    351 into 84 xe.

    Hi guys, bit of a dig up, have not been active in a very long time... anyway was thinking of dragging the old s pack out of the shed and dumping 351 into it for a bit of fun... Just wondering, originally a efi six, What would be the dramas id have, I know ill need new springs, shocks bushes yatta yatta. and breaks, Fuel line no idea there or pump. maybe a holley blue or something, to paint the picture i have a reasonable 351 thats been sitting forawhile, its 30 thou over flat top pistons, from memory its got a 850 holley on it, 2v close chambers etc. maybe mild 300 hp maybe less. i suspect the rego would be a nightmare so before i commit to blowing some money just want some good opinions, and this would be a better option then the old facebook ha! Cheers. heres a 10y old picture of the spack.

    351 over heating

    make sure you get the surround with the el fans, helps direct the airflow.

    How to get the oxidise/rust look on a car.

    I might have some parts lying around if you need anything give me a buzz, my HQ is about 90% complete.

    Exhaust fabrication (from headers back)

    Definatly, having 3 bolt flanges is far superior cause it apply's even pressure onto the exhaust flange surface, 2 bolt flanges have a tendency to leak and always have to fix them up from time to time etc I even have gaskets with my 2bolt ones and used exhaust temp silicon and they still leak from time to time over the years.

    body skins for xe

    why would you want new panels anyway? like you can get a good bonnet for a couple hundred bucks in primer.

    hydrocoating water paint

    Yeah it could open doors to hole new graphics etc, airbrushing is becoming a thing of the past for sure, they already do a similar thing with nail art. Put picture on nail, and nail clear over it to seal it. then you got funky nails. Cost wise, you'd be crazy not to get a wrap done or hydro-coating over airbrushing, soon it will be cheaper to print shit out then spray and prep a panel. Babe piper is a sick cunt.

    my bonnets melting :( turbo bags

    You can go confront Wes any time you want Dave. His personally one of the best most honest reasonable people I've ever delt with, everything his sent has been packaged well and i really have no complaints about him only good things to say.

    If you wanted to cool engine bay temps down a bit aswell you can cut a hole into the plenum so the air goes into the vent and pushes the hot air away, seen this done too looks a bit tacky but.
