    rim fitment question 17x9.5 275/40/17

    These are the only pics I have so far, and the wheels aren't mounted yet. I've since gotten the tires mounted and fit them, while it's close, they are going to fit. I'm running BFG Drag Radials and AR Hopsters. I am running the ford explorer kit from Ford Racing, just as a point of reference...

    rim fitment question 17x9.5 275/40/17

    I am running a G-bar and 315/35/17's in the back of my '67. The wheels are 11" wide with 6.5" of backspacing. It's going to require a bit of clearancing on the inner wheel house, but not what I would call a mini-tub. That being said, yes your 275's will fit once you get the right...

    Looking for Wiring Kit Recommendations

    +1 on a Ron Francis kit. Yeah, it's expensive but it's high quality, incredibly well laid out and labeled. Very nice...

    Elec or Mech Speedo?

    Running wires is easier and you don't have to worry about kinking your cable too much or the cable melting on your headers. +1 on the easy calibration. -1 on the extra cost, especially if you have to buy the ~$65 mech to electronic signal converter. All that said I've opted to go...

    Pinion Yoke Swap Question

    It's time to buy a drive shaft and I want to upgrade my 9 inch's pinion yoke to 1350 u-joints. I not too long ago had the gears set up with a solid spacer instead of a crush sleeve. Quesiton is: Can I just remove the old pinion yoke, install the new one, torque to spec and call it good...

    T56 into a 67 Coupe: Surgery required

    Already had the motor mounts so didn't feel like buying different ones. But yeah, if you got adjustable mounts or lowering mounts you probably wouldn't have to cut as much, if at all. I know 69EFIvert just dropped in a T-56 and had lowering mounts and he didn't have to cut the tunnel at all...

    T56 into a 67 Coupe: Surgery required

    Hey everyone, just wanted to post some pics up of the install of a T56 into my '67 Coupe. I am using Lakewood's Muscle mounts on stock frame mounts, and a 302 block. I am getting close to the proper angle, but need a little more clearancing... <center> <img...

    Re-jetting Holley Street Avenger...

    I've always heard that you need to move 3 sizes up or down to make any real change... I just went to my local parts store and they sell individual pairs of jets, so you don't have to buy the massive kit. Hope that helps.

    whats the best and cheapest way to put discs on my rear axle

    Not everyone is using a stock small bearing housing, I was just sharing my use and experience and a way to get relatively inexpensive brand new explorer type brakes.

    whats the best and cheapest way to put discs on my rear axle

    Along the same lines, Ford Racing sells a pretty inexpensive explorer style kit, $379 for the whole deal, also has internal parking brake as well... I bought it and it works great. Ford Racing Performance Parts [M-2300-G*]

    315 Tires - Minimum clearance to lower control arm

    Hey guys, just got most of my TCP G-Bar installed. I'm sizing up the largest rubber I can fit and was curious: What is the minimum clearance you want between a stationary part (lower control arm, spring) and the tire? There shouldn't be much run out as I want to run the BFG T/A Drag Radials in a...

    Guide coat for block sanding question

    I am using a high-quality epoxy primer, but a rattle can of Rustoleum auto primer for my guide coat. Do you all think there will be any adhesion or compatibility problems in the low spots where the Rustoleum doesn't get sanded off? Should I lightly sand off the Rustoleum in the low spots...
