    I think we should all put LS motors in our cars! It seems to be the thing to do.

    My engine is in my 1977 2 dr mav. Original. 302 that looks almost new still. Some day hope to go through engine and just give it a little more horse power. Anyone have any ideas how to do that keeping the engine looking stock

    I have a 251 Cleveland in my Maverick



    It was a regular run-of-the-mill 250 cubic inch six cylinder but now that the cylinder walls have a little wear from 40-1/2 years of operation. This wear has increased the bore a little bit. The block was casted at the Cleveland foundry. :yup:
