    Restoration. . . "old school", or "newfangled"??

    Hey, what does a 351 stroke to? is it 390? That's the number that comes to mind, anyway. How much power would I gain with a stroker assuming the rest was the same (just for comparison sake). My goal is to squeeze the max horsepower out of my 351 windsor block (but staying reasonably safe on...

    Restoration. . . "old school", or "newfangled"??

    no eleanor here. When I proposed that idea to my roommate (also a ford guy) a few months ago, I thought he'd kill me just for thinking it. I've come to my senses now. However, it will be hard to put gray and black paint schemes aside because there's no denying they simply make the 'stang look...

    Restoration. . . "old school", or "newfangled"??

    what about a sleeper? stock body and wheels, but a built windsor, nitrous injection, not to mention some nice 12 inch subs hidden behind the rear fold down seat. would some 16 inch torq thrust 2's give it away?

    Restoration. . . "old school", or "newfangled"??

    Ok, I'm starting work on a '70 fastback, and I want to know which way to go with it. It would be real cool to have original grabber blue paint, black interior, 15 inch magnum 500's, and all the other original stock goodies. OR, lowered, ground effects, torq thrust 16's or 17's, loud stereo...

    I need a muscle car sound

    OK, sorry about the flowmaster thing. I just expected something different. I must say, I heard some spin techs on a 70 stang with a 351 cleveland, and WOW! Those are definately for me! What about straight 2.5 inch aluminum pipes to spin techs, then one bend on each side before they exit in...

    I need a muscle car sound

    good point, Buddha. The thing is, I am still in college, so my plans are a bit larger than my pocketbook. What I mean is that I plan on putting some exhaust on now and rebuilding the engine in a coupla years. I just don't want to slap on a muffler that sounds good at idle and starts to...

    I need a muscle car sound

    WOW! if you haven't done it yet, go to spin tech's site and LISTEN to those mufflers. they have sound clips on some cameros, a vette, and some others. I have to say, even a chevy can sound good with those. too rich for my blood tho.

    I need a muscle car sound

    I'm putting exhaust on a 70 fastback. I thought "FLOWMASTER" for a long time, but they kind of whistle and don't do it any justice. I need something throaty, loud, and "muscular" any advice?

    so this is how to install wheel studs........

    tell me more about those tt 2's. I think some 16's would look awesome on my 70. I don't know if I could use the tires, but we might be able to work something out.
