    Subframe connectors?

    My set came with nothing but 2 bars, and the hardware to hook it up - So this is the most directions I've seen so far. I'm going to do some site and web searching, I'm sure I'll find the answers.

    Subframe connectors?

    Getting ready to intstall my Comp engineering sub frames. I'm still in the research phase though - How did you guys install yours? I've been finding some sites that say don't jack the car up, and others that say jack up only the rear. How did you guys do yours? I want to make sure I have...

    Look at all that room in there. I just put my 351 in, and I wish I had some of your extra space. Bay looks awesome though.

    Got the engine in.

    I bought it from a guy in Florida - He rebuilds them and gave me a great deal. I think I paid around $1300 shipped to the door with the high stall. I'll try to dig up his info and PM you with it.

    Header & 351w are not even close

    Headers fit the engine, no clearance. I couldn't tell you what the headers were too. just that they fit the 351w. cheapo stuff here... Probably fox body stuff. 1. Export brace - I agree - Ordered. Anyone offer up any links to some shorty type headers that would work for me and not...

    Header & 351w are not even close

    Just got my engine put in - you can see the thread here. http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=711901 I have two sets of headers that I got on the cheap. The first set I got was some crappy 351w swap headers from ford. The second set was a much better pair from BBK - both headers...

    Got the engine in.

    NOT REALLY THAT SMALL. I'll just let the pictures do the talking. Some nice new brake line work for the new discs. Just need to do some bleeding. I was so happy to get the engine off of it's stand - where it's been for almost 3 years. I decided what a better opportunity to take a pic than...

    C4 to AOD in a 66 Mustang

    I purchased the overprice package for my swap. LOVE IT! That is all I have to say. I ordered everything in one quick stop - The quality of the product was great - and I've heard nothing but great things about the Lokar cables. I will be hopefully dropping my engine and trans in this...

    Some pics of my car

    Yup - the first and last shot were photoshopped. There is no engine in the car at this point so it sits quite high. That will be the stance I am going for when the engine is in though. The hose I'm using is one of those polished flexible hoses. The piece on it is what the hose get's clamped...

    Finished my disk brake swap

    set up was $545 with the Stangnet discount (Not sure how long that was going on for) It was really pretty simple. Bolt off, bolt on. I had a friend who knows cars in and out help me, but overall the directions show you step by step what to do.

    Some pics of my car

    Nice car. Just like the above post - reminds me of my ride.. sort of. I too am building a 68 with a 351w. My engine is still out, but here is pic of mine. My 90degree neck is off a 80's 302 - it is a close fit but still fits. Not to steal your thread or anything.. ;)

    Finished my disk brake swap

    AFter getting the 17's on this bad boy, I knew it needed some disks. Went to diskbrakeswap.com on the suggestion from members of this board. Glad I did! The directions were as clear as day, and even had some funny "remarks" in there as well. Here are some pics. I ended up replacing the...

    68 Coupe Just Finished

    Overall I like the rocker mouldings. However on your car - I'd go without it. Gives your ride an even more aggressive look to it.

    17x9.5 on a 68 PICS

    YEs, I would go with a 6" backspace instead of the 6-3/8" But I'm still very pleased.
