    Just got back from the track (new best).

    Yea, but I bet the motor loved the cold air.:D

    Quick multimeter question

    You know, now that I think about it, there probably should be a slight drain on your battery. If you have an after market stereo in your car, then even when the key is in the off position, your stereo should be drawing a slight load for the flash memory. I'd check the drain with the meter to...

    Lug nut size?

    I know my buddy's are 13/16", but I don't know for sure that they are stock lug nuts.

    Quick multimeter question

    Was that a typo or did the voltage go up???:eek: Depending on how long later was, dropping a tenth of a volt or two wouldn't surprise me. If you want to make sure that you have a perpetual battery drain when the key is off, what you can do is set the meter to amps and disconnect the...

    Need a picture of Bellhousing and clutch EQ bar

    2+2GT is right; your Z bar goes from a bracket on the frame to a pivot stud that screws into the engine block. Here is a picture when I had the stock linkage set up on the 67. DSCF0004-1.jpg picture by PaintballerCA - Photobucket

    Weird vibrations in drive

    It very well could be given that you feel the vibration on the shifter.

    Quick multimeter question

    The internal resistance of a multimeter is very high (mega ohms), so you're drawing very little current. Still, if you left it on there long enough then it would technically drain the battery. How are you using the meter exactly and how long is it being left on for? Are you using it for you...

    OT, but what are you getting your masters in?

    My new heap. Another ugly coupe

    What are you going to do to the body to handle the motor when you track it?

    Oval Air Cleaner Distributor clearance

    The ebay link you posted won't load for me, so I can't see the part. However, I have a 14" round air cleaner, and it barely fits with my wide cap.

    Opinions and Suggestions on transmission

    What kind of budget do we have here? Personally, I would go with a tremec and 3.73/4.11's in a 9".

    Spindle differences?

    The only difference I know of is that using 70 spindles on a 66 will require a different tie-rod end. I have spindles from a 72 on my 67 and I don't notice any bump steer.

    Please Help!! Voltage issues or so I think...

    So by under load, do you mean when you are driving and you try to accelerate? Are you flooring it, or just giving it a little gas? Does this issue happen when you rev the motor in neutral?

    Please Help!! Voltage issues or so I think...

    I want to know more about this. Am I correct in assuming that, with a 1 wire alt, the voltage regulator is not needed? What do you mean by it seems that the voltage regulator is bypassed and taken out? Is the regulator still physically in the car? Have the wires been disconnected from it?

    Can't start Mustang...strange electrical gremlin?

    You can "test" to see if it is the starter relay. First, make sure that the clicking noise you hear is coming from the starter relay itself. If it is, then get a screw driver and jump the battery post on the starter relay with the post next to it (post 1 to post 2). If this gets the starter to...

    289 Engine Redline

    I was told around 6k-6.5k and above. One of my first part time jobs was working in a shop. My boss was building a race motor for SCCA racing for his 67, and brought this point up with me when we were working on his car one day. I agree that the rods giving out is by far a bigger worry. By...

    New to manual drum brakes

    I should point out that it all depends on the find. I got mine off of a 72 coupe that was hit with a molotov cocktail after a "dispute" with his neighbor. :eek: The guy was parting the car out to cut his loss. Just keep your eyes peeled.

    New to manual drum brakes

    If you want to put disks in the front, you can keep an eye open for the spindles and calipers off of a 70-73 mustang. All that is required is changing the tie rod ends, master cylinder, and adding a bias valve. I think I spent around $300 to do everything.
