    Ford dosnt make stroker cranks,pistons or rods and the ford crate motors are not built by ford, theyre built by a job shop and marketed as a ford engine. You could build your own for less money and have better heads too. As far as crate engines go there are alot worse deals out there. I cant...

    paint preservation techniques?

    I know everyone has a standard of how they feel their vehicle should look when they drive it, but honestly since youre looking for opinions Id say wait and do it once and do it right. The maaco paint can look fantastic if the prep is good, but to just run it in for a quickie is a waste of money...

    Disc Brake Kits...

    Ive been down the granada path, my car was a freakin death trap with the different geometery that everyone seems to say is the same, or not different enought to make it noticeable. My experiences mirror BobV's granada experince to a tee. If you havent read his write up you should.

    Go with the R134A, R 12 is expensive and gets harder to find as each day passes.

    Prepping to paint PICs(warning)

    Patience when painting my friend, its a rewarding project, I know the sinking feeling of messing up a paint job. Id dare to say a real large share of paint application screw ups wouldnt occur if the painter slowed down a bit and didnt get impatient. Follow the application times to a tee.. I...

    Be Cool Electric Fans

    Although I could care less about fan CFM I do have to add that right or not, Baskin, youre Being a condescending a-hole about this whole thing. As fellow human beings, most of us find it's very easy to make our point without insterting offensive jabs in what could be a simple and informative...

    aligning shelby fiberglass front end?

    Every fiberglass piece for classic mustangs that Ive seen has needed work to fit, very seldom do they bolt up, fit and look right. Some filler and a bunch of sandpaper is probably a good place to start.

    High-wattage headlamps?

    \ That too, in the original confiuration everything is fed off that headlight switch. By using the relays all of the power previously consumed by the headlights is now available for the small stuff that it should have only fed in the first place. With 40 yr old wiring, switching to relays for...

    High-wattage headlamps?

    I agree for its simplicity a relay setup is a MUST, a new switch isnt good enough.. Its rewards are twofold. By removing the headlight load from the switch you not only have brighter headlights but the extra amperage thru the switch will brighten those horribly dim tail lights to a modern level...

    Efi Conversion!!!

    Hack is right, Im glad that was brought up. If youre using EFI from a 5.0L HO motor, its a sequential fire system and it requires the HO(old351) firing order. Dont fret, you can change some wire locations in the 60 pin connector and straighten that out if you so choose or If youre going to...

    New photos of spindle prototypes

    Im not trying to be troublesome but maybe you dont understand what Im asking. Why cant a knuckle be cast that isnt light duty and can use Late model calipers and rotors and dust sheilds without custom brackets?
