Crate Motor Install
I think I'm all set to start the motor swap. I've got the following parts:
o Ford Racing 5.0 M-6007-XE3
o 50 oz. Damper to fit 3 bolt crank shaft
o 50 oz. Flex plate
o Mildon oil pan with windage tray
o 1.6 roller rockers
o Roller timing chain
o Mini Ford starter
o Ford Racing Aluminum valve covers
o Gasket set
o Shims for the roller rockers
o Head plugs
o Edlebrock Performer RPM intake
o Demon 625 cfm carb
I plan to put all the new parts on the crate motor except induction, then pull the 289 and swap in the 5.0. Any words of wisdom before I start? I'd appreciate every tip I can get.
Thanks,
