    EFI conversion help!!!

    Blue is 24 lb injectors.. what kind of motor are you running it on? Ill bet my 331 is over 400HP at the flywheel and is perfectly happy with 24 lbs.. I dont run any LP/HP pump setup or an accumulator, just an external 155lph pump in an oem ford mount, never a hiccup from it. Heres a pic

    Which gauge panels to go with.

    Ive got #3, havent installed it yet. Its a pretty simple piece but will look great with gauges.. Keep in mind a set of autometer gauges to fill that panel is going to be between $400 and $500. You can do it with cheap gauges, but IMO then it looks cheap too.

    The SN65 project car

    For the convertable project, a retractable fastback hardtop would be cool. You could also use a 2005 mustang and not have to lengthen the wheelbase. I dont want to be nosey but what kind of $$$ do you figure you'll have into this project when its done?

    EFI conversion help!!!

    Im curious, why bother with something like mega squirt unless youve got a wild motor? The Ford EEC works fantastic, It was a trouble free bolt on and go setup for me on a pretty hard running alum head 331. No dicking with fuel and timing maps.. just install and drive.

    The SN65 project car

    If its titled as an 03 is it going to a vin tag on the dash, 5 mph bumpers and all that other legal stuff? I say title it as a 65, it makes life much simpler. Regarding the hoses and fittings, how about using aeroquip black socketless hoses and black or plain aluminum hose ends.. would look...

    Finished prototype Mustang disc brake spindles

    Youre right he's not dumping on tech in this thread, Im generalizing based on past reading. Playing devils advocate is one thing but twisting someones words and intent is different. I dont dispute for 1 moment historics intent is good, how he sometimes presents it is where I have an issue.

    Finished prototype Mustang disc brake spindles

    HUH? Are you mental or just fond of stirring the pot? A guy posts about his pet project and now he's selling on the forums? Ive been reading your posts for a long time and although Ill admit its obvious you like to go fast and do a good job of it according to your listed achievements, its also...

    What a way to twist someones words, good thing its in print for the world to see. I dont see any indication in that thread of him feeling forged is the way to go.

    Raped by an ebayer

    I ALWAYS get a shipping quote before buying an ebay item, Ive been in your shoes. With that said $23 isnt that bad, but could be a bit cheaper. For reference a box sized for 4 shocks weighing nothing costs about $7-8 to send UPS. Just sent one last week, had a couple big decals and weighed under...

    1320, people arent putting on tires that are any wider or taller than theyve been using for the previous 40 years, sure the wheels might be a larger diameter, but the OVERALL diameter and width of the wheel/ combos being used today isnt much different than running a 14" 60 or even some 70...

    Sport seats

    Im really looking hard for a more modern seat, problem is I have red pony interior and want something that doesnt look totally out of place. So for the $1500 pony covered flofits( which get poor reviews) and the sport seats are my only options to get a match, Id settle for reasonably close, like...

    another tie rod question

    doesnt the c6 designate 1966? I had the exact same problem, bought baer trackers for my 65 coupe and the drivers side tie rod was loose and the passnegers side was too tight. Turned out they were from a 65 falcon.

    Thinking of putting cats on my 67 Coupe...

    why not just calibrate the carb correctly? If you cant do it Im sure you can find somebody who can. Adding cats for the sole purpose of burning off hydrocarbons from a mixture so rich that your clothes smell is asking for red hot cats with a short life at minimum, I could see them getting hot...

    Not intending to be negative here but as long as were playing devils advocate Id like to add if anything under there breaks at speed its going to be ugly, how come no one is concerned about cheap chineese control arms and spring perches etc? Or the trend of trusting aluminum wheel spacers with...
