    Sub Frame Connectors

    i went with maier racing round tube sub-frames on my 65 convert AFTER driving the car w/o them for 500 miles. With 4 mounting points, including two on front and rear frame rails, it has made a HUGE difference. I installed the same system on my 70 mach. not sure i'll realize as much of an...

    70 spindle will it fit?

    i am going with a new randalls rack, which needs outer ties anyway. Then going with TCP coilovers, the 69 spidles look like they should work just fine plus i'll save a ton. The willwoods are around 1500! mike

    70 spindle will it fit?

    i do have the original 70 disk spindles. Was thinking i could save a little cash and go with late model brakes....assuming they are as good as the willwood bolt on for disk spindles. Probably stupid to go this way over a few hundred bucks on a 30K restomod?

    2005+ mustang steve brakes on a 69 stang

    i am thinking of the same swap on my 70 mach 1 with fact disk spindles. Not sure if later model brakes are as good as the willwood/baer/ssbc aftermarket brakes. Seems like the late model caliper swap is much cheaper....but it are they better brakes? Mike

    351W transplant help needed

    i am in the process of doing the same with a 94 bronco 351 efi. After doing a little research i decided to trash the speed density efi in favor of more modern mass air flow. So had to get new intake, harness, computer, etc. Tossed all the smog junk as well. In the end i took it down to a bare...

    351W efi intake choices for hood clearance

    i just mocked up my 351w with performer intake and looks like i need to loose around and inch in heigth. Looks like shaving the lower intake and using lowering mounts will do the trick. How does the lowering mounts affect header choice and power rack space? Anyone lowered the engine 1 inch and...

    motor mounts

    OK so if i get the mounts that lower the engine, does that affect the trans mount? will headers and the power rack still have room? My efi intake is about 1 inch too tall so i need to either mill that much off the top of intake or lower the engine, or both. MIke

    Axle power rating

    I figured the traction lock woudl be fine. Looking at the original axles, i have some surface rust on them. I am betting installing new bearings will be tough over the slightly enlarged axle due to the surface rust. Might try removing some of the rust first to see if bearing will fit. Car is...

    convertible subframe connectors

    i installed maier racing subs in my 65 convertible after i completed the resto. Made a huge difference. My headers hang down the same amount at the sub frames...so clearance was not compromised. Well worth the time to install. Mike
