Cleaning out the garage, throwing crap away...
Posted: Sun Feb 27, 2011 6:31 pm
I cleaned out the garage of crap from the new 331. The only things I think there might be value in is:
- Stock Explorer roller cam. This cam is nothing I can brag about but with 1.7RRs, it might be OK. I've read on a few truck forums that carbed guys really like the Explorer cam. I don't know what they like about it, but if someone wants it, I have no plans for it.
- Stock Explorer pistons and connecting rods
- Stock Explorer 302 crankshaft...a standard Ford 302 crank. I believe its the same crank Ford has used in 302s since the 50oz balance.
- Stock Explorer rockers/valve springs/retainers. I'm not sure these are worth the shipping. But I thought I'd offer before they get dumped.
- Stock Explorer fuel rail with FPR. It doesn't have the Schrader valve in it. It's a little rusty but the inside of the tubes look OK.
- Stock Explorer tube-style manifolds (DS and PS) complete with foil heat shields. They aren't that great for flow, but they are a fit for GT40p heads and offer great clearance in a Ranger engine bay. They would be an OK manifold for a budget build.
- Stock Explorer pickup tube and aluminum oil pan. I can't remember if the pan is from a 2wd or 4wd Explorer if it even matters. I might even still have the longer pan bolts necessary when running that aluminum pan.
- Stock Explorer timing chain and gears. It's NOT a double-roller. I don't know that these are ever reused given you can replace them for fairly cheap. But if someone wants this set, it appears to be in good shape.
