    double flare questions

    I bought an entire stainless line kit for my Mach 1, but wound up throwing every piece away. Not a single end sealed, and I had several flares professionally done. I would stay away from Stainless unless you have someone doing the flares with a lot of experience.

    Demon vs. Quick Fuel??

    I have a 750 Mighty Demon on my Mach, and the thing is impossible. I have been fighting it for a month. I always used Holleys in the past, and never had a problem. Now I "step up" and get the Demon, only to find out it's crap. I took the thing apart to see if there was anything blocked in the...

    I want to drive like a 19-year-old girl

    I have run nothing but solids in every car I have ever built. They run great on the street.

    hoodscoop turn signals

    Just look next to the master cylinder...it should be sitting right there. Green/white wires, and blue/white wires.

    The Reenmachine DOHC '67 Shelby Clone Convertible Progress

    The older I get, the less I feel I need under the hood. I started my Mach 1 project when I was in my 20's and now I am well into my 30's and I am left scratching my head at why I spent all that money building a 500 horse engine. Drove the car for the first time today, and it is crazy...

    Headlights Not Working!

    HA HA HA!! I got it. The reason we can't find the ground to the marker lights is because they ground to the bumper. My bumpers are painted, and thus no ground. Snaded a connection point, and they work...what a friggin idiot I am. Thanks you guys for all your help though!!

    Headlights Not Working!

    Ok, I finally just unscrewed the fuse box from the plug that goes into the engine bay. I used my test light, and everything that is happening up front is still happening AT the fuse box itself. Passenger side blinkers work with the lights on or off, but the drivers side blinkers only work...

    Headlights Not Working!

    Would the dash panel plug (the one that goes to the printed board) being unplugged screw anything up? I am using custom guages, and didn't need the plug.

    Headlights Not Working!

    I have the same schematic...thus my frustration. I am about to start tearing open that new wiring harness.

    Headlights Not Working!

    Both the side marker and the valance light. It's interesting that you say the valance lights don't come on with the headlights. The passenger side valance light IS on with the headlight, while the drivers side doesn't come on at all with the headlight switch. This whole thing is messed up...

    Headlights Not Working!

    Ok, I have been out there all day. Grounded the rear light harness, and that did nothing. Found out that the low beam filiment on the drivers headlight is toast, and tha's why I don't have low beam on the drivers side. If anyone has the wiring schematic for the 70 mustangs, can you look and...

    Headlights Not Working!

    I have been looking through my wiring schematic, and I have all grounds in tact. The schematic does not show the path to ground for the lower valance driving lights, nor the side marker lights. It does not appear to be connected to the headlights in any way. I don't have the rear lights...

    Headlights Not Working!

    Bryan- Both grounds are clean and solid. Tim- I have a one wire, self regulating alternator, and I did away with the external reg and wiring. This has me now wondering if I also did away with an inportant ground wire. I have the ground on the rad. support by the horn wires hooked up, but...

    Headlights Not Working!

    Ok update. Turns out the headlight high beam/low beam switch was not plugged in. Now both the lights come on in the high beam position, but only the passenger light comes on in the low position. It is a brand new switch. Another odd thing, the drivers side marker lights do not come on...

    Headlights Not Working!

    Hey all, It's been forever since I posted in here, and I apologize for my dissapearing act. My band has taken over my life, and the mach sat in the garage for the last 8 months or so. Anyway, we had a break in our schedule, and I started working on the car a lot. I had the exhaust...

    Brake Guru's...Need a Bit Of Advice.

    That is a great write up, and would of worked for me EXCEPT...I have a hydraulic clutch. The Clutch master cylinder is right next to my current brake booster, and will not work with a larger diameter booster. Ahhh the life of a custom car builder...ARRRRRg. I am going to take Bryan's...

    Brake Guru's...Need a Bit Of Advice.

    Ok I will try it. Honestly 1/2" may be more than I can get on there. It is THAT tight. But I will try it, and let you know. 69- I haven't actually ran the car with the booster hooked up. I need to try that next, but I just didn't like the feel of the pedal with the car off. It was way to...
