    Seal-4-Good?!?!?!?!?!?! I'll be the judge of that.....

    I have heard and read that copper gaskets work good. Has anyone tried those, and what is the price? Sorry about the sidetrack post Pakrat, I hope I didn't upset you, seemed like a good post to ask the question in.

    What is considered a good camber gain for a performance street suspension?

    Thanks you guys, I appreciate the help. When the car is sitting, should the static camber be close to 0 degrees and does the camber rate of say 1 degree for 1 inch of movement for the full suspension travel (fully extended to complete compression)? Thanks again.

    What is considered a good camber gain for a performance street suspension?

    I have a 65 coupe and before I went and cut the shock towers out I did the 1" shelby drop with 580 lbs rate springs, stiffer swaybar in front and rear sway bar and it did seem to handle good, (but I didn't like the shock towers so I cut them out before I found out that the MII wasn't much for...

    What is considered a good camber gain for a performance street suspension?

    I have been trying to find this out for a while with not much luck. What is the camber rate gain through the suspension travel (from full extension to full compression) for a performance street suspension range suppose to be? People say the mustang II has bad camber rate but the stock...

    4 valve Cleveland heads not 4 barrel

    It also looks like it adds quite a bit of width the the top of the block, not good for our old shock tower stangs. In their website I did not see any good front pictures or any width dimensions.

    Ok, so the rack&pinions suck... What are we gonna do about it?

    Hakan, you are one awsome fabricator. If I didn't already have my shock tower cut out for the Mustang II conversion, I would be very interested in your kit. Any ideas an estimated price?

    Thanks 70 slantroof, my email is [email protected] . I have a couple more questions, I may of asked but not sure, did you have to notch the outside frame rail for the spring clearance and do they do anything to compensate for the track width distance. The 65 mustang and mustang II are close...

    70 slantroof question about your Mustang II conversion

    I was hoping you had the upper and lower arm lengths because I don't have any of the stock arms any more unfortunately. If you happen to find the measurements and don't mind posting them, I would appreciate it. You said you are using the lower arm also, are you using the strut rod like the...

    70 slantroof question about your Mustang II conversion

    Thanks 70 slantroof. It looked like in the pictures that on one side your using a tubular lower and on the other you are using a stock lower? If you are going to use the stock lower are you using one of the strut rod eliminator kits or are you going to use the strut rod? Very nice work, I...

    70 slantroof question about your Mustang II conversion

    I read a past post you did where you stated that you dropped your upper arm mount down 1/2" for better camber curve. Do you have any pictures of this and could you explain how you developed your plot or discovered the 1/2" drop was better? I am working on a 65 so any help is appreciated. How...
