    Carb Genius needed

    I think the power valve is busted because I backfired three or four times. The engine acts likes its starving for air or fuel, can't tell which. I pulled the spark plugs and they were really black, hence I think the powervalve is broke. But when I run the car down the road it's like it has no...

    Carb Help/suggestions needed

    Ok, I've got my motor done and back in the car with my old carb, Holley 600, and it runs like crap. I'm trying to find the best carb for my setup. Here's what's been done to the motor: Compression is now about 9.5 to 1 (maybe less) World Windsor Jr heads (ported, polished, flowbenched) Weiand...

    C4 to T5 Question

    Just thought I would post what I found out on this in case it would help someone else. I had a set of connectors which came from my tranny and hooked up into my Neutral safety switch and I knew one was the NSS and the other was the reverse lights. One connector was red'ish and the other was...

    T5 Speedo Gear

    Ok I am just about finished with my C4 to T5 swap. But I've got a question and didn't find the answer when I searched. So I thought I would ask for help. I have no idea what my rear end gears are but I'm assuming they are stock for a 66 fastback with a C4 (has a Brown/dark red speedo gear)...

    HEADERS

    I just put on a set of patriot headers with no problems. Maybe I got lucky? Wish I would have known about the previous problems everyone else had. Glad mine worked out ok. I got them from CJ Pony Parts if that matters. Good luck with your choice!

    8.8 fitment in 66?

    Any one know if an 8.8 rearend fits into a 66 Fastback without any modification? I'm thinking that it will have to be narrowed and I have no idea how much that would cost. Going 8.8 maybe a cheaper solution that tracking down a 9", what do you guy/gals think?

    C4 to T5 Question

    radiators

    Wow, lots of different answers. I think some of this has to do with no one Mustang is the same as the next. There can be many different causes for your motor over heating that have nothing to do with the radiator. For instance, I've heard that if you over bore your block, making the walls too...

    Sway bar clearance

    I had the same problem with it and because my car is lowered I found that the car was actually sitting on the new sway bar when I put the car down. However, I found a really easy fix for my situation which should work for everyone. Use a shorter bolt on you lower A arm and take out the spacer...

    Broken rocker stud...

    Sorry to hear about your loss. I had a similar situation myself. If it were me I would pull the heads and have a machine shop put in 7/16 studs and ensure they're straight. I certainly wouldn't be doing any machine work to your heads while their on my block. Call me chicken but I don't like...

    JMC hydraulic clutch kit

    I've searched but haven't found an answer. I'm doing a C4 to T5 conversion and while installing my clutch pedal assembly I was getting ready to install the clutch spring onto the pedals (real PITA) and thought I wonder if I'm installing this thing only to remove it later? When I install the...
