Project Snow Ball
#1
It all started when my clutch release bearing started squealing a few months ago. With warmer weather came renewed focus and I decided to tackle it last week. Pulled the tranny and transfer case for the first time. It went pretty much as planned. Then my Dad says, "now would be the best time to pull the motor and clean it up". Hence the name project snow ball :toothy12:. It's really amazing how productive I can be when the wife is out of town for work :xyxthumbs: My garage now looks like the Bronc got the dreaded stomach bug and vomited the drivetrain. :hysterical: I'm contemplating my next moves. Confusedcratchhe:

The 351W is in pretty good shape but certainly needs some enhancement and cleanup. New intake & carb, valve covers, and maybe a new ignition system. I have a new set of JetHot coated headers ready for install. We'll see how the budget holds up.

As for the tranny, it's the original 3 spd. I've thought about the NP435 but not sure I really need to upgrade to it. I do think it's time to abandon the 3-on-the-tree. I may just get the tranny rebuilt and move it to the floor.

It may be time for a wrenching party in Raleigh! :beer: :popc1:
