    Looks to me just like the standard 4.6L 3V engine I have in my 2006 Mustang GT . . .

    Headlight Halogen Sealed Beam H6024

    Yes, I have it installed on my '70 coupe . . . uber simple to install, and it really improves the intensity of the headlights. The price really is reasonable for what you get . . . if you want to build your own, you definitely can do it cheaper, but this harness is complete, well designed and...

    Car is cursed

    Hey, I'm putting together a similar combo (393 with AFR 185's--just the next size smaller in each category), and was planning on using that cam. I wondered what the idle was like with that cam--is it fairly smooth with the increased cubes, or is it still lumpy? Do you happen to have any...

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

    I count 4 lug holes in that rotor, so unless I miss my guess, that ain't a Crown Victoria rotor--just some stock picture they put up to fool people into thinking that's the actual picture of the rotor.

    Retrofit Tacoma Struts in a Stang

    So, will a stock Fox-body (87-93) or SN95 (94-04) upper strut mount/bearing work in the classic Mustang shock tower? If so, are there any modifications that need to be done? I know the Fox-body mount has 3 bolts while the SN95 mount has 4 . . . so I'm guessing the best candidate is the...

    Need some engine building advice

    You can reach 400 naturally aspirated with a 5.0L easily, and without suffering drivability issues. The Ford Racing 5.0L crate engines put out 340HP, 345 or 390HP, depending on the engine M-6007-X302B uses the "B" cam rated at 345HP, and M-6007-X302E uses the "E" cam, which is rated at...

    Retrofit Tacoma Struts in a Stang

    Actually, I PM'd him and he told me the struts were from a 2003/2004 Cobra (I believe they came stock with those struts those years); of course, struts from '94-'04 all fit the same way. I also am interested in the method he used to attach them to the shock towers, because I'm going to use a...

    JME 69 mustang gauge cluster

    Too Expensive! I do like the looks of the JME gauges, but they are WAAAAAY Overpriced!! I called them up one time last year, and asked them how much they would sell just the bezel for, and they told me "$750"!! They must think that their stuff is made of GOLD or something!! This is PRICE...

    Retrofit Tacoma Struts in a Stang

    Hey, NP, man--Tell you what--if you can find anything anywhere in any of his posts that states he's using Bilstein struts made for a 96 Mustang, I'll buy YOU a beer. :D

    Retrofit Tacoma Struts in a Stang

    Hi, Rick-- Apparently, you haven't read through the thread. I quoted the new plans--you can see it in the posting to which you replied; it included his plans to change from the Tacoma struts to Bilstein struts, so what you quoted is long outdated. To illustrate, I'll post it again for...

    Retrofit Tacoma Struts in a Stang

    You know, I don't see anywhere in here where it states anything about using '96 Mustang Struts. I see '96 Mustang GT BRAKES, but nothing about what struts are being used other than "Bilstein": I also don't see any mention of what application the struts are from in the post with the...

    Retrofit Tacoma Struts in a Stang

    So, you've stated that you could use Bilstein struts with coilovers, but for what application? What vehicle were the struts made for originally?

    Cheapest effective way to. . . .

    I think the lowest priced "kit" is the Steeroids one; you can find them on E-Bay for around $1100. Here is a link to their website with a listing of the kits and prices: SpeedDirect.com - Mustang 67-70 I personally am going with an AJE tubular K-member that includes lower control arms...

    Caltrac's or Traction Master?

    Hi, All-- Last year over the summer, I "resto-modified" my '70 Mustang coupe, installed a '98 Explorer Roller engine with a carb, XE258HR cam, a set of AFR 165 heads and a set of Patriot "Clipster" shorty headers. For the trans, I installed the 4R70W from that truck with a custom-made...

    Front suspension idea

    Ball Joint Taper So, is the taper on the Classic Mustang balljoint the same as the Pinto's? Surely SOMEBODY knows this . . .

    Front suspension idea

    AJE K-Member Well, you could always ask them, but I'm not sure why you would want to keep the stock spindles (the lower balljoint on the control arms is a stock Fox-body balljoint). It's my understanding that front steer is superior to rear steer, but I'm not clear as to why that is (maybe...

    Front suspension idea

    I'm going for it! OK, so I contacted AJE Racing, and found that they would sell the K-member, the lower control arms (with ball joints) and the rack kit separately from the full kit. They priced it to me for $1278!! That's an AMAZING price! That's less than just about any rack conversion...
