    Can I put round gauges in a 64.5?

    Here's the gauge support & Autometer version... I did NOT have to notch the dash. You can simply trim a little off the back of the plastic bezel - it doesn't show when using the Autometer speedo. The gauge support is available thru MDJay, CJPont, and several other places...

    Roush What's the widest tire that fits on a 18x9 rear?

    Nitto & Falken both say 275/35-18 is the widest recommended for a 9" wheel width. If in doubt, check the website for the tire you prefer - they'll give recommended rim sizes for various tire sizes. ;)

    Roush To Good To Be True???

    It's a scam... Some of the tipoffs: * a ridiculous price * a car that was recently listed * "FREE" shipping * an email address that you need to contact before bidding Don't be fooled by the feedback - they stolen someone else's account. Don't believe me? Contact the email address...

    Roush Looking to upgrade my brakes - help

    I know you'll hear other opinions as well, but here's what I did on my '00 281SC... Cobra, Bullitt, Mach 13" Fronts and Cobra, Bullitt, Mach 12" Rears. They gave a small (~5%) discount when purchasing both together, and I came in right at the $800 mark shipped... That includes hi-quality...

    Roush Saleen rim question

    Yes, the stock 18x9's had different front & rear offsets. Saleen fronts have a 25 mm offset. The 18x9 Saleen rears have a 12 mm offset to fill up the wheel well more (closer to the fender lip). (Above info cut & pasted from Marcus95's post) ;)

    Roush Opinions on this car?

    Thought I'd bring this old post back from the grave... The above mentioned car is on Ebay thru the same dealer that had it months ago... With NO bids after 6+ days! That Sunburst Gold & auto must really work against it - even with the other "good options", like brakes & Recaro's. I'm...

    Roush Which Tranny ??????

    To determine which you have look at the build sticker on your drivers side door jam. If you have a letter K under the TR code, then you have a TR-3650 transmission, if not then you have a T45.

    Roush Rear Gear / Lube question(s)

    FWIW, tooth count on mine IS 36 & 11 = 3.27 gears. The gears have Ford numbers on them, and the rear doesn't appear to have been tampered with... Saleen either "ooops'd" and slid this one thru, or somebody swapped back to 3.27's, using all Ford parts. If they went to all that trouble, they...

    Roush Rear Gear / Lube question(s)

    Started on the brake upgrade last night. Only had an hour, so I just got the car on stands, wheels off, and drained the rearend. I'm doing the Mach I 13" F & 12" R setup with plain black calipers and plain rotors - want it to "look stock", but stop better and fill the wheels a little more. ;)...

    Will a pop open gas cap fit a 66 model

    70 cap works perfect - you can use the insert of your choice in the center. Here's the 70 cap with a 67/68 Shelby insert. The 71-73 cap is a little larger, and requires some minor clearancing on some cars...

    :lol: BTW, in continuing with Ford's "retro theme" on the Mustang, have you seen the new 09 Mustang prototype? I guess they're bringing the Mach I back... :p
