intake valves cause they are the smaller valves


umm, the exhaust valves are smaller than the intake's.

i made a guess
I was wrong
correction i guess its exhaust valves that are pure white, all except one is black
all plugs are white

yep
waiting for my brothers friend to drop it off.
his friend is my saving grace
let me use his brand new in box engine stand(the one my 302 is on), his hoist, the welder hes giving me, and he payed for the grade 8 bolts I got to hold the motor up. He's been great
Once I clean out the shed some, im gonna start into the motor some. Pull the lifter reatiners, lifters, timing chain, and cam. I wanna try and see what condition the stuff is in, and attempt to figure out what the hell its got for a cam!
rainy weekend so no body work updates on the linc, but update for me, im single and 100% happier now! Means more time for work, and the car. Hell yes!!

Friends are a good thing, aren't they?
You should be able to do some panel work with a flux core welder.
I've never used one for sheetmetal, but I hear it works.
I can see some SFCs in your future too. LOL
I'll be waiting for the new updates.

yea im gonna try to make some
I ummm "borrowed" some long lenghts of square tubing, angle, and some 1/2 flat stock from my school shop class, so I wanna make front and rear strut bars(only doing a rear because this car is FAT and if i can get any flex out of it, GOOD) and possibly SFC's if i dont buy some.

It would be cheaper buying the tubing and making your own SFCs.
Unless you already borrowed some tubing for that.

What did you use for the cold-air intake? MAF or SD? I'm running the stock airbox with K&N filter and the resonator removed, but I'm wondering if a cold-air intake might make sense, especially since I have a 65mm TB, bored-out upper, 19# injectors, and "more cam" (whatever the mechanic means by that, LOL).

T/C rear sway bar
Electrical mods: too many to list :D

its a used cheapo mustang CAI kit for SD I payed 60 for it, and its been a nice mod, you can really hear it when you punch the gas down, and now with the TB, man the sound and response from jsut taping the gas is awesome!!
you can see it better in this older pic
