    Nosie from rear end or not ?

    I had a rear wheel bearing that went "Whump, Whump, Whump." It got louder and faster as the cars speed increased... Over time, the sound got louder.

    Bracket for Steering Column

    If the car is a late 67, you can use the 68 column (with the baffles) and bracket. If your not going for period correct, use the 68 column. It's collapsible and safer.

    Gm t-5 applications to Ford

    I've been wanting to throw this out there, is there any reason why, allowing for some modification (input shaft etc.), a t-5 from a camaro wouldn't work. If not, what would need to be changed. The junkyard pirates around here want 600$ for a core with 147,000 miles for a wc Mustang t-5. A...

    How do I straighten my steering wheel?

    I'm seriously considering that, I am a little tired of having to explain how to align the Randall's rack to techs. Even after a detailed explanation, the elbows still end up pointed at the sky rather towards the back of the vehicle as clearance for the crossmember dictates. Currently, I am...

    How do I straighten my steering wheel?

    Yeah, just look for the sign in front of the shop that reads, "Good alignment shop." Seriously, my luck has been about fifty/fifty. It helps if the shop is located near a flat road where they can go over 30 mph. It also helps if the alignment tech isn't a dip***t.

    Mass-Flo EFI

    I agree with Vristang. If you can get the A9l, put together a manifold of your choice. Have the manifold drilled for injector bungs. Buy a Tweecer, raid the junkyard for the rest. You can come out way, way, way ahead. But, you'll have to learn all about fuel injection. You'll need hours and...

    Quick Question

    Man, I bought my car two years ago and it still has no stereo. I had to focus on driveablility, heating and cooling issues, choaded suspension, bad timing chain, so on and so on. A running car is one you can appreciate, a car that plays music but stalls at the stop light, leaks rancid radiator...

    edelbrock perf. 1406 help

    i agree about the fast idle cam and choke. Were I to buy a carb these days, an electric choke would be out of the question. Too many behavioral problems, the fast idle cam seems to engage at wierd times when the temp is low, making cold driving highly irritating. I've had problems with...

    Tilt Steering Column in a 65

    The problem with using a later model --68-70-- gearbox is the sector shaft diameter. The early boxes have a 1" sector shaft while the later boxes use a 1 1/8" sector shaft. The question is, are you going power steering or manual? Using the later model box would require the use of a 1 1/8"...

    engine capacity

    I've had good luck with Jegs too. Especially the 2 day fedex shipping they were running a few months back, maybe still. Consider some new heads, my setup isn't far from what you are building, usually I am left wanting more when behind the wheel. World Windsors seem to be good on a budget...

    Monte Carlo bar clearance

    Get rid of that straight bar and go for the bent one. Sure, the rigidity is, reportedly, not as good, but at least this won't happen to you... http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=649172&highlight=duraspark
