link then

Why are you replacing your crankshaft? You will have to get your rotating assembly rebalanced then. Are you honing the cylinders and replacing the rings also? Oil pump? Timing chain?

The crank is shot. knocking right now, so I went ahead and bought the main and rod bearings with another crank.

I bet replacing your fuel filter will allow you to rev past 5,000 rpms if it was in that poor of condition.

It was absolutely horrible. It had been bogging down 3200-4k rpm. I haven't pushed it pass the 4.6k mark i don't think. I want to fix the crank before I do that.
