    I've got some shackles that I bought a while back at a little tool store next to a tax office in san antonio. They don't have any markings except 3/4 on the side which is the size. Think these are good enough for trail use or should I get some better ones?

    yeah, 3/4 is pretty decent size. lots of folks use smaller. not to mention safety factor

    any ideas for keeping the PCV valve from dumping oil into the intake and hydrolocking the engine.

    Also where can I get those little expandable billow thingies for my power steering. Stupid PSC reservoir leaks when on its side

    I know it is ghetto, but a lot of people use rubber pipe connectors that you can get at Lowe's or Home depot.

    And is the PCV dumping oil because you are on an incline? Or id the engine crap?

    PCV is dumping oil because the motor was upside down not a regular occurrence but I would prefer to not have to deal with it again

    Yeah, get rid of the tube that connects it to the intake.

    no adverse problems. what should I do to keep it from dumping out oil?

    some sort of rollover valve that would close when upside down

    Will a doubler from a th350 bolt up to my sm 465 assuming I had the right 203- 32 spilne input?

    Anyone know if benders like the jd and pro tools ate designed to bend stainless or aluminium? I think the above two are measured in OD specs?

    I think you have to bore the th350 version 203 case out to accept the 32 spline input and bearing.

    the benders will bend aluminum and stainless. however if you plan on doing aluminum you may look into some different follower shoes so you don't mar up the aluminum

    Do all FI fords come with the giant intake that spans the whole engine and then some?

    I think i saw/heard karl talking about a lower profile intake?

    referring to the 90's variety 5.0/5.8.

    To my knowledge, all of the trucks came with an intake that runs from front to back (as you describe). These have 8 injectors. For some reason 5.0 cars (LTD, Marquis, etc....) have a throttle body like intake (like a chevy). I have never seen anyone use this for an aftermarket install and have to assume that it therefore sucks.

    I am not sure on the height difference in a mustang vs truck intake.
