    Default Running 306 and t5

    I have this drivetrain I pulled from an 86 Mustang of mine.

    It does run, I heard it run before I bought the car. I removed it from the car and removed the oil pan to double check some things. There was barely any sludge on the bottom of the pan. Just a little bit by the 2 sumps on the Fox body pan, and I scraped that out. There are no loose rod ends indicating spun bearings, the oil is plenty black still and not milky from water being mixed in or anything. The engine is clean and ready to rock. Here are some details:

    306 roller motor
    E303 cam with Ford Racing roller lifters
    Brand new water pump
    Brand new oil pump
    New front and rear seals with the motor regasketed
    Mac long tubes (with an H-pipe, also more than likely a Mac)
    New double roller timing chain
    Some porting on the stock heads
    Weiand Stealth intake
    Holley 600cfm carb
    Mallory Unilite Comp something-er-other distributor
    MSD Blaster 2 coil
    Chrome valve covers

    New clutch and pressure plate, not even broken in yet
    Pro 5.0 shifter
    Brand new Ford Motorsport throwout bearing, no miles
    New speedometer cable, no miles
    Steeda double hook quadrant (used)
    5.0 Resto firewall adjuster

    I don't really know what to ask for this, but I'm not going to give it away. You can pick it up, install it in any old Ford car or truck you want and instantly have a running car. Or you can even buy the Fox chassis I have, and put it right back in. I'm going to start asking around $800 obo for it. If it's too high then make a reasonable offer. If I find out it's too low for a running drivetrain, then I'm going to adjust it to a fair price so I'm not getting screwed.

    I can take any pics a potential buyer might want, and I am NOT parting the motor out.

    Here are pics taken today. The headers narrow down to 2.5" after the flange that connects to the h-pipe and tightens them together.

    I wouldn't mind splitting it up, but I'd really prefer to sell it all at once. That way someone could have a full on running drivetrain ready to drop in a Ford vehicle.

    How bout you PM me with an offer for what you want and maybe I'll take it. Just don't lowball me, cuz I won't even think about it.

    Alright turns out selling for $800 for the motor and tranny woulda been selling myself way short. The general consenus among Ford guys is that combo is worth $1200ish. So PM me with offers people.

    Alright, $700 for the motor for now. If I miss out on the truck deal I won't need to sell the motor at this price, as I won't need the extra dough. $200 for the tranny. I didn't drive the car so I can't guarantee the tranny is perfect, but it is incredibly clean, there's no oil all over it or grease or nothing.

    Tranny, bellhousing, and throwout bearing are sold.

    Motor plus flywheel, pressure plate, and clutch are still here. $700 for the last of my Ford motor parts. If the truck I'm wanting sells, then I won't be in a hurry to sell this motor for spare cash anymore, and it'll go back to the regular price of around $800-850.

    All the Mustang stuff I have left is the long tubes and h-pipe, the new speedo cable, Steeda quadrant, and the firewall adjuster.
