headlight problems… if one headlight burns out, do they both not turn on? fuse is cool, parking lights work, one bulb is good, didn’t check the other… but the headlights won’t turn on… if i was at the car i could check a lot better, but i’m not… so just wondering if foxbody’s have a common headlight issue… flame away, it IS a mustang anyway… :eek4: ---

> [@turbovw18](#): > > so why would both headlights just all of a sudden stop working? wiring or a fuse :dunno: i know my wiring got fucked from time to time in my fox. i had the problem with the headlights on a thunderbird i owned. and it was a little wiring problem up front under the hood. some wires would slide off a connector attached to the rad support. real easy to see. maybe thats the problem. ---

it’s a gt with a swap 347 or whatever. the fogs were pulled outta the car… the switch has those 2 settings, parking then headlights… the parking lights work fine… both headlights won’t turn on though… BUT the high beams work (same bulb i think)… fuses are 100% ok. ---

I’ll bite. Most none DIY’ers do pay for a brand new block etc etc when doing stroker kits, simply because they may possibly be doing something more (nitrous, supercharger, turbocharger etc). BUT… originally, its still a 5.0 block. So you’re not really doing a swap. In my eyes, a swap would be going to a 351W. Since it’s a different block. I can make a 302 into a 331, and a 347 etc etc. But I can’t make a 351 into a 302, or a 302 into a 351. ---

a swap is when you take out an engine and put a new one it. weather its a 302-\>302 or a 302-\>486stroker ---

I just don’t feel “stroking” an engine, should be regarded the same. What would you call it, if i decided to retain my stock block, and goto a 5.1 stroker? Would you call that a swap? edit: bailing out of this arguement. since mac likes to argue all of my points [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/attn-foxbody-drivers-shaggy/167062.md?page=2)
