Re: Might get back into the Merkur game and had a question
I think you are better off modifying what is already there I work with mustang II and various other custom front ends every day and aside from the benefit of a quick motor swap I am not sure that you would be gaining anything.

International Scout II
I am continually purchasing the bastard children of the world cars so I sold my 56 ford pick up and needed a old truck. Sooo while helping my dad move from Leadville Colorado back east to Charolettesville, Virginia I located a real beast, a 1973 International Scout 2 with a myers plow on it so I shi...

ranger 2.5 Crankshaft
I looked for a good hour last night and couldn't find the information I need. What is involved in using a ranger crankshaft? I have a short block with 80k on it from an 2001 ranger and I was reading about making my 2.3 engine a 2.5 but I cant find any real concrete info about what has to be done to ...

Re: My upgrade to Eaton LSD Differential

The valves were set up to work with that cam and the appropriate machine work involved with its installation was done. I may have to see if there is a grid that will be more viable to the turbo set up while still running those valves.As for bo port you could be right its probably just a mix up in my...

Re: racer walsh

Strictly a feeling thing, it in no way reflects their product and I am not really opposed to using he product.

Re: racer walsh
Well, this was about 10 years ago I bought the parts life just got in the way and I didn't get back to it(kids,works,school).. I suspect (hope)the over sized valves I had them grind my head for will still work with either an essy or bo-port cam. I don"t know if I like the bo-port stuff though. ...
