    460 and handling?

    i was wondering if you were going to post on this thread, and if so, just how bad the "flame" would be for even thinking about a 460 :D the ONLY reason i considered this option was because a good opportunity came up for a good motor at a good price. but i talked with a guy at MM last night...

    460 and handling?

    what transmissions would be able to hook up to the 460? could i still use a tremec 5-speed or would i need to switch to a something else? i'd like to stick with a manual? the reason the big block came up is that i might have the chance to get into a nice 460 for a very good price. the...

    460 and handling?

    i think i'm retarded because i'm sure there are many posts on here regarding the use of big blocks in fox body mustangs. but when i put in 460 or big block i can't come up with anything. are any of you guys running big block mustangs for other than drag racing? if so, what is the handling...

    aftermarket k member

    i've read on several posts where guys will take a hammer to their headers to make them fit. i'd REALLY have a hard time doing that to a brand new set of headers. is that what mean by..."it can be done" ??

    stock k-member removal

    if i understand it correctly, you both took the piece apart at or near the k-member. NOT the bolt at the firewall. i'll have to look at it a bit closer to see where all the bolts are on the k-member end. thanks for the input.

    stock k-member removal

    i did a search and went through a 1/2 dozen pages and didn't see anything..... i was taking the stock k-member off this weekend and got all the nuts and bolts out and was lowering it down with the floor jack making sure i had everything removed. all looked great until the driver's side...

    credit card recommendations

    here's my .02 i don't think it will matter what bank backs it up. as long as it's a visa or mastercard. those are the 2 companies that are most widely accepted. go with whatever bank will give you the best rates. make sure you are not late on the payments and you should be good...

    Project DEVIAT1 has commenced

    that makes sense. and by "rotting" do you mean the trim around the windows is rough? if that's what you mean, mine are doing that as well. the black area around each 1/4 window is VERY rough and ugly. guess i could be looking at replacing mine as well :shrug:

    rear suspension removal

    as far as i know everything will need to come out. i'm converting to 5-lug and 4-wheel disc. i'm also going to be adding a panhard bar and torque arm. i'm still not sure about the rest of the suspension though. i'm guessing it will be some form of lowering springs/shocks instead of...

    rear suspension removal

    now that i have the front suspension removed, i'm going to tackle the rear suspension. are there any words of caution/advice on taking it apart? do i need to take special precautions because of the shocks/springs being under pressure. i used a floor jack to hold up the a-arm on the front so...

    can't find a thread???

    i've tried going through several threads and can't find a specific thread/picture. what i'm looking for is a motor that was built, i believe by one of the regulars on here, it's a stroked 351 with a green block and it's sitting on an engine stand. i've looked through PAGES of different...

    Project DEVIAT1 has commenced

    progress looks great!! not having ever done any body/paint work, why does it seem that most of you guys remove the 1/4 windows when you're painting? wouldn't it be easier to maske them off?
