    Fuel line is rotted...what to do??

    Something happened to the new T5 and it doesn't sound good!

    I was going down the street when I pushed the clutch in and reved it. I'm going to take a look at it now and see what I can see. When you adjust these clutch cables there is quite a bit if pressure on the clutch pressure plate?? thanks!

    5 speed conversion...best money ever spent!

    I believe the V6 tranny is rated for 265 ft lb of torque. I don't know what my engine is making but if I ever get a carb that works I'm sure it will be pretty close to that. I don't push the car all that hard but when I do I'm sure I'm pushing the limits on the tranny. As far as routing the...

    625 road demon tuning??

    I picked up a 625 road demon card for my 289. The carb is brand new just the guy couldn't tune it so I picked it up for next to nothing. Anyway I installed it on the car today and got it to run but for some reason it idles way too rich and the car will stumble when you go to pull out. Also if...

    Thanks for all the replies!:nice: I was working on it last night and I found a way to make it work. I agree that if the cable was a little longer it would wor a little better.

    mustang rear end conversion

    The one out of the granada should bolt right up. I never did measure the granada rear so I would just to make sure it fits. The advantage to having a "chunk" rear is when you get the 8" rear from the granada and it has 2.79 gears in it you can "Chunk" them when you pick up your 3:55 Posi off of...
