    Mustang Unibody Diagram/Photo

    :shrug: I am considering ( :shock: ) an extensive restoration, including replacing frame rails, floors, plus removal of shock towers and installation of an aftermarket front suspension (R&C, Heidt ?). Aside from advice on how crazy it is, I would like some suggestions: (1) Where can I find a...

    Thanks a lot for the information. My impression is that the GT350's used the Ford toploader. I think I'll shoot for the real thing. Do you think that T-10's were used on 4-speed Mustangs in the '65, '66 era ? Hipobuzz

    4-speed

    Is a Borg-Warner T-10 the same as a "top-loader" ? Which T-10 would adapt to a 289 in a 1966 mustang ?:( :(

    Hi-Po

    Thanks guys, I appreciate the advice. My plan is to build a '66 fastback, white with blue stripes, ten-spokes, under-ride traction bars, rear exhaust, GT350 side stripes. Think I'll skip the front suspension mods but do the engine compartment bracing. As far as the engine goes: solid lifters...

    Hi-Po

    Thanks for the input. I am willing to go whole hog. Can HiPo heads be found? How about heavy bearing caps, dual-point distributer, heavy harmonic balancer, pushrod cam? Buzz

    Hi-Po

    I am planning a full-tilt GT350 clone project. Is it possible to convert a standard 289 into a hi-po? What would be a good source of parts? Thanks, Buzz
