    Electric or Standard water pump

    I am running a Vortech supercharger on my car. I think I will change the t-stat first then look at the problem. When the car gets hot it is usually while in traffic. It will cool right down when I get to highway speeds. I have as much fan as I can fit on the radiator. I don't have the space...

    Electric or Standard water pump

    I am in the process of building a new 331 for my car. I will continue to use my blower on the car so I need a good cooling system. I am currently running a 190 degree t-stat and notice the car runs between 190-210 depending on outside temp. I was wondering is you get any better cooling with...

    I've decided to put a 331 in my car and have a question.

    Thanks for the confirmation on the main girdle. I thought it was not needed but I just wanted to verify. I have a guy on corral that will sell me a new Boss block for $1350 plus shipping. I guess shipping will be about $100-150. If it is then I will step up and get it. It seems like used...

    I've decided to put a 331 in my car and have a question.

    We'll I am still waiting for a good deal on a block but have another question. Since I am going for an aftermarket 4 bolt main block do I need to have a main girdle or is ok with the 4 bolt main caps alone?

    I've decided to put a 331 in my car and have a question.

    I normally keep an eye on the corral. In fact I picked up my rods and cam from there. I'll have to check out nmradigital.com. Thanks!

    I've decided to put a 331 in my car and have a question.

    It looks like I need to save a bit more money for a block. My current setup was only ran up to 5200 rpm with a vacuum leak on the intake. My tuner feels I am likely at 430 rwhp with a little more rpm and the leak fixed. If anyone hears of a good deal on a good R/A block, boss, dart or man of...

    I've decided to put a 331 in my car and have a question.

    I am running a 306 right now and decided to go with a 331. I have purchased some H beam Scat rods and a Scat Forged crank. I plan on getting some -14 cc dished Probe Pistons. I have picked up a Trick Flow stage 1 cam to replace my E303 I have now. I plan on reusing my AFR 165 heads and 1.7...

    Edelbrock Pro Flo XT What Are Your Thoughts?

    I have been thinking that intake would look great with a turbo setup. Fabricate an inlet pipe that would feed into the individual throttle bodies. I don't know if it would work any better but it sure would look cool!:nice:

    Type of Nail Gun for MDF Console / Speaker box?

    Have you thought about using plywood for the console. It would be much more durable and less prone to splitting. That comes from my own observations when I built my speaker box out of MDF and the console out of plywood.

    Rebel Mustang Reviews? 67 Shelby Hood/Kit

    I had a Rebel real Shelby panel as well as Eleanor side scoops and they both fit like dog crap. I would never use their crap again. I had good luck with fiberglass from Mustangs Unlimited and Maier Racing.

    So someone decided to copy our idea for an E-brake handle

    At least I know I have the original. Sorry to hear about the bad news.

    carpet review

    I also have the same carpet and it is great. I agree it was a pain to install to my satisfaction.

    Ron Morris Street Force vs TCP coilover

    I have the RM kit and love it. It came with 450 lb springs which are a little stiff. If I were to do it again I would have gone with 400 lb springs. Other than that it is beautiful!

    Pinion angle and gear whine

    I also have the same rear end setup as you and have the same gear whine under deceleration. Did you get your unit from TJ on Ebay? I think he lives in PA IIRC.

    steeroids / J-car Rack and pinion = Sloppy steering

    What great timing for this thread. I drove my car last night and noticed the steering was very sloppy on my Steeroids rack. My bolts also came loose and I also tightened up the rack. It feels much better now. I couldn't test drive the car due to weather but I will take it out in a day or so...

    Procar Rally and Belts

    I am 6' and most of it in the torso. I find the seats are a little high when I look out the front window. I beat that by reclining them another notch and all is well. I have a tilt column and smaller wheel so I don't have any problems with that. I don't notice any head clearance problems...

    transmission?

    I recently replaced my T5 with a T56 6 speed. I chose the T56 because of its two overdrive gears. The first is like a road race TKO500/600 and the second is like the standard OD on the T5 or standard TKO. It will not fit in the standard trans tunnel unless you change some other parts. It fit...

    68 Mustang fastback 18" wheels

    I have had two sets of 18's on the back of my car. The first was a 4.5 bs and and 8" wide. It was a little tight I would have felt more comfortable with 4.75". 255 40 fit well with those wheels. My current set is 9" wide and the extra was all to the inside so it is 5.75 bs. I am running 275...
