    4-link, 3-link or leaf?

    Bryce, your link doesn't work. Were you able to keep your back seat?

    anybody tried the Total Cost Involved front suspension?

    I've got the TCI torque arm on my 68. It will blow your mind how well it will make your car handle over leafs (and get traction).

    I'm happy with new photos of car

    I couldn't tell you what shade of blue it is. The PO had it painted at Miracle. I think the car is nice, but not THAT nice. The pictures sure surprised me. Sort of like seeing pictures of your ol lady after getting a make-over, while you are still thinking of her cooking breakfast in her...

    I'm happy with new photos of car

    A buddy shot some photos of my car over the weekend and I was surprised how good he made it look. He’s pretty darn good for an armature. The original pictures are 2-3 MB each and came out absolutely stunning. Just thought I would share a couple.

    Headers

    npg3- I love my FPA headers and I like any headers with "ball and socket" over a gasketed flange, BUT are you sure sure you can use these headers with a Arvinode exhaust? Arvinode is a 2" system and my FPA headers have 3" collectors (necked down to 2.5" exhaust system). Going from 3" collector...

    Restoring a Rusted Roof

    Along time ago I had the exact same problem with a 66 coupe. I used a wire wheel in a drill and some navel jelly to get rid of the rust. Then removed the headliner and put fiberglass patches under the areas with holes. Once the fiberglass was fully cured, I bondo'd from the top. You couldn't see...

    Anyone running GT Competition leaf springs from Eaton?

    The Maier springs are great. If you are in the bay area, I can sell you some used ones in great shape. PM me if interested.

    cylinder heads for daily driver - kinda long -sorry

    You may want to send your 289 heads to this guy. http://www.hunterstyle.com/thumper/ He knows what he is doing. I had a stock 94 mustang commuter and didn't want to hassle with CA smog laws. I used some thumper E7s and a ported intake. Seat of the pants improvement was substantial. The...

    Negative Wedge Arms/Shelby (Arning) drop

    The Arning drop is 1", the GW drop is 1-3/8, the negative wedge drop is 1-3/4. The GW arms are shorter than than stock. Don't drill another set of hole in your towers. What is your reasoning for a change? Better camber gain or stonger arms? Or are your stock arms trashed? Track car or...

    Holley VS Edlebrock. 750cfm on street engine.

    +1 for what DHearne said. Don't learn to wrench on an $8k motor. Grow with your skill level. Learn to beat on the car, then learn to fix what you break. And you WILL break stuff.

    Holley VS Edlebrock. 750cfm on street engine.

    68 coupe - Cool. I'm not trying to pick on you. We all start out knowing squwat. What I did want to say though is 1)the the entire car must be built for that kind of hp or you will waste time and money at best or hurt someone at worst. It's amazing how quickly you will crack the body by the...

    Holley VS Edlebrock. 750cfm on street engine.

    Edlebrock carbs do not belong on a performamce motor. Seems like you don't have much experience around hot rods and you are asking a bunch of strangers for opinions. (suspensions, rear ends, efi vs carb, etc) Be careful. You may be getting bad advice as well as good. Try to find someone local...

    Need To Buy a Holley Carb, Any Recommendations?

    I had a Bigs carb on a much milder 331 (custom SFT cam) and the tune was way off. In your shoes, I would talk to Patrick at Pro Systems. Good reputation. Nice guy. Very knowlegable.

    Ignition Box Mounting Location. 65 Mustang

    I mounted my MSD where the windshield washer tank was. Ran the battery wires the same way the voltage regulator wires are run, and tied to the M/C bar for the distributor wires.

    does good traction = $$$$?

    I had the under rider bars and didn't like them in the corners. They did hook well though. Albeit my car doesn't go to the track. I pulled them off and went back to using Maier Racing leafs. I've used them on other cars and tried to cheap out this time with the traction masters. The Maier leafs...

    Truly pathetic question from a newbie

    That car does not stop or handle like newer cars. Give yourself lots of room in traffic. Last week I was driving my buddies 2009 SRT8 Challenger when someone almost rear ended me while I was at a dead stop(they slid into the bushes next to me instead). It made me sick at how close I came to...
