![]() ![]() I have a double hump pan, so I'm good to go there (though curiously it was the pan on the 68 302 in the car when I bought it. The motor I bought is an 87 HO motor from a Mustang. And if running an older type oil pan make sure to use the 302 pickup tube ect. Everything went back together just fine.Ī few pics showing the timing cover pins or tubes and the different covers ect.The pic of the bottom of the intake is where I groved it to hold the silicone for sealing. Just need to fire it up after putting it back in the Merc. It's a DuraSpark type, which I allready had in the Merc with an MSD 6A box, works killer. I used a dizzy with a steel gear for a 1985 Mustang (last year for carb) to retain the look of an early dist. My AOD flex plate had the right bolt pattern for the old C4 converter so I got lucky and used it and the 5.0L starter motor.ħ. Start putting the 5.0L back together with the 302 eccentic, timing chain cover, water pump and intake AND make sure you put the 5.0L BALANCER back on the 5.0L.Ħ. Luckily my 302 had the 2 piece with tab style like the 5.0L cam had, but without the eccentric as it was a FI motor. If running a mechanical fuel pump, be sure to put the fuel pump eccentic on the cam. Clean all the machined suffaces of the 5.0L, Plug off the exhaust crossover holes in the back of the head, and remove the timing chain cover alignment tubes in the front of the 5.0L block.Ĥ. I ended up using the 5L oil pan as it is a one piece rubber impregnated steel gasket and did'nt mesh with all that because you really can't see the oil pan once in the vehical.ģ. Clean all the 302 parts you will be using, timing cover, water pump, intake, and oil pan if desired. tear down both engines to long block and don't get the parts mixed.Mark 302 and mark 5L to save confusion.Ģ. Here's what I did, I had a complete 302/C4 out of my Merc and I had a complete 5.0L/AOD trans out of a 89 wagon.ġ.
