    66 and a turbo

    The shorties work well, but they will not perform as well as a cast iron trubo manifold. That link with the mustang with the custom intake is a nice car but he did not opt for an intercooler. I wonder what his EGT'S are? Im sure they stay pretty hot. I would not even think about running one...

    How do you remove an 8.8" axle tube?

    I think its like a 12 bolt chevy, you have to grind off that tab fluch and drill it out. The the tubed are pressed into the housing. Im not real for sure on the 8.8 if thats how you do it or not. Try posting it over on the late model forum, those guys would proably know. Why do you got to remove...

    66 and a turbo

    if your going to go with a blow through set up, I think the gale banks pressurised enclosure is about the best on the market.I see alot of people running them on classics. You can get the enclosure in single port or dual port confegurations. What turbos do you plan to use on you car?

    ****attention**** all 4x4'ers..... TIRE CHAINS, pics and description of what to buy!!

    Nice chains but I hate throwing Iron, thats why I use automatic chains. The cost alot but when you use them every day they pay off. Plus you can activate them when you need them on demand.

    Moving your fuel filler

    check your local dot laws first. Would really suck if you did all that work and they wont let you pass vehicle inpsections. Some states do not allow any vehicle with a modified tank fill location to be used for street use unless its a cab and chassie truck. Just something to think about.

    DeVILBISS Gravity Feed HVLP Spray Gun

    I have a regulator and water trap on the compressor itself and a regulator on my gun well. I usually turn the compressor regulator to about 30 psi and then fine tune it on my gun with the gun regulator

    DeVILBISS Gravity Feed HVLP Spray Gun

    Most people use two guns, one for primer and one for finish coats. One reason is that you can never really ever get the gun clean no matter how hard you try. But the bigger reason is most painters dont really take the time to clean primer guns, just a simple wash out with some thinner and they...

    Floor pans and hobby welder

    You can go gas-less but the smallest wire you can get is usually .035. If you go with shielding gas you can get alot smaller and in turn yield less heat. I personally have never bothered to try to use gas on 110-130 amp welder, simply not worth the cost. The flux core will work just fine. Just...

    Pros/Cons of 4/3 link or ladder bars

    For mostly street use and some track use I would go with ladder bars. They are easier to set up, require less tunning and less trail and error. 4 links are great but you have to take the time and allow for minute adjustments time and time agin to get the best performance. You also have the...

    How much did you pay to have your automatic trans rebuilt?

    Find a shop that will let you supply the parts yourself. You can save yourself some serious money by providing all the working parts. The labor it the most costly part of the rebuilt so anything you can do to help bring the time down will save you money. I would not pay more than 450-500 bucks...

    Weber carbs/fuel injection

    Weber also makes fuel injection, that looks identical to its carbs but has injectors inside, with throttle bodies. I have dual weber 44IDF's on my VW and they are awsome. Webers are very good carbs, but very very picky about dirt and climate changes. You also have to keep them in excelent shape...

    Can anyone tell me how to put on a door skin, or give a good website??

    Just buy the tools from the same people you bought the skin from. Almost every mustang restoration company sells them, one tool removes the old skin, one tool crimps it back down. Kinda helps to have two extra hands until you get a few crimps set so the skin does not try to pull out of...

    Reading an oil filter

    The best way to take a sample from the oil filter is a little less gorrila like. No offence dodgestang. But they make a tool and it can be found at almost every parts house and heavy equipment dealer that cuts the top off like a can opener. They can be had for about 15 bucks. Then take a razor...
