    Put on the rack

    Looking to do some solo II, open road racing and open track day events in the II. When I restored/rebuilt the car I put in a rebuilt manual steering rack in so I could free up some horse power and reduce complexity of running power steering pump and lines. How many turns lock to lock is a II...

    The proform unit is just like the DUI one but way cheaper. The Proform unit is basically just a GM HEI that fits into a small block Ford. I would check with your local speed shop they likely have the proform catalog that you could read the blurb from. The Mach gets stored in an un-heated garage...

    Lets Talk Tires!

    1985-1993 fox Mustang 10 holes or 87-? turbines will fit on the rear of a II without spacers. I scored two crusty 10 holes for $20.00. They are not even in the same neiborhood as light though :D I have 225/50/15 drag radials for the wheels. I have not mounted them yet because I am planning the 5...

    Lets Talk Tires!

    I have crappy cyl heads, but I found a cheap way to get an extra 100hp. The magic is not cheap though $60 for 10 pounds worth of magic. The best ride $60.00 can buy for 3.5 minutes this side of a strip club though :nono:
