can any one help me out ? Im interested in a set of FE headers for my 70' mustang. the crites headers that I was told about have 2'' dia. primaries and a collector thats 3.5''x approx. 5''long. does any one know what the length of the primaries are on thease headers??, are they equal length?? I know that they are long tube headers but Id like to know a little more about them before I make the investment and buy them. any help is appreciated, thanks. |
| 427 intake? -- Whit, 11/12/2004
If the number were C3AE 9426-K then the manifold could be an original 4X2 Ford 427 low rise intake. Yes? If it has no "K" at the end is it the same thing? |

| Ford 390 fe cyl legnth -- Sts, 11/10/2004
Does anyone know the legnth of the cylinder in the 390 FE?? I have a 66 block and I need custom pistons but lack this information-and now that the block is in the machine shop I can't measure it on my own. Help?? |

| 69 Mustang "S" Code w/Shaker -- Matthew Keiser, 11/09/2004
Hey guys, I'm posting for the first time. I have a 69 Mach I, "S" Code and a Marti AutoWorks report showing it optioned with the Shaker Hood Scoop. The Shaker was missing from the car when I bought it, so the scavenger hunt is on! I've aquired the correct air cleaner base and scoop assembly, however, I'm still trying to get a concensus on the heat shield, snorkel, and S tube. I've purchased the pieces I thought were correct, which includes a one piece heat shield, metal S tube, and snorkel with the flange on the inside of the S tube. Some have said this is not correct - the heat shield should be two pieces and the heat riser tube should be the paper type? Anyone know for sure? Also, some say the scoop should have the 390 emblems, some say no emblems? Any help would be greatly appriciated!! |
| C80E-H heads -- Davy Gurley, 11/07/2004
I've got a pair of these heads and would like to know what they were originally designed for. They are currently on a 427 and have 16 bolt holes on the exhaust side. Yes, I tried 'search' and got nothing under C80E-H and when I hit on 'heads' I got a bazillion hits. After 32 pages I went crosseyed and decided to just ask. Thanks for your time. |

| 68-9 390GT pulley and bracket numbers -- Ed S, 11/05/2004
Looking for part and/or casting numbers for 68-9 390 GT engines that had AC in a Mustang or Cougar. I would imagine that there would be a few cars that could interchange like a Fairlane or Torino and may be engines like the X, Q and R codes. These parts I guess could also have been ruled as obsolete and replaced by Ford with other parts they felt where superior. |
| | RE: 68-9 390GT pulley and bracket numbers -- Hawkrod, 11/05/2004
Thats is quite a few numbers your asking for. except for the water pump pulley and a couple of brackets all the parts are different from 68 to 69 on the S code engine. Also note that most stuff from the 428 and the X code are the same for the specific year but there can be differences. What year and model are you specifically looking for? It is easier to find the correct parts and then list what else they fit. Some stuff that seems obviously the same isn't, for example, if you have 68 Mustang S code 390 the AC pump bracket is different than an early 68 Fairlane/Torino S code 390! Hawkrod |

I’m specifically looking for the 69 Cougar with a S-code because I think I have that stuff in a box and I know of someone with a 69 Mustang that is looking for it. I also picked up some odds and ends to add AC into my 68 Mustang but decided to stay airless. I would like to see if I got ripped or not. I’m going over to my parent’s house on Saturday to look for the boxes. So for starters a 68 Mustang S-code w/PS and wo/AC, one w/PS and w/AC and most importantly a 69 S-code w/PS and w/AC. Not sure if the dual alternator pulley was for non-AC cars or not or both.
Would the Master Parts CD that is sold on here have that information? |
| | RE: 68-9 390GT pulley and bracket numbers -- Ed S, 11/07/2004
How about starting with pulleys for a 68 Mustang with a 390 GT engine w/PS and wo/Air. Also do all 390 GTs have a dual sheave alt pulley? |
| Engine ID -- JOhn, 11/04/2004
I have a engine that I'm trying to identify, block is C6ME-A, heads C7AE-A and intake is C5AE-9425C |
| | RE: It's anything from a 352 to a 428. -- Gerry Proctor, 11/05/2004
Except for a 427 (which that block casting number is not) you can't identify FE-series engines soley from casting numbers. But from the casting numbers you provided, it appears that your engine has probably been fiddled with over its lifetime(66 block, 67 heads, 65 intake but not absolutely).
You can tell the displacement by measuring the bore and stroke. You can get the stroke part of the equation by referencing the crank flywheel flange if that is visible to you (search the forum for "flywheel flange" to get the full scoop on scallops, holes and such for ID) or by using the wire in the spark plug hole method where you cycle the engine from TDC to BDC but the bore will have to actually be measured to know for sure. |
| | RE: Engine ID -- giacamo, 11/07/2004
your block can be any thing ford used a standerd over cast for the block in most comon aps. and sluged the bores for the displacement size wial casting,i,d say you have a 66 block 67 heads and a 65 intake pull the pan get the crank numbers list them or remove a head and start mesering the bore and strock to know for shure. |
| Question on Cylinder Heads -- Derek, 11/04/2004
I'm helping a friend work on a '67 F100. He was told the engine is a 352 Police Interceptor but I'm not sure at this point. The exhaust valves are severely sunk in the C6AE-R heads but we also have a pair of D2TE-AA heads on an engine that is laying around. Do I have this right:
C6AE-R Rated at 72cc but measure closer to 76cc. Pre-emission intake runner. Higher exit exhaust port.
D2TE-AA Approx. 67cc combustion chamber. Induction hardened exhaust seats.
We'd like to use the D2 heads to save the expense of putting new seats in the C6s. We have exhaust manifolds from both engines so the port mismatch shouldn't hurt. What about the intake? We have a Performer 390 that was on the "352"....will it match up to the D2 heads ok? We don't have everything apart yet but need to get it back together fairly quick. Don't want to mess up our compression or really hurt the performance though.
Thanks for the help,
Derek |
| | RE: Question on Cylinder Heads -- Derek, 11/04/2004
Couple more things:
How much would our compression change? Both heads have non adjustable rockers.
Popped a valve out and there doesn't appear to even be enough metal left to put in a seat if we wanted to! Worst I've seen so far.

thay would problie work fine the truck heads if off of the industeral truck engins. youl need to use the intake to with it,s diferent exaust crose over...... |
