Please check back often-we do frequent updates to this page! UPDATED 12/30/11 12/30/11 HAPPY NEW YEAR! D&D would like to wish all of our friends & customers a Happy, Prosperous & Safe New Year! Please order early- our lead times for headers are currently pretty reasonable but are already getting longer. ‘Most’ other items can ship in 72 hours or less.
12/1/11 PLEASE READ-IMPORTANT TIP! Since D&D has been involved with the Fox body & SN95 cars and engine swaps since the mid 1980’s, contacting us “FIRST” can save you needless wasted dollars & hours of hassles with the swap and build.. These vehicles (Mustang/Fox/SN95) are a fantastic platform for the engine swaps & upgrades! DON”T MAKE THE ENGINE SWAP & PROJECT MORE DIFFICULT THAN NECESSARY!! Contact us first before you get into buying a pile of components that will complicate & undermine the results of your project! We get a dozen phone calls “every” day from people who have already purchased components/combinations and have major problems/issues with them. We are not above trying to help someone who has purchased a component from someplace other than D&D but the truth of the matter is that we don’t have a magic wand to make the incorrect component the correct component . This is not only frustrating for the customer but for us as well when we know that a simple call (or e mail) to us first could have saved the customer a lot of time,grief & money!
10/7/11 check out our new "Shop Supplies & Tools" section. http://www.ddautospec.com/products_tools.html
This page includes Ford specialty engine building tools as well as oils, chemicals and other shop related equipment and items. Newly updated 460 Fox 7qt oil pans!! Canton has been our oil pan of choice in our swap kits as well as the 100’s of performance 429/460 engines that D&D has built for over 20 years. D&D has been working with Canton on some upgrades to the 460 Fox body oil pans. With the ever increasing potential of the Ford 460 series motor and some feedback from D&D ,our customers & other professional Ford engine builders , some additional oil control features have been added. These changes include a full slosh baffle covering the main rear sump .Changes also included tapering the rear of the front sump for easier & lower fitment in some applications as well as to aid the oil returning to the front sump to be able to run to the main rear sump on acceleration! These newly updated pans will be included in all of our 460 swap kits that use the 7qt oil pans! These updated 460 Fox oil pans are currently available through D&D! If you need photos of the pan, please e mail or contact us. 7/14/11
D&D now offers a V shaped front motor plate in addition to our current rectangular shaped plate at “NO EXTRA CHARGE“. Some prefer the appearance of the V shaped plates to the rectangular plates. In some cases the larger rectangular plate gives you more room to mount accessories such as vaccum pumps, accumulators, coils etc. Now you have a choice! Either plate is available in any of our D&D Stage 1,2 or 3 engine mounting system kits for the Fox & SN95 chassis Mustangs and cars and will work with our mounting brackets. These new V plates are also available in our complete engine swap kits. Available for 5.0,302,351W,351C ,429,460 & FE 6/14/11 Effective July 1st 2011 Canton will have a price increase on many of their oil pans and other products. We will still honor our current prices on oil pans and components in stock as well as engine swap kits using their swap pans until our current supply is exhausted. After that we will have no choice but to pass on the price increase on their oil pans,components & D&D engine swap kits that include them.
