    Help !!!! 65 With No Plug Spark

    Sorry for the delayed response. You will need to look at your wiring diagram to determine exactly where those wires go. There are multiple wires on the + side of my ignition coil. One is the lead for my Tach though and you may not have that. Which harness did you get?

    Acid V. Sand/bead Blast V. Hand Sand

    I have done the acid thing myself and hand sanded the car the second time I was prepping it for paint. Acid is an easy way to remove the paint. We washed the car a bunch after we finished removing everything the acid softened. I don't remember any issues with the acid leaching out and peeling...

    Gear Recommendation

    I have 3.73 in my rear with a Tremec 3550 tranny. I have an 8" rear end. Where I got those gears I do not recall but I got them 12 years or so ago.

    Help !!!! 65 With No Plug Spark

    Howdy! Verify that you are getting power to the coil. Check the ignition circuit. You have power to the starter but the power to the coil is not there for some reason.

    Full Roller Suspension Vs Coil Overs

    I've done neither on my 73. But, I did lower the front a couple inches and same in the rear. The ride is rough but the suspension works well on a auto crossing course. I installed poly bushings all around BTW. I would like to try progressive rate springs and something, anything, to get the play...

    Electrical 73 Mustang Turn Signal Switch Replacment

    Turned out that the new harness was 3 inches shorter than the old one. Those missing 3 inches make a huge difference. There is no way I can connect this new switch to the harness without modification. So, I am going to have to reuse the old wires to allow me to lengthen one side of the harness...

    Electrical 73 Mustang Turn Signal Switch Replacment

    I am finally getting back to work on my 73 mustang. The first thing I decided to repair was the turn signal switch. I thought it would be easy to change it out. Pulled my steering wheel and it's right there 4 screws and it's free. Except, it's got this wiring harness that runs down the column...

    Which wiring harness?

    I did an EZ 21 harness in my 73 back in 04. It was a major challenge but worth it. My original harness was worn out probably due to the heat in West Texas and all the electrical extra's I had on my stang. I had already seen that the stock harness and headlight switches couldn't handle the...

    I Need To Get The Stang Back Together

    I uncovered it this weekend and pulled it out of the garage. Next step is to get a spot cleaned in the garage so I can assymble the engine. Apparently I can't just put it together in the living room (side effect of being married?).

    302 won't stay running

    +1 The electronic ignition will give you more power and a bump in fuel economy. I went with a weird laser system from Crane Cams and it is the bomb. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CIRZLM/?tag=stangnet-20
