    Do I have a 1968 Shelby block?

    Hi, I didn't look at the links posted but,You definately have a 302 block. Ford phased out the 289's in 68 and started with a recast small block the 302 hence the C8OE Which stands for 1968. For the record it is possible that your engine has some Hipo pieces on it as alot of parts interchange...

    86 project car ??

    I'm a big fan of projects. That said, First I'd go look at it,but I wouldn't make an offer on it, It's his car,he knows all about it,needs it gone,etc. I'd let him say a price. I always make sellers quote a price,because it's either unrealistic and I walk or it's reasonable and I can still make...

    I like things sort of stock, I am not a resto mod kind of guy at all. That being said I like to improve preformance where and when I can. If you looked around you could get a pair of shorty headers to replace your stock restictive manifolds,you could even run a pair of takeoff stock headers from...

    Hello and welcome, I've always liked the pacecars. As far as an exhaust are you looking to stay with the stock manifolds,stock exhaust,etc.? You could switch the car over to a true dual exhaust easily enough.

    Going rate for Mustang?

    I keep a pretty close eye on the Mustang market and as others have mentioned the lower the miles and the closer it is to stock the better. Something else I have noticed as well with the Foxes is stick versus auto,Sticks bring better money.I recently purchased a loaded 88 5.0 lx vert with 42,000...
