    another c4 kickdown ?

    Thanks Rapid, but it still doesn't make sense. I'm tranny stupid...I'm just not getting it. Kickdown lever on tranny points toward the ground and is sprung forward. Extra "rod, z-bar, whatever" on pedal points toward tranny at idle. At WOT the pedal rod moves toward engine. If there was...

    another c4 kickdown ?

    Thanks 65, you've got all the info, I guess I just don't have all the parts. I don't have a kickdown rod or kickdown return spring. I guess if it's not too much trouble, a couple pics at the carb and tranny would be great. I've got the gas pedal that has the "extra" bar pointing towards the...

    another c4 kickdown ?

    Hey guys, need some help. '65 289 to a '68 c4. I'm trying to figure out how to install the kickdown cable. Looked at previous thread but still have questions. I'm assuming the threaded end with nut connects to lever from pedal. Where does other end connect? I saw the pic earlier but mine...

    need info on classic mustangs

    Billison, Great info coming from everyone. I'm going to have to agree with the guys on being ready. My advice (along with taking someone) is to just surf the internet for pics, go to a car show, pic up a mag, something that will help you decide your preference. DON'T look at modded up cars...

    need info on classic mustangs

    billison, welcome to the classic side. '67 did start the big block era with stangs. I like 'em all but am partial to the 65-66 with a preference for '65. It's the little things like the side chrome, gas cap, etc. Your question will get a ton of responses. It's a little vague. First look...

    Bad Taste Mustang Mods

    All great lists guys. All of you have forgotten probably the most hideous of all "additions". (Somebody here has 'em) The huge running horse or muscle flexing pony decal that takes up the whole back window. Geez, if you got it, take it out. AND, crinkled up, beat back into "shape", off...

    dropping today!

    Just typing some excitement here. Going to sit the engine/tranny in the car this afternoon. Bought the car when I was 16, inspection ran out in '93, finally got around to paying her some attention in '06. It's been an expensive past 2 months. Trying to get the "big" stuff done so I can...

    North Carolina Stangnet Members?

    Not in Raleigh, I live in Hickory. Hey 67topless, how's NCSU. I went there a few years before transferring out. Fun times. Martyred, if you're ever in the Hickory area let me know. I'm just about finished with the '65 rebuild. Everything re-done except body, interior, and frame (which was...

    95 5.0 is super slow! Why? Please help!

    Can't really answer your question without knowing history of car. Assuming all is good (sounds like it), here is my experience with stock automatics. Won't spin by just punching the gas. Had a '90 LX 7up auto and the stock gearing was awful for bottom end. Passing gear was great...take off...

    66 Mustang Susp. Swap Questions

    Nice on the Toploader! Too bad you're so far away from North Carolina. In my quest for parts I came across a "salvage yard/restoration facility" that is the equivalent of a mustang goldmine. Concerning your front end: I have two tie rod adapters that will allow you to use your 6 cyl tie rods...

    66 Mustang Susp. Swap Questions

    If you're doing a swap on your 66 6cyl to v8 parts you will need to switch everything. I'm doing this right now with a Granada disc conversion. Outer tie rods will not fit into the adjusting sleeve. You'll need sleeves, inners, drag link, pitman and idler arm. None of it interchanges to my...

    65 header question

    Hey guys, been reading for a while but first post. I need some header advice. Have a 65 coupe original I6. Rebuilding a 289 with all the extra drivetrain goodies to boot. Which headers will bolt up without any modification? I've seen so many conflicting stories and was wondering who has...
