A Main Girdle for an FE Ford big block A cheap alternative to cross bolts, and cheap insurance for ever increasingly rare Ford FE engines. I came up with a design that is much better than ordinary girdles due to the inherent design of the FE block. It ties not just the main caps together, but spans the width and length of the block encompassing the oil pan fasteners and ties the whole bottom of the engine together giving it much more strength and rigidity. Torque nuts clamp the plate tight to the block (NO GASKET) and are recessed in counter bores. A second set of nuts hold the oil pan on. This combined with main studs gives these engines uncompromising strength.This product is patent pending and of Concept Design Engineer LLC design. Kit includes 1.) 3/8 inch thick grade 80 high strength steel main girdle. laser cut & counterbored. 2.) Custom made high performance billet oil pump shaft from Precision Oil Pumps & long oil pump bolts. 3.) High strength 200,000 lb. tensile strength ARP main studs, nuts and washers. 4.) High strength steel main cap spacer straps, along with girdle act as main cap straps yielding even more strength. (NEW IMPROVEMENT!) 5. Oil pan studs, torque nuts, pan nuts and bolts. 6.) Thread locker and gasket sealer. 7.) Complete machining and assembly instructions. 8.) ARP assembly lube. CAN BE SEEN IN OCTOBER 2006 ISSUE OF MUSTANG & FORD, PARTS COUNTER SECTION. There is minor machining required to main caps. Line honing is recommended when using main studs. Made in U.S.A. Immediate Availability. Call Tim 262-388-2509 for more information on this exciting new product. Now including ARP studs, nuts & washers for #5 main cap. Please note pictures #5,6 &7 showing revised construction with main straps replacing washers and including studs for main #5 (not shown in kit picture). This isn't just a piece of steel you slap on the bottom of your engine like most other products, this is a system with all pieces designed to work together to enhance the strength and rigidity of your engine to get the most out of it. Another benefit of using this Girdle is that it increases the oil pan capacity to 7 quarts without any other modifications. |

Porsche's new '911': the Cayenne fire engine
Wed, 10 Sep 2008By Nick Eaton First Official Pictures 10 September 2008 10:13 Another day, another Porsche variant. Stuttgart's fire department has taken delivery of two red-hot Cayennes with a difference: they're emergency vehicles which have been specially tweaked by Porsche's Training Centre for the city's firemen. The Stuttgart fire service claims that the hilly topography of the city meant it needed all-terrain emergency vehicles, and the project was given to local firm Porsche because the Cayenne served up the firemen's needs for something that can go anywhere fast. Nothing at all with them wanting to arrive in style or make neeh-naah noises in a Porsche.

Thu, 18 Mar 2010We all have fantasies about meeting long dead heroes, dreams like seeing the Beatles play onstage, going dirt bike riding with Steve McQueen, or talking politics with JFK. Until they improve cloning technology, we won't be heading out to the desert with Steve, but there is one legend that is reborn and ready to ride. An Oklahoma based custom coachbuilder called Classic Recreations announced at the auto-industry love-fest called SEMA last November that they had struck a deal with Shelby American to put one of the most famous Ford muscle cars ever built back into production - the 1967 Shelby GT500.
