    Engine on stand storage

    Okay so I've searched and found that it is best to spray the engine down with WD40 and put a garbabe bag over it to keep it from rusting. I can buy that but should I tear mine down any farther and clean it up first or leave it as is??? Also it has spent a considerable time in a barn...

    1969 Mach 1 "Blackened"

    Yeah there is a website selling IC's with a picture of my old car on it. Sad thing is, under the caption it says a single turbo kit. My car clearly has twins in the picture and not a single. I was pissed but couldn't get ahold of the guys. I recently sold the car so I don't have a horse in...

    numbers on 351 block ?

    Can you shed a little more light on the "several revisions away from the original part?" Isn't the earlier year model engines the more desired? I'm hoping I lucked up and got a good block. Thanks!

    numbers on 351 block ?

    I just got my 351W ID number off my block. The best I could tell it was C90E 6015 B2 It needs to be cleaned up big time... Anyway, that's a 69 block correct???

    My new 351w Is it worthy ?

    What intake would you suggest if hood clearance wasn't an issue? RPM Performer 351 Air gap? I'm going to be building mine soon so I'm trying to read and learn as much as possible. Sad to say, most of my knowledge has been with rotaries...

    70NE's custom EFI conversion writeup - Part 5

    Does the Megasquirt have logging cababilities? Like recording runs that show what each cell's actual A/F was as you passed it?

    Trying to get 400RWHP out of a carbed 351W : TAKE TWO

    Yeah I'm interested in all this info as well. I've got a 351W longblock that was pulled out of a '69 Cougar sitting in my garage now. I've just been waiting on deciding what direction to go with for a fun weekend streetable car. I don't think I'll have too much of an issue on hood clearance...

    Selling Mustang? Need help please!

    Yeah that's a little scary. I just sold a 94 RX-7 on the internet and I had to deal with way too many scams for my taste. I ended up selling to a guy in Texas. I told him before the car or title left my hands, I had to have confirmed cash in my other hand. Just tell him to send a 2K deposit...

    Coolest blue engine paint?

    I'm thinking black myself. If not black then a dark blue. I was also wondering how powder coating the block would hold up...

    Just wanted to say HI! My new project attached.

    Yeah it does have the ejection seat...lol Okay so last night at work, I looked around all night for pictures so I could start mapping out my plans. The thing is about 2 months ago I decided for the 67-68 model instead of the 65-66 and now I can't figure out why. My wife wants to kill me...

    Will I get decapitated? (seatbelts)

    I'm just going to stick with the lap belt when I finish my car. If it is your time then it's your time. Someone will porbably always say "If only he/she had an air bag in that old car or a better seat belt." Then again just install a roll cage and a harness!

    Just wanted to say HI! My new project attached.

    It's got a 289 with an auto in it. A 351W came with the deal and most of the parts to convert it to a manual trans (except a manual trans). I haven't started un packing it yet so I haven't completely inventoried all the extra stuff. Here's a couple more pics of all the extra junk that came...

    Just wanted to say HI! My new project attached.

    Thanks! I hope it turns out to be a fun project. It will be my first one starting from scratch. I just checked the build sheet and the original color was Q-Brittany Blue.

    Just wanted to say HI! My new project attached.

    No, I believe the build sheet said it was originally blue. I'll have to look at it again to make sure. I'm thinking maybe a dark charcoal for the future color. When my wife and I bought her 2003 Jetta, I really liked the dark charcoal color they had that year. My wife decided on silver...

    Just wanted to say HI! My new project attached.

    The doors were from a coupe parts car. The glass for the fastback doors were in the cab of the truck.

    Just wanted to say HI! My new project attached.

    Hello all! I just recently purchased a '68 Fastback so I wanted to introduce myself and my car. Hopefully over the next decade I can make something out of it. Yeah it's a multi-colored POS at the moment...
