    65/66/TCP Motor Mounts Question

    From what I've heard, the 65 motor mounts are slightly lower than the 66's, which is something I will probably need to address as I am almost ready to swap in a Windsor into my 65. My question is how much lower and is the TCP mount like the 65 or the 66 in regards to this????? Chris Barton

    Header Testimonials....Header Chart??

    You know sanderson will build you a set of custom headers for about $1300. They are up by San Francisco. You have to leave your car there for 2 weeks but NOTHING looks as nice as a custom built set of headers....I also found a guy in Orange, that will do it for the same price. Takes him about 3...

    Need help with decision (Webers!!)

    They are Simular to ida's in looks, they are touted by most as being more "Streetable" than ida's. I will post a photo of them. The setup I got is from Pierce manifolds and is polished with chrome carb bodies and center pull linkage. I would have preferred a natural finish.....but I got them new...

    Need help with decision (Webers!!)

    Yeah, that had occured to me too, they are square on the ends and it wouldn't be that difficult to radius the corners to match the intake....I think that is what I will do...... Good comments, Thanks guys Chris

    for those of ya'll with 65-66's that arent scared of driving your car in the rain

    As long as you have wiper blades in good condition it is not really a problem. I actually enjoy driving in the rain (we get it so infrequently here in so cal) it seems to add about 200hp to my car......(at least it feels like it when I blip the throttle and get sideways at will.............)...

    OK, I am almost ready to pull the trigger on a big brake kit for my 65 fastback (13" rotors and min. 4 piston calipers). I want to make sure that I get the best bang for the buck...so I need to compile a list of who actually offers kits for my mustang. I know about Baer, Brembo, Wilwood, SSBC...

    OK - Friday I'm ordering a Randall's Rack

    Good point!! If Flaming River is so hot then why did they release a rack that wouldn't work with headers.....when the averavge customer that would want a rack and pinion is the same customer that PROBABLY has or wants headers? Either their engineers aren't that great or their...

    aluminum radiator

    I can't say ENOUGH about Ron Davis Radiators! I have had two and my brother has had one. Awesome quality and the price is right! I have put in two of the universal radiators they sell into late model mustangs. A little cutting with the grinder and no problem. Paid less then $300 as I...

    Engine Removal

    Double check that rule about not working on cars in the driveway......I have lived in several condos and townhomes with CC&R's before and usually what they are trying to prevent is dead cars laying about in various states of disrepair. See if you can find someone on the board and check what the...
