    Alternator that looks like a generator. Is there such a thing.

    ndnchf, I just came accross this post and am looking for a generator for my stock 1954 Mercury. Do you have a rebuilt in stock and, if so, will you require a core?

    Ford 385 Family Engine 370 429 and 460

    Kultulz, thanks for your reply. I was a bit cocerned about the 370 block in the first place and the FTE page sort of cleared my concerns. I found a really nice 390 GT engine for my swap instead.

    Ford 385 Family Engine 370 429 and 460

    I have found a 385 Series 370 bored to 429 that I am considering to transplant into my 1956 F-500 flatbed hauler. Looking for constructive comments before I pull the trigger, i.e. interchange and availability of parts between the 370, 429, and 460 (or other families), transmissions, pluses and...

    Modifying Butch's SBF to 54-58 Ford Engine Mounts

    I have a similar question regarding motor mount availability for a swap of a 385 series (370cid) into a 1956 F-500. Is anything readily available or will it have to be fabricated?

    exhaust manifolds identification

    Thanks for all of the comments. I can now be fairly certain to market them as 1954 Ford 239 while still fitting a 256, 272, and 292, depending on which heads match with the size of openings.

    exhaust manifolds identification

    I have a set of Y-block exhaust manifolds and cross-over that I need help identifying as to fitment. The numbers are EBU-9430-B and EBU-9431-C. They were on a 1954 256 cid Mercury but the Mercury parts manual uses the prefix EBY for 1954 instead of EBU. I am guessing that they may be for a...

    1954 Mercury Tail Lights

    John, the p.o. mush have been a moonshiner! Turn off the tail lights, disconnect the brake lites at the master cylinder and go like the wind. Glad I could help. Lanny
