    13" Cobra Brakes. Pics Please

    Pics on website in signature I put up some pictures on the website, in the signature below. They are mounted on the '66, but Cobra brakes are Cobra brakes. Also if you look at the page on swapping in the '67 radiator support, you'll see what they look like from the inside. I think Mustang...

    Ron Morris adjustable motor mounts

    engine and transmission swaps are where they really shine Did you not read the previous posts? :rolleyes: Only if you really want to take the easy way to get everything to line up perfectly, should you get the RMP mounts. If you prefer to struggle, sweat, blead, cry, scream, throw...

    Has anyone made their own Caltracs?

    The reduction in brake-hop is a function of the solid front bushings. It is effective. Most road-racers do not like solid bushings, as spring twist is is affected by too many variables to remain constant, and is in effect a type of "bind".

    Cameo Cowl Panel Mod.

    Yeah, I'd agree that it looks great! Quite a few cars have had this done. Like tx65coupe said you can still have heat and A/C. The only thing this modification eliminates is the fresh air venting. The other advantage is you can get inside while the cowl is cut up, and clean things out...

    Alum Radiator in 67 w/5.0 What's good?

    There is a $200.00 AFCO radiator that fits pretty nice, and works well. You'll need to fab up some brackets. And you may have to "custom fit" a lower hose. Or possibly the stock lower hose from a 5.0 will work. the lower neck is on a bit of an angle compared to a stock 5.0. Here's a URL...

    Alum Radiator in 67 w/5.0 What's good?

    If you aren't concerned with original looks, go cross flow, and as big as you can fit. I installed a Griffin "Musclecar series" '68 big block radiator in the car below (using a '67 radiator support & mounting hardware). Not much room for a fan with the serpentine setup. There is info on this...

    67 Autometer project completed

    I can't remember the number for sure, but I *think* it's this one: Hurst Shifters 5388550 - Hurst Shifter Sticks - Overview - SummitRacing.com It sits about 1" too far forward in the '66 after moving the engine back 5/8". I'm adding an adapter block that will tilt it back slightly, so that...

    Wheel & Brake Kit Combination

    a 17x7 with 4.5" back space would sit 1/2" in on both sides, in comparison to a 17x8 with 4.75". The centerline of the wheel is in the exact same location. You could mount the same 235/45 17 on the 7" and end up with a "fatter" looking side wall that would fill the lip, which might look...

    EFI Fuel Tank Mod

    The tough part to putting a lat model EFI tank in the early Mustangs, is that late model cars the tank sits under the trunk, and is shaped to fit the body, with a side mounted fuel neck. If you are willing to do some modifications to the trunk floor, and change the filler neck, it could be...

    What color to paint intake?

    Pretty big manifold! It would seem to be a question of what components do you want to showcase in your engine compartment? That manifold is really big! So making it stand out with a bright color will really focus the attention away from everything else. I voted for "other" because, I tried...

    question about bellhousing bolt patterns on a 200.

    Since you have the 5 bolt pattern block, here is a suggestion for an easy way to do it. Keep your stock bell housing and clutch. change the input bearing, and add an adapter plate. Modern Driveline can supply the adapter plate. I did this for my '66 when I had the 6 cylinder because I...

    Randall rack install...

    Hi Don, You should not have to "help" your steering return to center. I have not had this issue with Randalls Rack. I am running more caster than you are though. Just under 4* both sides. I did not differentiate for crowned roads. Your caster would be good for stock steering with...

    Vent Window Delete Kit??

    Might try these guys: Nu-Relics Power Windows They have 1/4 window delete kits, but I don't know what they entail. May be worth a call. Good luck,

    serpentine question

    If you keep the OEM serpentine, you will want to run an electric fuel pump, to make the install easy. Also, the OEM serpentine is a pretty deep system. Make sure you have enough room for a good fan and radiator shroud. In the '66 below, I moved the engine back 5/8" and still couldn't fit...

    what springs to lower a '65 6 Cyl 2+2?

    On the car in the signature, I cut the stock springs up front. With a 1" lowering on the UCAs, I ended at 1.5" lower up front. The rear springs are stock and at stock ride height. Not only is a 6 cylinder car lighter, but it has much less unsprung weight, so it doesn't take a lot of...
