    Looking for some parts.

    I hope it's ok to post this here, the generic want ads would probably be slim picking being how it's 2.3 related stuff I need, anyways. I need a short upper intake and dipped valve cover reall bad. I can't close my hood with the regular one. I have a very nice 2.3 Turbo valve cover I'd be...

    Help me find this video/audio clip please

    I've been hopelessly searching for this audio clip I'm sure most of you have heard (I think it's also a video clip). It's of a guy making import type exhaust sounds with his mouth. Funny clip. I need to start saving things like this that I run across.

    Hey, I'm looking for a 4cyl radiator for a 78 coupe. I think 75-78's were the same.

    Clutch cable lengths?

    I didn't get around to ordering it yet, finals and christmas shopping, etc. I did notice that PartsAmerica.com (CSK) lists a different cable for the V8 and the I4. I'm hoping to order one by the end of this next week, I have to prepay on orders around here so I can't just do it over the phone.

    Clutch cable lengths?

    Yeah, and the radiator's just sitting there, not mounted yet either. I was just mocking the radiator up when I took that picture.

    I deleted these photos from Photobucket so I edited this post so no red 'x' would appear.

    Clutch cable lengths?

    I have 2 weeks left of my last quarter in college, and an 80% finished 78 Mustang II 2.3 Turbo in the garage. One major thing I'm missing is a clutch cable. I have 2 clutch cables of different lengths, both from Mustang II's w/ 2.3's, that are too short. I have the RAD4 in there for now...

    Wanted: Strut rod plates

    In the process of cleaning the clutter in my garage I accidently tossed my strut rod plates. I thought they came new with new bushings but I just got my energy suspension bushing's today without these plates. Does someone have a set they'd sell me or know of a supplier? We don't get very...

    Upper control arm positioning.

    The driver's side spring install went like clockwork using yesterday's method. In 3 hours we completly installed everything on the drivers side (minus strut bar and sway bar, still waiting for bushings) and everything spindle onward on the passenger's side. Here's a picture of the completed...

    Upper control arm positioning.

    We have one shop around here that specilizes in alignments, it's all they do. I had them do my 90 GT when I replaced the ball joints. They even took the car for a road test to check steering wheel alignment. Their normally 2 weeks booked, so these guy keep buys...oh and they charge $35 for...

    Upper control arm positioning.

    Oddly enough only one of the holes provides for travel. I've removed all loose crud that could be blocking the hold. I have some pictures of the reassembly that I'll put together in a pdf tutorial so someone contemplating this job can see it done. Took me damn near an hour just to get the...

    Upper control arm positioning.

    I'm in the process of replacing the control arms on my 78 Coupe. I just bolted one Upper arm in and noticed that one of the two holes that go through the bushing shaft allow for the control arm to piviot. The rear hole in the frame is rectangular cut instead of square allowing the control arm...

    2-IIs: Free to whomever takes em

    Do you still have the t-topped car? I'm about 500 miles form you in Spokane. I have wanted a t-topped MII for so very long. I have a 78 II Coupe with a 2.3 Turbo...that car sounds like a perfect candidate for another 2.3 Turbo car...I can guarantee you that that car will have a very good...

    Conflicting responces to flushing AC lines...can we clear this up?

    I plan on running mineral spirits through the entire system, replacing all the seals with the green ones...got part numbers from one of the write up's, replace the received/dryer/acumulator, add 8 oz of PAG oil (in various spots), evacuate the system for an hour or so and refill with 134a. I'm...

    Conflicting responces to flushing AC lines...can we clear this up?

    I've been doing research for the past week about reinstalling the factory air conditioning system in my 90 Mustang. The system was barley working when I bought the car and had the remaining R12 removed by a local HVAC shop. I'm older now and REALLY want A/C in my car again. I've noticed two...
