    67 Newbie With Pics....

    Nice car! I can't help but agree that there are striking similarities between it and the El though, the paint, the shelby lights and deck lid, the TCP pedals, the front valance with a similar light layout. Whatever though, I don't give a crap whether it is a copy or not, it looks nice. I hope...

    ok ok stupid question

    All this time I thought it was there to stop the fuel sloshing around like an infinite amount of infinitesimal baffles. It does that too right?

    hood hinges

    Very nice, but I agree that it's one of those aesthetic mods like wheels. I would get them long after wheels as well, as how often do you see them? Granted they may work very nicely, but not that ($) nicely. Dave I think there are no bids because everyone is waiting for the last minute bid...

    Bellhousings

    Ahh of course, the one thing that should have been most obvious to me about bellhousings and scattershields was left out. I've never been good with years of parts, I would rather see things listed as "fits 6-bolt 302W, 351W/C and Tremec 3550/TKO 7.200" input shaft transmission." It just seems...

    Bellhousings

    Thanks for the info guys, I would like to expand further: I've just only clicked just how exactly the same 351W and 302W are. They are exactly the same except for deck height right? Which means the only components that won't interchange are the intake manifold, exhaust manifold and crank...

    Bellhousings

    Ok I didn't want to intrude on another thread, but it got me thinking. Am I correct in saying 351 (C and W) and 302 blocks will use the same bellhousing? What is a 6-bolt block, and what is the alternative to a 6-bolt? Why are 78 - 93 302/351 different to 5.0L (1994 - 95) scattersheilds...

    picture of my mustang (for historic) haha

    That first pic is awesome. It looks even better bigger as you can see the tyres, and it looks (on the right anyway) like it is tubbed with big fatties on. Well sorta, low profile ones.

    TKO 500 in a classic

    I'm convinced - testimonial from an expert in the field is pretty good testimonial.

    Finally got pics of Stang

    Beautiful car! I hope to have one as beautiful one day. I'll leave mine LHD though, even though it is a little awkward, as it will be more original and won't have to go through major surgery. I would like to see a head to head comparison of 10 Aussies (or Brits as well) and 10 people from...

    Clutch pedal- manual or power brakes?

    Do you mean with the booster or with the discs and a manual master cylinder? If you use a manual MC and the correct hanger and pedal, manual will be correct, and work as it should. If you want to use a manual pedal with a booster, you will need the hanger as well, as it has a different...

    Engine setback thought experiment??

    Sorry for not replying sooner, I too was going to bed, but at night. Others have answered it anyway - yes, moving the engine mass back will centralise the whole mass more. The amount though as others have said, will hardly be noticable. The simplest way I can think of analogising it at the...

    Cougar scoop on a mustang?? Anybody?

    Maier racing sell fibreglass hoods with Cougar scoops. It's just a shorter boss 429 scoop so it should fit fine. BTW I like the same scoop setup.

    Engine setback thought experiment??

    It is where the mass of the engine is in direct relation to the car that matters. Any leverage the mass of the engine has over the mass of the rest of the car is only changed if the position of the engine relative to the rest of the car is changed. The force vectors that you will end up...

    Who makes electric cut outs

    Only if the sum of the angles of each of those turns is greater than 180 degrees. :D Of course you mean 90 degree turns, but that isn't specifically stated now is it. :p Sorry for diverting the course of your thread bluestang, I do rant a bit.

    Who makes electric cut outs

    bluestang I'm not trying to annoy you or argue with you, but the attitude of enjoying it any way you want is basically the same as what you said in a previous post about the guy that annoys you in traffic so much you want to punch him in his face. Enjoying your car by obnoxiously blasting noise...

    Who makes electric cut outs

    I don't agree that driving around with your stereo at self-deafening / look at me volume is minding your own business, it's being antagonistic. It certainly isn't pleasurable nor does it serve any other purpose. Don't get cut-outs, the biggest thing they add is the ability to hang your wang...

    Car CD Player - need suggestions

    The pothole was exaggerated but anything that will skip a CD can "skip" a HDD. Now a smart MP3 manufacturer would load whole songs into solid state memory all at once so drive seek is limited to near the beginning of songs, or some other loading type procedure, but it could still coincide with a...

    Car CD Player - need suggestions

    You should get an MP3 player without a HDD too, like the smaller ipods, as a HDD is similar to a CD, it has discs and reading heads, and under the same conditions that make a CD player skip, may not make the MP3 HDD skip, but can jolt the head hard enough to hit the disc and damage it or itself.

    Finished prototype Mustang disc brake spindles

    I think (hope) you're going to find you're correct about the subtle changes, I was reading an article last night, saved the link http://mustangmonthly.com/techarticles/89378/ and they say from 68 up they used the single piston floating caliper, with the most significant change to this setup in...
