    CTS-V Calipers, anyone tried to use them?

    B, I think you're missing my point. The thickness of the rotor may work fine with that Brembo or other 6 pot caliper, but the caliper is too long (or tall) to work with the smaller diameter rotor. In my crude picture below, the heavy black line represents a 12" rotor. The green line...

    CTS-V Calipers, anyone tried to use them?

    The problem with trying to fit those calipers over 12" rotors is that although they will sit closer to the (rotors rotation) centerline, the ends of the caliper will sit much further away, as they were designed to fit on a 14". It will cause interference with your wheel (think you're trying to...

    Over the counter in 65?

    To the original poster: You weren't clear as to engine dress up items or performance items. I have the "Ford Mustang Special Issue!" from April-May 1964 Ford publication called Shop Tips. It's from the dealer that used to be in the city I was born in. There are six pages of Ford Mustang...

    Workshop Welder

    I agree on it being adequate. I have the 110V Lincoln Weld Pak 100 (converted to MIG). It's handled everything I've ever needed. Including 1/4" pieces butt welded with beveled edges.

    Edel. Performer RPM heads on '66 289 ci

    I have Edelbrock Performer heads. They were on my 289 and now on my 5.0/302. I used the same ARP studs on both the 289 and 302. The thread pitch is the same and both take 7/16" diameter. Can't see any reason you need new bolts, UNLESS the mounting bosses are thicker on the Edelbrocks than...

    Crown Vic Rear Discs

    Steve, I should have clarified; I was asking for the diameter of the parking brake opening and the machined pad contact surface on the rotor itself. Thanks for the info you did provide. The 2003 rotor is as follows: Distance from the wheel face of the rotor [the "hat"] to the outer...

    Crown Vic Rear Discs

    Anyone have a <2002 CV rotor laying around? I can't get to mine right now. I have 2003 rotor on my screen in CAD and want to compare some dimensions. Can someone measure theirs and post: What is the distance from the outboard wheel mounting face to the outboard pad face? Diamater of...

    Pics of my shortened Aerostar driveshaft

    You don't use the Aerostar rear flange. The Spicer joints I listed earlier in this thread fit the 8" rear and the stock saddle bolts. If I remember correctly, it was just a new replacement part for the 8", 65 Mustang in my case.

    The $25 is for the shaft itself from the junkyard. At least in my case. I think I paid a little more than $125 for shortening, balancing and joints.

    QA1 vs. Edelbrock IAS

    IF, that was directed at me, here you go: http://kastang.tripod.com/shocks.html Not going to do you much good though. The link off that page to Sacramento Mustang shows that they DO NOT sell them anymore. Like, my prior post indicated.

    QA1 vs. Edelbrock IAS

    I've got my front shocks out right now. They're Striders (with an "I"), if that helps the search of anyone looking for them. The settings are "R", "F", and "XF". Guessing that's regular, firm and extra firm.

    Mine are Stryders. I found a hit on Google that Sacramento Mustang sells (or sold) them. $2.49.9 yesterday.
