I'm new to this forum. I've just joined because I've decided to install a 5.0L ford in my '72 Z. I came to the conclusion that I've wrung just about all the performance I can from my 3.0 straight six. I'm not a super/turbo charger kinda guy. I like NA, so after fuel injecting (electromotive tec2) and raising compression 10.7:1 with oil coolers, aluminum rads, and custom everything, I've decided to move to the V8 world. The six was a lot of fun, both building and driving. I autocross (ftd at National Convention in New Hamshire 2003), do track days. and I like to drive it to the events rather than trailering. So I've taken the six as far as I can (232rwhp, 175ftlbtorque) and still keep it reliable and a 'daily' driver. I've been doing a lot of research on the 5.0L conversion and your picture site as been very helpful, but leaves lots of questions.
1) The driveshaft you use is 'an all ford'. Did you have this custom made or is it retrofitted from another vehicle?
2)What part# is the slave cylinder you use?
3)What part# is the master cylinder you use?
I'm sure I'll think of more but thats enough for now. Thanks for the information and the inspiration! I'm really enjoying this forum. It reminds me of when I first got into Z's and I was doing my research on the IZCC(early 90's) I'm enjoying learning about the Ford Small block
Thanks again
