    8.8" vs 9"

    I have had a lot of experience with the Fox 8.8s. Does anyone know the track width of the 67-70 9", Fox 8.8, and the SN-95? The wider the better since I am going to be running after market rims. Also the Lincolns have 3.73/3.55s and Disc brakes. Thanks

    Would you sell this mint 66 Fastback for the new GT500? (pics)

    One word answer. NO They are going for way over the sticker price. Plus all they will do is devalue for a long time. Don't get me wrong they are nice cars but in the end all they are is another new mustang. Granted SC'ed but they will always be there and will be cheaper in a year or two...

    351W Block question.

    Hmmm... I have noticed a lot of people are saying 500 is the limit of a 351w? I have sen many many over 500 hp Windsor motors. Infact one of them is mine. I was pushing 600 plus at the rear wheels and have had no problems what so ever. In fact I know someone that had a stock rotateing assemnly...

    Need some help at the strip

    The 280H cam is that the .512 lift cam? What were your shift points? What type of Drag Radials? Were they BFs or MTs? I think your main loss is in your launch. 1.9 60 ft time isn't the best. Try to launch at a higher RPM. You should be able to launch higher with Drag radials. What I usually do...

    Need some help at the strip

    I can't give you much advice on the susp. setup since I am new to leaf springs. But what is your engine modifications? ALso your 60 ft times are kind of weak. WHat are you using for rear tires? With a 100 mph trap time you will need a very good launch to reach the 12s. What did your plugs look...

    new parts are in and I collect the car tomorrow

    You should be fine. My friend had a 68 camaro with a gear drive in it. He ran the piss out of it and put about 40k miles on it before one of the cast pistons broke, but I think that is from the high RPMs he ran. Did you get the noisy or quiet one? My friend and I got tired of people saying...

    new parts are in and I collect the car tomorrow

    In my experience and with what other engine builders have told me. Is that "TRUE" roller chain and any roller chain will stretch fairly quickly and they are more prone to breaking because the bearings make the links real thin. ALso I am not to big of fan on the Gear drives just because of the...

    T-5 Tranny qestions

    Theres really nothing you can tell from the outside. Other than the obvious cracked housing like you mentioned. I think for the price its not a bad deal at all. The only thing to maybe look at is how much movement is in the front shaft. Usually the older ones are pretty sloppy. Also if you...
