Zooksport2 · 03-02-2007, 12:08 AM

I have been working on a 91 F150 equipped with the 351 Windsor engine. Has the EFI intake that lays over the right hand cylinder head. Has all the Air Injection systems, etc. The bloke who pulled it apart, has quit, and I have stupidly agreed to try and get it all back together. Am on a bit of a time limit, but don't want to rush anyone...

I have got the heads back on, the valley cover, and rocker covers on, and now need some help placing all the rest of the bits..... I know where everything goes, sort of, but some pics would really help.

If anyone has access to a similar engine, can you take some pics and email em to me? Need lots of pics, from a few engines if possible, so please send away! This engine was probably used in other vehicles as well, so happy to look at all the options. The only thing is, please tell me what car the pics belong to... Although this Effy is Australian RH drive, the junk under the hood should still be the same.

I dont want you to pull yer car apart, but simply take lots of nice clear pics of the mounting points of things like the coil pack, vacuum hoses, electrical connections, etc.

If the intake pipes coming from the air cleaner to the throttle body were off in the pics, that would be a help, but don't do it unless you really want to.

PM me for email addy.

In case anyone is interested. Who ever rebuilt the engine a few years ago, left the locating dowells out of the block, and it had 5 broken head bolts.

Thank you! update
