    New fuel lines and maybe a Fuel Cell

    The safety loop is not going to keep the broken shaft from cutting a fuel line. In performance situations run the braided line inside the car. If it gets cut in there if will be too late for you to worry about fire. Mine ran down the drivers side off the interior. It looked kinda cool...

    Which race mufflers?

    Agree! We also found that a little backpressure provided by race type mufflers actually helps the performance of the small block. Plus, as you found out these things make a ton of noise at high RPM's! HistoricMustang

    HistoricMustang Road Racer Sold!

    Those that have been around StangNet are aware that I owned a full fledged road racer that competed on tracks from Daytona to Watkins Glen. This car provided a lot of insight on what is needed and what is not needed to make the early model perform. Well, the car has been sold to a gentleman...

    HELP! Exhaust too loud!

    I did it and it will solve the problem. Yes, it was the Dynamax 12" race muffler. My street exhaust system also turned down at the rear axle, just as yours. It may be a simple cut and install in your case. HistoricMustang

    Best way to remove floor pan?

    You never want to cut out more than needed, even if it means throwing away half of the new pan. Get the die grinder out and go to work. HistoricMustang

    620's coming unseated

    This is a pain but they are not going anywhere once the car is down. My road racer springs would drop out every time the car when up on jack stands but stayed in place from Daytona to Watkins Glen with no straps, cables or duct tape needed. Get a buddy to hold the springs in place with a...

    Distributor installation

    Yes, get a remote starter button and bump the motor. This can be a real pain sometimes (just as when taking the darn thing out) but hang in there! Put lots of lube on the distributor gear. Never use a tool or hammer to solve this problem. HistoricMustang

    In 2bav8's shelby drop alignment specs...

    For max performance you will also want to add Hoozier Street TD's bias ply tires to help tune with tire pressure. Believe it or not they are DOT rated. In performance situations the radial simply rolls over adding to the push (understeer) associated with the early models. (I will not say...

    HELP! Exhaust too loud!

    Put in a 12" in line Dynamax before the mufflers. They should fit in the driveshaft tunnel with no problem. Does amazing job and does not rob performance. HistoricMustang
