    anyone in sacramento?

    Can't recommend any rental places down near Land Park, but there is a cruise in every Wednesday night at Red Robin in Folsom. It is put on by the Cappuccino Cruisers. http://www.capcruz.com/home.html My 68 isn't running right now, but it should be in a few weeks.

    The Brake Line Routing Thread

    Bending them yourself is pretty easy, and my local Napa has brake line with fittings in several different lengths. I used a little $10 bender to do my fronts when I did the granada swap.

    Big 67 power steering problem

    So you only replaced the return hose and the bracket? Maybe a piece of debris got into the valve? Are you sure the hoses didn't get switched?

    Safe way to remove harmonic balancer - '67 6 cyl.

    Is this true? Why would having it in park not allow it to turn over? Mine was turning over moderately easy with it in park.

    4/28 Mustangs Plus Show?

    Wow this was a great show. Mustangs Plus has really expanded their location since I was last down there, and the amount of cars was impressive. They had the Restomod shop completely open so you could walk around and check out their work. I think there were ~9 or so stripped down mustangs...

    Safe way to remove harmonic balancer - '67 6 cyl.

    Here's my trick: Remove the pulley, then reinstall one of the bolts in the balancer. Turn over the engine using a big socket until that bolt is on its "downward" turn, then put a piece of 2x4 between the bolt head and the floor. Now the engine won't turn and the crankshaft bolt will come...

    4/28 Mustangs Plus Show?

    Is anyone going to the Mustangs Plus show this weekend? Mines on jackstands right now, but I'm going to drag a buddy down and check it out. I need some photos of fuel line routing and other engine compartment tricks, so if you see some guy crawling around in there it's just me!

    Note to self: Change out MC. Is there a recommended MC for this application? A regular old 68 disc/drum?

    Quick MC question

    I did this conversion about a year ago and didn't change the MC or the prop valve out. I've only driven it a few times for short distances since it was done, but I didn't see any problems.

    Oil pan/Timing Cover off - Should I replace chain/pump?

    Thanks gang. Looking back I guess it's kind of an obvious answer. <b>66overhaul</b> Yup I'm going to change out the water pump. Thanks for the reminder about the different ones. <b>65fast</b> About the pitted thing - I noticed it was in pretty bad shape when I was cleaning it. Maybe...

    Oil pan/Timing Cover off - Should I replace chain/pump?

    So I am "renovating" a ~20 year old rebuilt 289, and ended up pulling the timing chain cover and oil pan becuase it was pretty much leaking from all over. I measured the deflection in the chain at 1/4", and the shop manual says 1/2" is maximum acceptable. Also it has had low oil pressure at...

    Who gets the Mustang Plus sale magizine in the mail?

    I have it sitting in my recycle bin at home. Why don't you just call them up? As an aside I was hoping this was a "why can't they use spell check" thread.... I keep thinking I should call them up and offer to proofread it for them.
