[QUOTE="94 DropTop, post: 698607, member: 8993"] Well it has finally warmed up enough(it was 40 tonight) to start doing my heads and cam. So far I have gotten the passenger side completely off and am going to have to wait till morning to get a pulley remover from work to do the drivers side. Tearing it down I have found some interesting things and ran into a few problems. First. I broke the top bolt on the water pump off. No biggy really since it is on the timing cover and I am removing that for the cam. But im worried about more bolt breaking in the block. Makes me not even want to do the cam. What kind of chance do I have on doing this without breaking something? Will someone tell me to quick being a pussy and do it...... Now the interesting stuff When I removed the head I noticed that these is no casting that says its and e7 head. I thought most said E7TE or something similar. I have Nothing. It does have ford cast into it though. So what are they? Second of all, I know this isnt the stock motor. Previous owner let the harmonic balancer go bad and it popped the motor. When I was looking at the pistons i noticed that they all say .030 which would mean this is a 302 bored 30 over right??? They also had a part number on them that i will post up tommorow. But it is 2am here and im going to take a nap. Thanks for the help guys. [/QUOTE]
