    Just put an AEM Air / Fuel guage in my 65

    Yeah, it is a wide band. It literally took 15 minutes to install. I had my friend do the welding for the o2 sensor. I just contacted Paxton regarding the SC, since I am set on that over Nitrous. I also contacted Beau. I am trying to find out how safe it is to run 6 - 7 PSI on 10.5...

    Supercharger or Nitrous?

    How good are hipo heads Iam buying a set today for $100 bucks

    Save your money for aluminum heads if you can afford them. 351W heads or GT 40 heads would be good if you are on a budget.

    Just put an AEM Air / Fuel guage in my 65

    Beau from Mental Addiction Motorsports suggested it to me. I am either going to run Nitrous (150 to 200 shot) or put a 6 psi supercharger on (10.8 to 1 compression). I needed a way to get the car set up so it is safe to run, don't want to be too lean. It is a really neat install, very easy...

    My New Project Idea

    No doubt that my 65 is WAY impractical. It sucks up gas, it doesn't handle well compared to modern cars, and it is not as fast as a 5.0 could be for the money that I put it. That being said, I love it. It is faster then 99 percent of cars on the road. I just want a 5.0 to be able to beat 99%...

    Stereo sound with a loud exhaust - you really don't need much

    I was worried about not being able to hear my stereo over the loud Dynomax dual exhaust running out the back. I have a lot of power in my 65, and it is fairly loud. Fear not. All you really need is a good deck and a nice pair of 6x9s and you are good to go. I have a cheap $100 JVC deck...

    My New Project Idea

    I just finished my 65 coupe and I absolutely love it. It is so cool. I am going to start on a new project Mustang when I get out of the Air Force in a little less than a year. I AM KEEPING THE 65 FOREVER, OR UNTIL I FIND A CHERRY FASTBACK TO TRANSFER ALL MY STUFF INTO :shrug: It is going...

    Ok, so the rack&pinions suck... What are we gonna do about it?

    If you don't figure out the R&P then you guys need to hit the gym and muscle up with a steering box :nice: . Put a Flaming River Manual Box (16 - 1) in your car. I have one in the 65 coupe. It is awesome at speed and on the highway. I wouldn't suggest the average female driver to put in a...

    EARLY MUSTANGS - What fits and works in my car

    I recently completed the racecoupe (I will get pics when my friend 89greyLX helps me put them on here. This car is bad ass. It is very very fast. I love it and I am glad that I stuck it out over 3 1/2 years. It gets looks everywhere it goes. Here is what fits on a 65 Mustang, by my...

    Export brace options...

    I personally like the original black export brace and black monte carlo bar. Much cheaper and they look like they belong in the engine bay of a vintage Mustang. (lord knows that I have wasted a bunch of money on stuff I don't need for my car) I doubt that any of the other stuff is any...

    351W Stroker

    Early 65 and 66 People.... Remember, you can't get the HP you want with a 351W and your stock hood. You WILL have to use a dual plane intake, you can't use a Victor Jr. You will also need swap headers. Full length ones to get your power you want. I think Hooker makes super comp swap...

    351W Stroker

    You can get more power than you ever need out of a 393. Use the money you will save on a 427 for some good heads. You can easily get 550 HP from a 393 that is totally streetable.

    Would you rather see a '67 restomoded into a Shelby or an Eleanor?

    Elanor. Restomodding = Elanor Cloning = Shelby GT 500 If you do an Elanor, you can get away with a wild 351W stroker and it will be cool. If you do a Shelby, don't just put whatever engine you want in it. It has to be done right or it just looks stupid. i.e. 428 if you have one of...

    AUTOMETER GUAGES IN 65 or 66 bezel...My quick write up!!!!

    Yeah, I thought the JME bezel would be about the much. I would rather waste my money on a Fuel Safe Fuel Cell (which I did). I didn't try to get out the cheap way, though. I could have put the stock guages in for free. I just like the way this looks. Here is a picture, not my car...

    AUTOMETER GUAGES IN 65 or 66 bezel...My quick write up!!!!

    It is not quite that cheap. JME guage bezel is $399 WITHOUT GUAGES Dakota Digital Guages are, well, digital. That doesn't jive with my interior. The only other reasonable guage cluster I have seen was about what I paid, but I didn't like the way it looked. The autometer guages I...

    AUTOMETER GUAGES IN 65 or 66 bezel...My quick write up!!!!

    I don't know. What you do is... 1. Have the bezel measured with an instrument at an autoparts store. (not sure of the name, but it can be measured to the .xxx of an inch) 2. Figure out how much space you have in the guage bezel to fit the guage in. For instance, I had a 1.95 inch...
