289 Interceptor/ 302 ford wanted Printed From: CorrectCraftFan.com Category: Buy and Sell Forum Name: Boat Parts Wanted Forum Discription: Parts wanted only URL: http://www.CorrectCraftFan.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15857 Printed Date: November-18-2024 at 9:27am Topic: 289 Interceptor/ 302 ford wanted Posted By: ThefishingMechine2 Subject: 289 Interceptor/ 302 ford wanted Date Posted: November-20-2009 at 4:16pm Well we would like a 289 interceptor for our 68 freeport, like it came stock. But, we would also go for the 302 ford because we beleive that will bolt right up. We would prefer that it was in good condition. Running doesn't matter cause we can rebuild the motor as long as we do not have to machine it.

The new blocks don't necessarily bolt up to the old bell housings. I'm sure one of the guys can fill in the blanks regarding the details but it has something to do with the quantity and location of the bolts. There's a thread on it someplace too. I'm confused with you not needing a running engine, can rebuild it, but have a problem with machine work. There must be someone in your area that will bore/grind??? South Bend isn't that remote!!!! BTW, most people who do their own rebuilds will job out the machine work. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < Posted By: Fl Inboards Date Posted: November-21-2009 at 9:37pm Contact Art Cozier at Correct Craft he has leads on a number of those motors, acozier at correctcraft dot com Tell him Jody sent ya! ------------- Hobby Boats can be expensive when the hobbyist is limited on their own skill and expertise. 1993 Shamrock "fat" 20. 2008 Nautique 196 5.0 Posted By: ThefishingMechine2 Date Posted: November-22-2009 at 12:24am 8122pbrainard wrote: Careful with the bell housing bolt pattern.

Plus it is a hassle, we could probably find someone to machine the block and heads on the motor we have. But then we will have to get tons of parts with it most likely. ------------- Posted By: lhalliii Date Posted: November-25-2009 at 10:15pm I have a 74 302 out of Mustang 17 w/ drive & shaft.

You supply a 289 302 or 351 long block and bolt the parts on.
