    new with custom suspension

    I agree, this is why I am trying to get as many individuals as possible to buy at once. At least then he'll get some level of return on his time investment. Honestly, the IP game is a b***h, patents cost a fortune and can be "worked around," copyright is, in this case, useless, and going...

    new with custom suspension

    You know, I don't think it is unreasonable for him to ask a little for his IP. After all, what he has done here is impressive and he should be compensated for his expertise. However, for the purposes of liability, maybe all funds should be 'donated' to him. Plans to be used at our own risk...

    65-66 CUSTOM MADE FRONT COILOVER SETUP IN PROGRESS

    I've looked at your blog and every post I can find, I'm very interested in your design. A friend of mine, fabricator, just got a tig welder. I have a shock tower from a 70 cougar for a mock up and he has agreed to help me out. If you could get a little more into the nitty gritty, I'd be...

    Intake heater hose fitting size

    What about the later model 5.0 metal tube setups? I've got one of these, just don't wanna chance the o-ring inside of it. Anyway, they don't seem to have any sort of restriction.

    Intake heater hose fitting size

    Heater elbow 11/16 for the elbow deal, but my performer rpm intake required a bushing as well. Water in elbow, 64 - 73 289 Water In Elbow Silve Mustang The bushing is probably 13/16 or 7/8, not sure, let me know how to measure and I'll confirm. My question is, can I ditch the elbow...

    Cheap Rack-in-pinion conversion

    I imagine, by the time I have a second project car, and am willing to build a cradle from 3/8 steel, machine a center link, build the offset block, and so on... modifying an R&p housing won't be too much more of a stretch. Then again, by that time, 4 - 5 years, I imagine there will be a...

    Cheap Rack-in-pinion conversion

    I'm not pulling any sharp u turns anymore, that's for sure.... so the loss in turning radius is slightly annoying, but not crippling. I just have to plan for parking a little better. It's just not a perfect world :shrug:

    Cheap Rack-in-pinion conversion

    I've got the Randall's rack, aside from the frame, centerlink, and the block that holds the centerlink, it looks almost exactly the same as the j car rack. I have a bad bellows boot, lists on rockauto for ~$28, looks exactly the same. Hell, I could probably do a little homework and put a new...

    Hydrualic Clutch kit

    There's been a lot of talk around about the demise of JMC. Looks like another firm has entered the vacuum for a pre packaged product. Ford Clutch Actuator | Linkage Kits (Hydraulic and Cable)(Cobra Kit Car, Mustang, Cougar, Falcon, Comet) Not sure if anyone has noticed this.

    options for engine bay paint/coatings

    I used POR-15 and the Chassis coat, stuff is way too thick. Close inspection does show runs, but more than 3 feet away looks solid. Only painted half of the bay, need my car back. Gives a nice idea of the difference though. 3rd pic down, Don's 68 Cougar: t -5 pedals and linkage

    What is too wide for a 14 inch tire?

    14 inch tires I don't know what tires you are running now, considering 235 60 14, probably the BFG's or coopers. The BFG's while nice looking, are really an old, sad pathetic tire. They were designed at least 25 years ago, have an S speed rating, are loud, and aren't worth a damn in the rain or...
