      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Thinking about snagging these. I&#039;m working on swapping in a 5.0 from a &#039;92 F-150, and the manifolds were completely shot. Any issues with clearance for headers meant for Foxbody&#039;s? I don&#039;t know the manufacturer, but I could ask if he has a part number. Also, good deal or not? Thanks!

I would like very much for everyone that replies to this thread to tell how many cars they have, including parts cars but seperate them like I did below. I personally have 9 Mavericks, five 71 Grabbers, a 72 Grabber, a 72 Sprint, a 76 Stallion, and a 73 LDO parts car.<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<span style="font-size: 18px">Hi, Mav and Comet Friends!<br />
I have a &#039;71 Mav with a 200.<br />
Having pulled the radiator for a leak, I thought to myself, <br />
&quot;What else can I do?&quot; Obviously, a complete valve job, <br />
timing chain/gears, lifters...and camshaft? From my research, <br />
it&#039;s looking like if I replace the lifters, the cam should go too.<br />
<br />
It looks like I can pull the cam out, with the front grill out.<br />
I&#039;ve seen there are several reputable cam manufacturers out<br />
there, which do you recommend...and for the lifters also....</span><br />

Biggest is swapping the Tremec TKO for the TKX. The TKO is just to tight in the &#039;69.5 tunnel. Tremec says we are starving the front of the trans because we can&#039;t get it any higher than 5.1° down. The TKX should solve that without cutting the tunnel...I hope. <br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I finally took my Maverick on a road trip (about 100 miles round-trip) with the new Koni STR.T front shocks. I haven&#039;t installed my OpenTracker roller spring perches yet, because I wanted to compare the difference (if any) between shocks. Well, I really didn&#039;t notice any difference in ride quality between these Koni shocks and the KYB EXCEL-G shocks I had on there. The Konis are supposed to be valved to work with lowered suspensions, and are physically &quot;fatter&quot; than the KYBs, but there was...<br />
