    Cooling system Gurus please step inside

    I had to use a stant pressure releave cap the one with the red latch on my griffin and that seemed to seal better then the other caps. I had this problem years ago and the neck was too deep for a stock cap when you put it on it just turns in with no pressure against it. I told people about it...

    Could it be?

    If the under hood harness was removed that will affect the temp, oil, not sure about the volts I dont remember. The fuel gauge should work if I remember. I had to cut the plug end off the under hood harness and find out which wire goes to the gauges and hook them up seperately for a clean look.

    Ok im putting together a cheap 302

    On the 351W I think the head bolts are bigger then the 5.0 302. Just make sure you check piston to valve clearance. The 351W is wider and taller then the 302 but they are both the same length if I remember. You should see on line if you can find how much them 351 heads flow compared to the...

    Need advice oil on spark plug #8

    The only way is if you dropped the K member but you have to support the motor from the top so there is no point in doing it because it would take more time to do that then just pull the motor. So I would say no. You were able to do that on alot of your 50s cars just by dropping the oil pan and...

    aftermarket oil pans

    The pan I bought was a Milodon 30925 with there pickup for the pan. It works with my main girdle. I have manual steering and it clears that, not by much though. Now the only reason I had to use this pan is because of the main girdle. I did run a regular front sump pan for a few years and it...

    t5 issues

    Ok this week end I adjust the pinion down so instead of 7 degrees up its now 3 degrees up not under load car just sitting there. The trans is 4 degrees down not under load.

    t5 issues

    So then my 4 degrees down and 7 degrees up will change to say ten up under load. I thought the numbers have to be within 1 degree to be vibration free. I plan on drag racing this car. So 3 down and 1 or 2 up? And then under load it will maybe go to 4 or more?

    t5 issues

    I am still working on mine. I will get to it this week end maybe. Now I noticed my ssm bars pointed the pinion way up when the fronts were bolted to spring. I do have differant springs in back taller. That was probably throwing it all off.

    78' MUSTANG II, WHEEL & TIRE SIZE ?

    I ran ten holes on my car for 2 years. The set up was 225/60/15 all around I did use 1/4 inch spacer in the front. I think the situation was the rim would rub on the upper A arm in turns. Maybe trimming the stock A arm or a new tubular one would clear I just did the easy thing the shim spacer. I...
