    need new dizzy...what to get?

    You are having the same problem as me. I pmed you about it. I think we have too much carb on our motors or they need to be tuned better. My car will start on the first turn and then runs real rich and doesn;t want to idle.

    will my stock '00 GT rims fit on a '68?

    with about a 1 inch adaptor.....it should. The bolt pattern is correct but the backspacing is wrong.

    I thought he was talking about me........I would rather be in debt and drive a safer car, but I would never recommend anyone young get in debt.

    Tires

    It's not that the front end won't handle it, but you can't overstuff narrow wheels with wide tires. It makes for a very sloppy feel that probably isn't the safest thing you can do. I have owned my car since I was 16(now 28). It wasn't until two or three years ago, I could afford to install discs...

    Tires

    If that was the case my 245s would've exploded my front end long ago. Get some new wheels...then some real tires. I would move up to 15s or 16s. The decrease in stopping distances is worth it, not to mention the handling characteristics. Some 15x7s with some 225/60/15s would be a noticeable...

    What is wrong with your Pertronix (stock) distributor? Are you having trouble with it?

    Fat person in the trunk somewhere?

    Get the stock springs with an extra leaf, it will look level. I know from experience.

    EFI or no?

    Skywalker, I am converting my mild 302 to EFI as we speak. Although my post count is low, I have been building Mustangs for 10 years and went to start posting again and my user name and password weren't accepted. I am gathering parts now and the conversion will begin shortly. I plan on posting...

    EFI conversion help!!!

    If anybody has anything used laying around PM me. I am looking for a cheap route to go. BTW I have some 25k mile stock 95 GT heads boxed up in my garage if anyone needs them.

    EFI conversion help!!!

    I am putting my swap list together as we speak. Since I have the Gt40 iron cylinder heads with a GT cam and 1.7 rockers....Should I try to acquire an Explorer intake or will a 89-93 intake work fine?

    Thinking of putting cats on my 67 Coupe...

    BTW Here are a few pics of the car. I am pulling it out this weekend to resume work after my 1 year break from it.

    Thinking of putting cats on my 67 Coupe...

    gas tank was replaced about ten years ago. Had the problem then as well. I just recently replaced the rubber part of the filler neck. I think my problem is tuning though because it is rich everywhere not just in the car. It smells the driveway and garage up! I'm going to tune it as best we can...

    Thinking of putting cats on my 67 Coupe...

    Thanks for all the replies. I may gather up some parts for the swap. I have a 70 pedal and an EFI dist. I used to have a 95 intake but I tossed it. I can probably pick up one cheap on ebay. The 600 will get tuned on this weekend and some dynamat I think will help.

    Thinking of putting cats on my 67 Coupe...

    Does the firewall need to be smoothed? I can't imagine though, that everyone in the 60s drove around smelling like gas fumes. One of my racing buddies is coming over this weekend to help me tune it. If that doesn't work I am going to buy a 500cfm edelbrock or an autolite 480. I still can't...

    Thinking of putting cats on my 67 Coupe...

    I would rather it just went away without me spending the money to do the EFI. I really just want something I can drive with a carb.

    Thinking of putting cats on my 67 Coupe...

    I really think I should switch to EFI because I hate carbs, but I keep getting this smell on my clothes when I drive my car. I am going to try and retune the carb this weekend but I always smell like gas and it pisses me off. Has anyone added cats to their car to clean it up some? Any...
