    Another question....

    I am in the process of installing this digital 7 with boost control and have a question as to where I should hook up the Map sensor so that it reads the intake pressure correctly. I have a fitting on the blower discharge tube or there is a couple of fittings on the carb. (Berry Grant). The...

    my hyd. clutch install

    I have a very similar set up using the McLeod Hyd. throw out bearing and the slave cylinder. I have been very happy with is especailly having the threaded rod to be able to adjust pedal height. It has a very new car feel to it and I have not had any chattering issues for a change.

    Boosted Ignition suggestions?

    I actually just bought the msd 23121 but am really new to this whole map sensor deal so I need to read up on which is going to be best for my car. I would consider buying a used one though so I could play around with which one works best.

    Boosted Ignition suggestions?

    I havent even paid for the box yet because I was waiting to speak to someone as to which MAP sensor I will need. I am going to paypal the seller today and hope to have it by next weekend so I can get it all installed. I appreciate the timing info, that will give me a good place to start. I have...

    Boosted Ignition suggestions?

    I have just ordered an MSD Digital 7 pn#7535 box and their map sensor pn#23121 along with their billet dist. I like the adjustability the coolness factor but am looking for advice from those who have a boosted ignition system. Maybe some out there has some experience with these boxes could...

    Car is cursed

    I had a similair issue and am going to throw this out there although I dont think this is it but....Make certain your valve guides are not too tight. I know that wouldnt cause the spring to break unless the clearance was way too tight but I have been down this road and it wasnt a Piston to Valve...

    Supercharger Questions

    Your carb can be modded for blow thru but the best way to handle this is to buy a carb designed specifically for supercharged applications (or go EFI). Carbs use the vacuum of the engine to deterine fuel requirments as it draws air through it but you change everything when you introduce boost...

    Supercharger Questions

    No, I saw your set up and all I can say is :hail2: I was directing that to Pooley who was asking about blowing thru a carb. and to do that correctly you need something like the pic below.

    Supercharger Questions

    If you are planning to go carb'd be ready to replace your carb also. If your is vac. secondary it will not work as well as a true blow through carb. Demon has them now and I have had great luck with mine other than not being able to get the fuel level high enough on the primary side:shrug:

    Small town car show

    I have been invited to our small town car show and while I have the powertrain done for the most part I have not had the body work completed. The car show isnt to be judged but I am still not sure my car with rust bubbles showing is ready. I feel like the interior and engine bay is clean enough...

    Bolt on hood scoop

    I only bolted mine down & never bonded it. That is true about the engine getting wet everytime you wash it though....

    Supercharger Questions

    The reason I am posting this pic is because I am using the "ltd" braket. I like the fact that I will be able to just bolt up a power steering pump at a latter date.

    Bolt on hood scoop

    I have installed one on my 66 and have been very happy with it. I assume you are talking about a period correct Shelby style? I dont have my camera today or I'd send you some pics but its a very straight forward install and totally changes the look of the car. I am about to have body work done...

    Should i mod my mustang?

    I get the comments from people that I have messed up a classic by the changes I have made but they are FAR fewer than the compliments. My opinion is that if you can afford to and have the mechanical knowledge, do whatever you want to make the car you want. I was able to finally make the mods I...

    Flowmaster vs Magnaflow mufflers

    I cant say which is "better" as I have never had a flowmaster system but I have a Magnaflow system with an X pipe. I cant say enough about the sound and have even had a guy tell me he thought it was a new cobra pulling up behind him. I do believe though that the X over H is much better way to...

    Took her for a spin for the first time in 4 years! What a BEAST!

    I can relate myself although it was more like 7 years for me in which time everything on the car changed. You kinda think you'll know whats its going to be like but after going from basically the 302 I had in high school to a stroked & blown 347 with a 6 speed the change was amazing. I cant...
