What have you done to your Bronco today?

[66 Bronco Dave]

M5OD manual clutch. Built a bracket to convert my M5 to manual clutch. I’ve heard a lot of guys complain about hydraulic clutches so I’ll have to see if the manual is better

Started it yesterday and moved it out of the garage and into the covered bay next door.

Got a little more done tonight, not the prettiest but it's better than it was. Plenty more to fix before I'm done.

Went from a running driving bronco to well not that . Finally time to take out the 300-6 and put in the 5.0/4r70w combo. I’ll be cleaning up and painting the engine bay before the new motor goes in View attachment 940826 View attachment 940827

So, what made you decide to do that? i alwways thouht a 300 would be perfect in an EB.

Spotted this Bronco in the wild today in St Charles MO. The distortion on the paint is the dust from the tornados/storms Friday. I grabbed for my phone as quick as possible because I wasn’t sure what the hell I was seeing. Anyone have info on this thing?

Just put shock hoops on the rear of mine. Am going to re-cover the wife's seats this weekend and hopefully hook up the heated seats ;D you

What rear hoop is that? From a vendor or did you make it?

Someone else might answer but he hasn't logged on since August 4, 2021.

Today I cleaned and reinstalled side seat belt cover panels, added floor mats and tried to figure out how to clip the front of the bench seat cover down. I added some items into my shopping cart, oh if only I could print money..lol

I really liked the 300. I got my bronco as a broke 19 year old and dad had an f150 for free so I got the motor and wiring/efi and have ran it for the past 12 years. That said, I installed it cheap as I could with the factory 3 on the tree and 4.10 gears so it was wound out by 50-55 and I was never happy with that. I have the m5od from the f150 that I was planning to put in it but the 300 timing cover is leaking basically non-stop to the point I got told I could drive it to my last job because of the oil stains . And the way the engine fits it has to come out to pull the oil pan. I had an explorer with the 5.0/4r70w combo so I decided now was the time. The 300 was an awesome tractor motor with low rpm torque but it wasn’t a great fit in the engine bay. I notched the firewall and had to push the radiator through the core support right up to the back of the grill.

Back on topic, I painted the engine bay/firewall tonight and prepped to drop the motor in tomorrow. Just need to pickup engine mount bolts and finalize the hole in the firewall for the computer and I’ll be ready.

Putting the speakers in…gotta have my tunes. A little nerve racking cutting into the beautiful panels with the trim router, but it turned out alright!
