    5 lug axel from a maverick?

    So you can get a set of axles for $20? Where I am, junkyards get about $100-$150 for a set of used axles. Also, you are getting a 30 year old USED axle. The reason to change to 5 lug is because most of us are increasing the power on our cars, and need a better axle and 5 lug wheels for more...

    5 lug axel from a maverick?

    I paid about $180 for my NEW 5 lug Moser axles, with studs. Is it really worth it to scour junkyards looking for 30 year old used axles, and then trying to make them fit, over spending $200 or so?

    Fender Flaring?

    Another option, is to use one of the old body kits they used to use on the IIs for IMSA and other road racing. I don't know if they are still available new, but I see them around for sale from time to time.

    New dyno results.

    You are correct. The higher the number, the leaner the mix. For NA cars, about 13.0 is optimum for pump gas, 13.5 for race fuel. Power adder cars (blower, turbo, nitrous) are run about 11.8 for pump gas and mid 12s on race fuel. Megan's car goes real rich, even too rich for a power adder car...

    New dyno results.

    Megan, great dyno sheet, all the info I wanted to see... Look at your before and after torque. That's the red line and blue line that start at the top left of the page. See how the blue line (your before) is only higher at the very beginning? That's why you have higher peak torque. The rest...

    New dyno results.

    Megan, do you have the dyno sheet? Did they measure A/F ratio? Was this the same place that dynoed it the first time? If so, did they give you a printout with the before and after on the same graph? I'd like to see how the curves compare to each other. You might have lower peak torque, but more...

    '74 MII 'Vert on eBay...

    It's peanut butter jelly time!!

    maybe buying

    Putting a "big block" into a II will require major modifications to the car. My suggestion would be to build a nice potent stroked small block if you want to retain the factory look of the car. It will be just as fast, and better handling.

    cobra IIs are rare they

    Also, there are a lot more IIs out there that people "call" Cobra's, that aren't. I see cars for sale advertised as Cobra IIs all the time. I guess some people think as long as it's a fastback with a spoiler, it must be a Cobra.

    Hmm, now that's an offer I will definitely consider :D.

    Why Sal???!!!! Why??????!!!

    This motor is wider than the 4.6 DOHC Cobra motor. It fit surprisingly well in the car.

    Why Sal???!!!! Why??????!!!

    Just need to do a little end of year shop cleaning. Honestly, that car was supposed to be done two years ago and I haven't had the time to touch it. The reserve on the car is not crazy, but it's pretty high for an MII, no matter what powers it. I figure if I can get someone to give me what I...

    Cobra center cap

    Anyone have ONE (or even two) of the Cobra center cap inserts? Just need one and hate to place an order through Branda for just one insert.

    Unreal, Like The Dealership (major Duw!!!)

    Well, the cluster gives it away as a 77 or 78. The bumper inserts are the three piece, which was used to about mid 77, and then they changed to the "cut off a roll" insert trim. The silver trim grille was a 77 option. The stereo has the Ford logo on it, which didn't apprear till 77. It's got the...
