    Moving the Pitman Arm

    Changing steering geometry/design to get around your exhaust is a surefire application for the Darwin Award. You can only install the pitman arm one way since it is keyed. Snap a pic, something is way off or your headers are junk (likely the case if you shopped on price).

    Ford GT motor: $45K for 550hp seems overpriced

    And none of these fantasy builds would be the actual replacement for the factory GT engine if say you had to replace the factory engine in your GT ;)

    TCP Coilover Advisory

    Ring replicates the surface of the stock coil spring top, nice fix... get this in a magazine or two since there are a lot of TCP customers that do not use the Web for this info I'm sure.

    broken bolt help

    You should look at getting it out. Over time it will leak. Where did it snap off at? The head? Any length of it sticking out of the block? Snapping a bolt on the pan is a sure sign you over torqued the thing by quite a bit.

    428 WITH AOD, CAN IT BE DONE?

    Whatever you do, DO NOT buy an AOD from the Transmission Center or whoever markets that AODominator... Nick should be along at some point to tell you why. You can use an AOD behind it with an adapter. I Lentech or similar will handle it fine.

    Question for "Historic" or ......

    Alright, I'm going to put it from my perspective and experience. Forget the R&P if you have budget concerns. Get a new steering box and put that extra money in a good set of brakes designed in the 1990's or 2000+ instead of retrofitting a 1970's setup. The R&P is an easy swap and can be...

    Serpentine conversion: standard or reverse rotation water pump

    Oh, you asked if there were any advantages... none that I am aware of. They simply changed the rotation because that's the way the belt was going.

    AOD/universal question.....bad vibrations

    You changed the transmission and not the universal, why should the universal be the problem now? :shrug:

    Serpentine conversion: standard or reverse rotation water pump

    Depends if you are using a setup with an idler or if you are just using serpentine pulleys in the place of V-Belt pulleys.

    Finally Finished my Factory Five

    Looks like the Backdraft Sterling Gray/Siver combo? Is that where you got the paint idea? Nice. What was your total build cost? Would you go with FFR again now that several worthy TK- alternatives are readliy available?

    Question for "Historic" or ......

    From the standpoint that you are seeking the advice of the wrong person, YES :D

    Question for "Historic" or ......

    Are these concerns you generally face? :rolleyes: and how does aluminum rust? Maybe you are thinking of some "big" 15" Cragars from 1985? :rlaugh:

    2000 4.6l cobra crate engine swap into 65/66 mustangs?
