    Driveline vibes.

    Does it occur only in third or in any gear at 45? Does it occur at a specific RPM no matter the speed?

    The guys at classic auto air had to help me with pulleys when I did an install and they got it right. They may be willing to help.

    Ron Morris adjustable motor mounts

    They won't fit w/o modification if you have repo HIPO manifolds. They add a little vibration. I would buy them again if doing another Stang.

    Inexpensive (relatively) radiator options?

    Check out Alumitech Reproductions. Great guy to work with and reasonable prices for a good product. Call him about Ford cause his website only shows Chevy. MY car was running 219 in 90 degree wx now it runs with the thermostat at 180.

    Look into Alumitech Reproductions. I was running a three row copper at 210 put in his unit and stay at 180. The owner is very helpful. His website does not show Ford stuff so call him.

    302 engine knocking

    I had a similar knock that turned out to be a sticking lifter. It eventually took out the cam. Make sure you have a proper valve adjustment first and then check for other problems.

    Noisy Hydraulic Lifters - Any Fix Ideas ?

    I fixed the rocker noise I was chasing by finally doing a proper valve adjustment. I found it very easy to get mixed up on intake and exhaust while rotating the crank.

    Is this put on right?

    looks right to me. It is supposed to limit the steering travel.

    My High Volume oil pump on a fresh re-build runs about 50 psi running and 25-30 at idle. I took out a High Pressure that was 75 psi running and 40 at idle.

    Ultra Eleanor Style wheels??

    I decided to play it safe and ordered American Racing T70Rs in 17X8 4.5 BS for the rear and 17x7 4.0 BS for the front. I wanted to get away from the five spoke but I have 14 in Torg Thrust now and like the way they look. These are polished so there will be some change. Plan on Nitto...

    Ultra Eleanor Style wheels??

    Other wheels like this are 4.5 BS and Dodgestangs chart shows many with 4.75. I have not seen any wheels with that BS and and thinking that those folks are running new style wheels with spacers. There is not much detail. I searched the forums and could not find any specific info on the 4.25 BS...

    New Suspension... RUBS!

    Mustangs Unlimited and I am sure others have poly coil spacers that can help. Have you added any Neg camber to your set up? That will help as well.

    Ultra Eleanor Style wheels??

    Has anybody had any experience with the Ultra wheels company? Their Elanor?Edelbrock/Cobra styled wheels are $130 each less than the Amerian Racing or Vintage 60s that they resemble.

    Ping Ping Ping - Timing Issues, What are you running?

    It is not hard to change the bushing. You do have to take the body off of the dizzy but there are only two screws and no need to remove it . Look at the MSD website for directions before you try it just to get a picture in your head. If you are pinging when you lug the engine only I still...

    Ping Ping Ping - Timing Issues, What are you running?

    Sorry, you did check TDC. I had a similar problem and found that carbon build up was the problem. Several companies make a cleaner for removing the carbon. I am at 10 degrees BTDC, medium springs, I think the blue bushing as well, 60 cc heads with flattops so about 9:1 compression. Have you...

    Ping Ping Ping - Timing Issues, What are you running?

    I have an MSD Pro Billet as well but have not experienced the sticking you are. If the pinging has always been there, make sure you are at top dead center and re-time. If it is new take steps to clean the carbon out of the cylinder heads. What gear / situation are you in when it pings? Engine...
