    69 351w Radiator Upgrade?

    I measured and it does sit higher. It is definitely not a clutch fan. Here is a pic. Looks like just 4 bolt holes so I am guessing it doesn't come apart? So if you have no fan to start with. What would one use to mount a aftermarket fan on a pulley (whatever you call the base or column that is...

    69 351w Radiator Upgrade?

    I'll have to go with a 16" fan to clear everything. Do the stock fans come off of there base? I've removed my fan several times but always seemed to be 1 piece that doesn't separate. Also why wouldn't my stock fan fit with 24" radiator if they were also stock? Thanks,

    69 351w Radiator Upgrade?

    So I tried to slip in the 24" radiator today. My stock fan is too close or wide or both. Doesnt clear the inlet or the trans cooler lines. They dont seem to make a fan less than 17" wide. Or with a shorter base that I can find. There is a 2" fan spacer that if I put a replacement fan on if...

    Paint and Body Paint Peel N Chip

    Was barely able to squeeze some superglue underneath and hold down with magnets to dry. Appears to be holding good.

    Paint and Body Paint Peel N Chip

    That's about what I came up with. Super glue or the resin is probly better. Thanks,

    Paint and Body Paint Peel N Chip

    Any paint experts with ideas what I can do to stop this from getting worse and keep moisture out? Long term? Until more permanent shop quality fix. Cracked paint peeling away from metal. Dont care what it looks like as long as its sealed for a while.

    69 351w Radiator Upgrade?

    I'm in the middle of the swap now. My car came with the 20" 2 core radiator but has always had the bracket on top and saddles on bottom so don't know if it originally had a 24". It is only a 2 owner car but it was "worked on" in the 80's. In California which would explain the crappier...

    69 351w Radiator Upgrade?

    Mustangs Unlimited has a great selection! I forgot about them years ago. Thanks. They have a 20" 3 row, a 24" 4 row that's 3" thick and a 24" 2 row. I will make sure what I have and measure again. Thanks!

    69 351w Radiator Upgrade?

    By 24" do you mean the Scott Drake on the link I posted? If not can you be more specific? As far as mounting brackets I found these for the one I posted. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sdk-c7zz8a193al/overview/

    69 351w Radiator Upgrade?

    My 69 Mustang coupe has the standard 18" x 21" radiator, inlet & outlet on passenger side. It's never cooled as well as I'd like. This has 1 review saying installed easy on a 68 Mustang but yeah, just 1 review. Just want to make sure on stock the top is the inlet and the bottom is the outlet. I...

    Sct Chip Check Engine

    It was sorted in that I got my money back and a free chip since they never asked me to send it back. So if I ever want to I can take my chip and car to a dyno and get an actual working tune. It's not high on my list though right now.

    Sct Chip Check Engine

    After my nightmare with BAMA I asked for a refund and they refused. Since the chip was technically working. The tunes were shyt. That's why the tunes are free but the chip is extra. I complained to my credit card company and after about 4 months of processing they forced a refund. So I got a...

    Msd Distributor 69 351w

    I was able to get the oil drive gear to fit by very gently filing the whole. And got it to work and run. Apparently usually they send heavier springs with the distributor for different applications which I did need but did not come in the box. My video is as complete as can be for a project that...

    Msd Distributor 69 351w

    MSD has a stock size option to avoid clearance issues. That's what I have.

    Msd Distributor 69 351w

    I will definately check that but I don't think that's my main problem. The reason I installed the MSD was because the distributor hold down nut was loose and wouldn't start till I turned it all the way clockwise. It started but didn't run smooth as it was not properly timed. After timing it , it...

    Msd Distributor 69 351w

    I can only pray that you had the same problem and can tell me which ground was bad? Was the bad ground somewhere in the ignition system?

    Msd Distributor 69 351w

    Yes the gas was bad. That's the first thing I fixed this spring. Used air tank to blow out the fuel line and empty the tank, new carb kit and soaked the carb. New fuel pump. The gas was not a contributing factor as you can see in the video it ran good after MSD install. Then wouldnt run again do...

    Sct Eliminator Chip Bama

    I have an 89 GT. Trick Flow Street Heat Heads and cam. BBK SSI intake, cold air kit, 75mm throttle body, FR 24 lb injectors, Pro-M MAF sensor. FR higher than stock fuel pump. I thought it possible if they have all the manufacturer stats for these mods why couldn't they calculate a tune that...

    Sct Eliminator Chip Bama

    When I started this thread several people responded saying that their tunes are no good. They called them "off the shelf tunes" and the only way to get a good tune is to plug the chip and car into a dyno so the dyno computer can get raw real time data. Yours is the first good reply about BAMA...

    Msd Distributor 69 351w

    I was able to get this installed despite the oil gear drive not fitting right away and MSD not telling me it came with the right cam gear to begin with. It ran pretty good a few times but probably didn't fix whatever is wrong with my engine. You can see in the video that it runs good after...
