    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?

    Also where can I get those little expandable billow thingies for my power steering. Stupid PSC reservoir leaks when on its side
    Yeah, get rid of the tube that connects it to the intake.

    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

    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.

    car 5.0 intake is lower than truck intake. It also has 1 throttle bore instead of 2 like the trucks. If it looks like tbi you are looking at very early stuff, like pre 86

    lower plenum may or may not be the same on a truck vs car. Some are round, some are square, some are round double stackish shaped.

    Which would be better to take my engine to cooks or vilas? Both the same price for what I need, just seeing if there is one people like better than the other.

    I've had them both do good work for me. The only complaint I have is the attitude at Cook's kinda sucks. I think a couple of club members have been screwed by Vila's though? John Brown's knuckle? Seems like someone else had knuckle machining problems with them?

    They're probably fine with engine stuff though since that's what they are used to doing.
