    Max cam lift

    It would really depend on your pistons, if your heads have been milled, etc. Really the only safe way is to use some clay to check clearances. I can say that I am running E7TE's with 1.72's and a cam with corrected specs (due to the higher ratio rockers) that exceed the specs of the cam your...

    going through hard times..have some questions, please help!

    I have a set of the Eagle Alloys Series 028 on my car like 78CobraII posted a link for. 14 x 6.5 all the way around with 245/60/14 on the back and 225/60/14 on the front. No rubs, no fender adjustments even with the stock Ghia wheel well moldings. Pretty cheap, light, and they look allright...

    Opinions needed on removing rust, underside of hood.

    I sandblasted the bottom of mine along with the rest of the engine compartment, but I would advise high caution. The metal on these hoods is thin and will warp. I found out the hard way. :bang: We used all the same equipment, pressure, etc. to strip a 67' fastback and a 66' Chevelle...

    the next Generation II Fanatic

    Thanks for the pics and info Kcobra302!!!! Looks great! Jeffnoel is asking about the strut? Is that another name for the sway bar? I have seen ads for tubular lowers that have the strut mounting point and some that eliminate them. Have also seen some that are made to eliminate the...

    Is this normal?

    I am considering several options including just buying the scoop and either fabing or modifing something to work. As mentioned earlier in the post the stock base would need to be modified due to the motor being offset. Not sure I want to buy a new base just to cut it up. I found kits with...

    the next Generation II Fanatic

    That has to be one of the sharpest II's around! IMO. :nice: What brand of upper and lower tubular's did you use? Are you happy with the end product? Any chance you have any pictures of the suspension?

    Is this normal?

    I saw a shaker for a Torino on e-bay a week or so ago. It is a little different with the front coming to a point. I think this would compliment the II since the shape is the same as the front of the hood and nose. Might be a cheaper option and would probably be one of the only ones on a II...

    Is this normal?

    Thanks for all of the replys, I feel much better now. :) Dmoody, you must be phycic. I have been dreaming out doing the Shaker hood scoop, but a little different than usual. I was thinking about building up a raised area on the hood, kind of like a cowl hood to make more space (Using...

    Is this normal?

    I was looking at cutting a hole in my hood and mounting a scoop to allow more clearance and more fresh air when I noticed that the motor is not centered in my 75'. The center of my motor is a little more than 1" to the passanger side assumming the raised line in the hood and cowl are true...

    Who Had their II before the internet?

    My first car was a 77' hatchback with 302/C4 setup that I purchased used in 1982 for $1500 at age 15. I had to part with it in 1992 when I moved 1,000 miles away and still regret it to this day. It was this web site that I ran across while tring to see if there was any chance of locating my...

    Bypassing heater core

    About the only things I can come up with is that your cooling system capacity would be decreased slightly. I don't know how much more fluid would be held between the heater core and the hoses, but it would be some. The other is the ability to turn on the heat to help cool off your car. Also if...

    What do you think i should get ?

    I am not sure of what has or has not been done to your car. I would recommend headers and dual exhaust as the best bang for the buck although it is alot of work. I would do this or the cam kit suggested previously before an intake and carb. Until your engine can breath and deal with the extra...

    pulling my 302...

    I have alway used one of the bolt holes in the heads where the accessories bolt on. then go across the motor and use one of the similar holes on the back of the other head. This keeps the chain from crushing the valve covers. This also give you lots of room to change the center position on...

    I hate tires (burn out vids)

    If your still pitching it and it works I would be glad to pay shipping to become the trash monster alternative. I used to have one, but my ex-wife obscounded with it.

    intakes

    I had an Edelbrock Performer that I replaced with an RPM Airgap. It is a tight fit for hood clearance, but the performance is better all round. I used an air cleaner that drops the base 1" below the top of the carb. I used a 2 13/16" element in it along with a bolt that is tightened by a flat...

    Stallion?

    Noticed on e-bay a yellow fastback with a badge of some sort on the fender in front of the door. I can't see what it is. What is it? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2471465042&category=6236

    Iacoca's opinion in Mustang Monthly

    So basically what he is saying is that he led Ford through building what was a revolutionary car for it's time, but his "own" project was not worthy of the Mustang name? He's putting himself down. I'll bet he was singing a different tune when it was being designed and built. I seem to recall...
