    I.R.S. in '67 Complete!

    Did you move the engine back farther or is that the usual position, just looks like some extra room from the radiator core support and the front of the engine. Looks like room for a v-10 (like the one used in the new shelby ;) ) Also what kit did you use for the front suspension and where...

    M-II front suspension

    Rent-a-Racer the web sit to Jeri Martz is http://www.martzchassis.net/ . I spelled his last name wrong in my previous post. I have some pictures he sent me, if you are interested I could email them to you. I personally like the idea of eliminating the shock towers. It lets you clean up...

    M-II front suspension

    Hey 1970 slantroof, how is the suspension install going? I ordered a cross member from full tilt street rods about 1 1/2 to 2 months ago and he called the other night and said it was ready to ship. He redisigned it some from his original package so that is why there was the delay but I haven't...

    Mig welding on efi vehicle

    I have to do some mig welding on my 92 ranger and was wondering if most people disconnect the battery or just leave it and weld. My concern is I don't want to potentially fry the computer. Would running a chain or wire and grounding from the frame to the ground be sufficient? Thanks for...

    Upper RPM Miss?

    Possibly your flame is being blown out at higher rpm, may need to upgrade your ignition with a stronger coil and related hardware.

    Scoop or Cowl Hood?

    If you go to mustang plus website they show the different style hoods on cars, just click on hoods. My personal preference is cowl induction, I think it gives better look, unless you get crazy and go above 3", then it begins to look like an oval on wheels.

    My 70 Dash...pics

    Very nice, I love those gauges, those would look good in my 65. Just as a side note, you need to adjust the idle on your engine, looks like you are idling at 1100 rpm by the looks of the tach

    G-Force T-5 or Tremecs New TKO 500 Tranny?

    My feeling is I would lean toward the Gforce trans because it is smaller and I assume it ways less. I don't know the weight of the tko or the Gforce t-5 either so like I said it is just an assumption. But you should also consider the gearing of both to decide which would work better and if you...

    2000 4.6l cobra crate engine swap into 65/66 mustangs?

    You could maybe get a bolt in strut suspension set up from RPS or fatman fabrication and maybe be able to cut out enough of the shock tower (and then reinforce again to carry the spring load), then coat the valve covers with some KY jelly and slip it in. You may also be able to get a coil...

    baking soda media for sand blasting - where to get it?

    RajunCajun, I am not saying you are wrong but have you looked into it before. I have seen some of it done in magazines and didn't pay close attention to the blaster they used but it did not appear much different and the articles did not mention that it needed a special blaster. Thanks for any...

    baking soda media for sand blasting - where to get it?

    Has anyone ever used the baking soda inplace of sand for rust and paint removal at their house? If so how did it work, where did you get it and how much was it for how many pounds. Was it easier to clean up? Thanks for any help

    Back a 428cj with a t56???

    I was looking at my latest issue of car craft last night and it had an article on the McCloed modular bellhousing. You may want to call them or check out their website if you haven't already.

    Back a 428cj with a t56???

    Doesn't tremec make a modular bell housing that had different adaptors so you can do different engine and transmission combos. You should check with them.

    whats wrong with a MII suspension??

    You should talk with 70 slantroof (on this forum), he is putting a MII in his 70 and says he dropped the upper arm mount down to get a better camber curve. He has some picture that he could show you.

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

    I hate to but into a thread this long because I am to lazy and don't have the time to read each post but what about a steering box from a Granada? Are they any better designed? I don't have one to compare but maybe it would be a bolt in. What about a steering box from a race car, has anyone...

    Prime before bondo?

    Are some brands of bondo better than others, or are they all about the same. What about the bondos that have the metal chips, I believe eastwood sells some of these, suppose to be more durarable. Anybody use these and how was the results. Thanks.

    Prime before bondo?

    I was wondering what your thoughts are on priming an area before bondo is applied? I believe I read in a magazine once that they preferred to do this, but it seems the usual practice is to bondo onto bare metal. I think I like the prime first but do you guys think the bondo would adhere the...
