    Dual Quad Carb Tuning

    I've got a dual quad carb setup on my mustang. It is two holley carbs (390) on a high rise manifold. I've had both carbs rebuilt by a guy that knows his stuff. Before I take the car back to him, thought I was get opinions from this site. When I get on the gas pretty hard, I have a severe...

    Very soft pedal after frong disc brake swap

    Two weeks ago, I used the swap kit from discbrakeswap.com. Everything went smooth, and would recommend. However, I have a very soft pedal ... goes all the way to the floor before I stop. THe pedal does not pump up ... so no air in the lines. Everything is hooked up correctly and I bench...

    to all the Vets out there, Thanks you for your service and have a nice veterans day

    I love this passage... WHAT IS A VET Some veterans bear visible signs of their service: a missing limb, a jagged scar, a certain look in the eye. Others may carry the evidence inside them: a pin holding a bone together, a piece of shrapnel in the leg - or perhaps another sort of inner...

    C4 Transmission -- I think I screwed the pouch

    So we're talking about going away from the C4 to a different transmission. Or is there an "add-on" that gives the C4 an overdrive? If a different transmission, which one? Thanks

    C4 Transmission -- I think I screwed the pouch

    I think it was leaking at one of the hose connections (to run the fluid to cool it). I didn't get that far :) AOD -- you are speaking greek to me. What is entailed on making that conversion? I'm not worried about the drive shaft or anything, but not sure what you are talking about. Thanks,

    C4 Transmission -- I think I screwed the pouch

    I have a 66 Mustang with a 302, 2.8 open gears and a C4 Transmisison. I had/have what I thought is a small leak of tranny fluid. I drove the car about 75 miles and it did fine. When I got home, I checked the fluid -- and it was bone dry. I filled it back up, but couldn't go for a drive until...

    Dual Quad Intake Need help with Adjustments

    Yes, he had all the specs. He called Holley to get their opinions as well. Everyone thought this would be a good application for my car. I don't know what progressive throttle linkage is. I'm sure I don't have it though. I'm attaching a picture of the linkage (well before I cleaned...

    Thanks guys -- Sorry, I thought I posted that I have a 66 mustang, obviously didn't. The shorter driveshaft is exactly the type of thing I wanted to know. To upgrade to disc fronts -- I'd need the front kit, but also a new MC and a booster, correct? Thank you for the response. I'm...
