    Computer Program Suggestions.

    I might be too picky for what the original poster is after, but unless the monitor is calibrated, and color spaces are set up correctly, the results are more likely to be very inaccurate than accurate. Consider all the yellows, or all the reds used on cars, 100's. If you want to see a yellow...

    Computer Program Suggestions.

    You'll find stuff that will do the job, but I don't think the accuracy will be there, accurate colors on computers is expensive, complicated and time consuming. For a general look and feel, maybe you'll be fine, but for getting a sense of the real color, it might prove fleeting. My other...

    Computer Program Suggestions.

    If you want to see yellow on a mustang, you can find one on the web, or someone can suggest a simple program like paint shop pro or something you can load a picture and change the colors, but, if you want to see a specific yellow accurately on a computer monitor, it's not easy, or cheap. Is...

    Suspension Wallow Blues

    I'd suggest skipping the rear sway bar and doing something to provide lateral control on the rear like a Watts Linkage (Fay's) or a panhard bar. The Del-A-Lum bushings would probably be a good move also. After solving this problem, you could see if a shock swap or bigger wheels is needed.

    69 Mach 1 – looking for answers about a 390 to 351w conversion:

    Friendlier Driving Several things I would suggest (By the way, tough crowd here) 1) Spend some time on the FE forum and get some feedback from guys that have pushed the mileage on their projects, you'll probably be surprised. 2) For friendlier driving, think about adding a hydraulic clutch...

    Project 67 Coupe is in the thinking phase: Thinking Phase 1, motor

    Mustang HP On the FE forum, there's a guy named Jay Brown that has a 69 Mustang Fastback (I think it's a 69) and one of the editors of Hot Rod has said it's his all time favorite Mustang. He has an FE in it, lots of HP, ended up puffing or stuffing it for a lot more power. Emphasis on a...

    Project 67 Coupe is in the thinking phase: Thinking Phase 1, motor

    Horsepower Like Calponycarsmike says; Ignoring rear wheel horsepower, getting a 482inch FE to over 500 Hp on an engine dyno that is streetable is not unreasonable. Getting it to handle a 250 shot of Nitrous Oxide is still reasonable in terms of some level of engine reliability. Getting it to...

    Project 67 Coupe is in the thinking phase: Thinking Phase 1, motor

    Engine Selection An FE engine "427," does not have to weigh 200lbs more than a small block. You can also stroke the 427 to 482 or so, relatively easily because it's a very common upgrade to these engines. If you get a new aluminum block, it only weighs 100lbs. It will fit and you can get...

    Just how safe can you feasibly get a first generation Mustang to be?

    The Devil is in the Details, as a software engineer you should know that... This test only provokes questions, it answers none. The organization making the test did it as a promo for themselves. Did this car have seats belts, I think they were an option back then on most cars. It's a valid...

    1967 tilt steering

    Tilt Wheel A little off track, but... I have been trying to figure out what is in my '67. I have a very late, June 67, car and the steering column was changed a little in May to meet new federal regulations. 1) To my uderstanding there was no "tilt steering" offered in '67, only "tilt away"...

    M&R Engines on Ebaymotors

    Another Angle? There is no other angle. The truth is you never know how good a vendor is until you have a problem. So far all the guys on this thread that have problems with these guys end up losing unless laywers are called.

    18's really to big on a 65-66? pics inside!

    Surprised at all the positive comments I think they look outa plae and that's saying it nicely. You can take a nice wheel and put it on a nice car. But it does not mean they go together.

    1967 Shock Towers - SOHC Engine

    The fellow who started this thread needs to put an SOHC in a classic mustang. This significantly limits options. the Heidts kit is the only kit I know that will work (Ther may be others) I actually looked for similar builds (DOHC modular in a classic Mustang) and the three I found all used...
