    Mach 1 I dont know if I should get 4:10s

    Go with the 4:10's. I drove mine to Mustang week this year, (3,000 mi. round trip.) and was wishing I'd have put the 4:10 gears in all the way. Especially driving through the mountains. In the Mach, I was downshifting to 4th gear alot. One of the other guys that went also, had those gears in his...

    BEST MUSTANG OF ALL TIME!!?

    Best Mustang? mmmmm...I've had a bunch of 'em, and between the wife and I, we still have 4. But If I could pick one, and money wasn't an object, it would have to be a '67 Shelby GT500 fastback. Only year they came with factory dual quads. To this day I don't believe there has ever been a car...

    Summit Sport seat comfort?

    I'm real happy with mine. I put a set in my '85 GT when they first came out. They have great support and are very comfortable. In fact more comfortable than the stock seats were. The 4 hour trip to the WFC in St. Louis is a piece of cake, even with the 4 point harnesses on. I highly recommend...

    2006 World Ford Challenge. May 18-21, Gateway International Raceway, St. Louis MO

    I'll be there. Been to all of 'em but the first one! It's a great time. Our Mustang club, the "Illinois Valley Stampede" is one of the club sponsors for the WFC this year. Stop by the tent and say hey! I'll probably take the '85 GT, and the wife will have her '01 GT also. :nice:

    Driveshaft safety loop questions

    I believe the NHRA rule book states 12.99 and quicker to require a drive shaft safety loop. They're very easy to install. I have a Lakewood and is bolted to the floor with 4 bolts.

    Best place for body panels???

    I'm in the process of restomodding a '67 coupe. I have to replace both rear quarters, outer wheel houses, and the tail light panel. I've heard that the body panels from some suppliers have a lot to be desired as far as quality, and fit. I've gotten parts from many Mustang parts places in the...

    Mustang + suspension parts......

    Thanks for the help guys. I guess I'll go with the Mustangs Plus parts then. Since I'm going all the way with this restomod project, I'll most likely go with the kit that includes all suspension and steering parts, including front & rear springs, sway bars, and KYB shocks. Also since Shelby...

    Mustang + suspension parts......

    Hey guys, I just picked up a '67 coupe project. I have a Mustang + catalouge that has what looks to be some pretty complete suspension kits under the Grab-A-Trac name. Since I'm planning on replacing all of the parts anyway, I figured the whole kit is the way to go, but I've never seen any of...

    Mach 1 '0 and '04 owners, how many miles per gallon does your Mach 1 get?

    I took mine on the Hot Rod Power Tour this year. Drove from IL. to Wisconsin, then did the long haul from Wisconsin to Florida, then back home to IL. Kept track of the mileage, and averaged between 23 and 24 miles to the gallon for the whole trip. I was very happy with that! I'm not usually one...

    Welds for a Fox

    Hi Fishhawk....Nice to meet ya in Mendota at the cruise! For 275-50-15 drag radials, you'll have to take the quads off. With the Uppers and lowers that you have, that shouldn't be a problem. You can use a 15x8 drag lite with 5.5" of backspacing, but may have to massage the inner fender well just...

    Mach 1 315's

    I have 315-35-17 BFG's on 11" rims with 7" backspacing. The car is stock height, and I dont have any problems at all with clearance or rubbing anywhere. My only concern is that I want to lower the car, but I have a feeling that with a big bump or hard cornering the fender lip would rub the tire...

    Mach 1 Mach 1's w/ aftermarket wheels!!

    Hey wurd2.....Looks like ya got 315's on the back with the car lowered. Have you had any problems with the fenders rubbing the tires when you hit a big bump or corner real hard? My BFG 315's sit under the fender lip, but not inside of it. From the pics, yours look to be about the same. I'd like...

    What size wheels up front on a street car?

    I run Weld 15x7's in the front with 225-60-15's, and 15x8's in the back with 275-50-15 drag radials. The 225-60's work well on the street, and you can have fun in the curves 'n corners. They also aren't overly heavy, so I can still run 'em when I go to the track. Works for me....street/strip...

    wfc hotel boycott

    I agree 100%! We too have been staying at the Comfort Inn in Collinsville the last couple of years. I can understand them wanting to hold it down to a small roar, as I've seen it get a little out of hand in the past. But to resort to the tactics they used to eliminate anyone having a little fun...
