    Very nice work, only thing I notice is that it's slightly washed out in the middle but 100 times better than anything I've done so I aint trying to give you grief or anything. What size tires are those on the rear? I really like seeing higher profile rubber like that.

    Painless 20120 Harness Installation

    Understood, I used a 67 Stang as my DD from 1982 until 1993 or so. Here in StangNet we've spent so much time and discussion on resto-mods with 400+ HP that I always forget that there are folks who still do :flag:

    Painless 20120 Harness Installation

    Remember, we were talking about the external voltage regulator here. BUT... I'd bet that over 95% of the cars on the road today are internally regulated alternators. I've spoken with Mark (the author of the link you posted) several times and purchased many things from him, but not having an...

    Painless 20120 Harness Installation

    Yeah, I wouldn't use the term "wrong" here, but to explain... You have a little black (blue actually on my car) box bolted to the inner fender that has several wires running to it, you also have an alternator with several wires going to it. These wires also connect to several other components...

    Painless 20120 Harness Installation

    Just offering an unasked-for opinion here but... Why would you go to all the trouble and expense of a custom aftermarket wiring harness and keep that *&$@# voltage-regulator? Now is the time to convert to a 1-wire setup!

    Agreed, awesome! I particularly like the fat rubber.:flag:

    The Official Fox Body Production Number Thread

    I was the original owner of a green 97 Cobra, the only year they made the green ones, I have only seen one like it before or since. It doesn't really matter to me anymore since I traded it in after 99 months of flawless use. But there can't have been many of them made. EDIT: This conversation...

    SHR Louvers Installed!

    The $190 was from Binswanger, $85 per side, from 'the book" that says how many hours each piece takes for year/make/model. I'll call FoMoCo and some body shops tomorrow, thanks for the tip! I cannot justify spending $75 for the tool, plus another ~$25 for the other tools, promoter and...

    SHR Louvers Installed!

    Thanks for the reply, so the factory sealant/glue is pretty strong? I'm not too worried about glass bits getting everywhere, there's already some tint on the inside and I'd coat both sides with sturdy tape too. OEM glass is expensive and I'd like to have the option of returning it to stock...

    SHR Louvers Installed!

    Got mine the other day, did not order the tool though. I've been to a couple of auto-parts stores around here and none of them have the windsheild removal tool. I called a couple of glass shops in the area thinking the labor would be at or around the same price as the special tools and materials...

    Weld on Traction Bars

    The incompatibility between the Shelby bars and the GW subs might be a convertible only problem, I cannot say other than they both wanted the same portion of the rear sub-frame. As far as ride is concerned, they are adjustable, so you can run them loose on the street or on rough pavement and...

    Interior Products

    Some neat products, but I'm not familiar with them. The radio-delete pod is a good idea, as is the engine compartment dress-up kit. Hard to tell from the crappy photos what it really looks like, I'd prefer to see them installed before I'd buy.

    Do I understand that you just broke out the glass rather than remove/re-install the interior?

    That's really nice looking, got any other angles?

    Changed the Fuel Filter ,,,WOW

    I've gone 350 once, usually more like 320 when I fill up though, my car has about 33K in 41 months. So this fuel filter doesn't require tank removal after all?

    Painless 20120 Harness Installation

    Exactly! They do offer "factory style" harnesses, roughly twice the cost of their universal kits. But like you said you have to factor your time and energy into that equation. In my opinion it is worth every penny to have a pre-wired harness that uses all of the factory connectors IF IT...

    Post Pics of Your Mustang

    Oh, I get it...duh....sorry for being dense. I saw 289 and was thinking cast-iron heads with inline valves and pushrods. I spend most of my time in the classic forums where the trend is towards replacing pushrod engines with OHVs. I love the 281-3V in my daily driver, but for my classic I...

    You're putting a 289 into the SN197? Now there's a twist! Anxious to see/hear more, aren't you going to have emissions issues.

    Yeah the car is very nice, the photography (or the editing of the raw images) is professional grade, but the waxjob is incredible!
