    Okay team, this is going to be along one like the good ole days. To give the business full credit, they worked REALLY HARD to earn this novel I'm about to share with the team. If you want to blow through SEVERAL thousand dollars getting some minor work done, I've got the place for you. The...

    Ready to be hit in Sarasota...You know guys Im ready to move. Evbery year gets worse

    Hey, praying for you. Lisa and I lived 5 years in Sarasota, and it was paradise. We moved about 10 years ago. Her parents are still there in the Hammocks. They're hunkered down. On the bright side, their house built like a tank, and they're in a high priority area for power restoration. I...

    '65 Tremec 5 speed shifter ideas?

    I've got a TKO 5 speed in my '65, and the shifter feels pretty sloppy. What would you guys recommend as a replacement?

    Wheels / Tires for 1965

    Okay, I've had Cragar S/S's since 1986, and I figure it's time for at least a minor change. I'd still like something pretty and chrome, classic-ish if you will. I like the Torque Thrust line from American. They're cool, but I'm curious if there's something else out there that's good but...

    Tremec and the 65 Mustang

    Okay, long time before an update, but here goes . . . The transmission works great . . . no problems. It's REALLY WEIRD having a 5th gear in my girl. I got on the interstate, cruised up to 3k RPMs and relaxed . . . and then I remembered I have another gear. Wow . . . dropped to 1,800 and...

    Sticky: I6 to V8 conversion

    If we're just talking "light" and smooth, what about a 302, aluminum heads, and a really nice, programmable aftermarket EFI? Put a REALLY conservative, efficient cam in it, a nice TKO transmission, and some 3:1 rear end gears? Add an aluminum driveshaft and some intelligent but efficient...

    Sticky: I6 to V8 conversion

    Okay, there are JUST OPINIONS, okay? I'm not an expert on the "weight of things" per se. 1. Don't laugh, but the original I6 setup, all things considered, could be the way to go. It's got zero electronics, nothing "extra", and an old school I6 will run and run and run. If you REALLY want to...

    15x7 wheels with aftermarket disc brakes

    That sounds like what I'm running. In all honesty, I'm looking at going to a 16" wheel soon. I'm just not finding a good selection of tires in 15" sizes that fit my current wheels. I just don't see a lot of wheels out there that jump out at me.

    289 needs more power!

    Aiden, WELCOME TO THE FAMILY!!!! Love the car! Here's my 10 cents (my 2 cents are free). I started out with a 289 in my 1965 (Peg). I did all the go fast goodies stuff (intake, carb, cam, exhaust, MSD, etc . . .). It was a lot of fun building that little motor up over 18 months. To get me...

    Tremec and the 65 Mustang

    Thanks for the great response. I've found TKO's on sale online new for $2,600 . . . so I figure another $200 to $500 for shipping. I found a "TKO Kit" for a vintage Mustang, and it was about $4,000, and got excited. The gigantic "but" here is that's $4,000 for an installation kit, but there's...

    Tremec and the 65 Mustang

    Okay, I need your help here, guys. I'm getting some work done on my '65. Texas has a friggin' inspection, and I'm getting a bunch of little stuff done. I'm at a reputable "Restoration/Repair" place, and they were doing some impressive things when I was in there. I'm comfortable with their...

    Advise on hood scoops 65 Mustang

    Not going to lie . . . I've never noticed that! LOL! I originally got the hood because I put a (nother) 351W in, but with the big(ger) air filter, it wouldn't fit under the normal hood . . . shown below :) : There's a 351W under that hood, and the little Shelby scoop is for looks, only...

    Advise on hood scoops 65 Mustang

    It's not a scoop, but I have a Maier cowl hood, and I really like it. The thing went right on, and I'm on my second paint job (probably ready for #3), soon. One from 2001 (hood is 6 years old here): One recent: BTW,, the kid in the picture is now driving Lisa GT's mustang in college...
