Right now ive got some E7 heads tht were polished up before installing but i was looking into GT40 heads as you can find them reasonably priced. Would GT40 heads work well...

    refreshining, 302

    If you want a complete package, look into the edelbrock packages out there. they offer cam, intake, head and carb combos that will help you get the power your looking for and there is less guessing. A dress up kit to compliment it would be nice too.

    Need some help...track times inside

    How wide of a tire can you put on those 14X6 rims, You didnt mention what you currently have. I think with pretty much any performance tire you should see a difference. Also since you said you dont have alot of $$$. Even though some people are against it. Why not add some giggle juice just for...

    71-73 Mustang Mounting Dash Kit?

    What I did was use the CD player "housing or "casing" to outline the back part of the bezel. Then I used a simple dremel tool to cut it out. Next I slipped the casing in and lifted up the proper tabs to hold it in place. Then I slipped the Cd player into the case and slipped over the trim so you...

    Major Transmission Leakage.

    So ever since I have had my Mustang it has always leaked transmission fluid but minorly. Just this past weekend after installing a new starter I noticed that there was alot of fluid underneath the car. So I added about 1 1/2 bottles of fluid. I drive around for 5 min and come back and notice...

    Header/Starter issues...

    So as some may know I put longtubes on the car a couple months ago. So yesterday I go to take out the car and the starter makes a weird noise and all I get is a whirling sound. I crank again and all get is a zipping/whirling sound. So I figure something is up with the starter. I quickly find...

    What do you think about my cam?

    That is a good cam, you'll get decent power and not suffer with gas consumption. I had that cam a while back with my current intake, carb, and stock heads and it made for a very enjoyable daily driver.

    my 71 ???

    That is most definately a coupe. Many people who are new dont realize the huge difference between a standard or "grande" Coupe and Mach or Boss for 1973-'73. That is the rear part of the car. Here are some pics Mach/Boss all look like...

    Damn it, starting problems when hot

    Well, recently I have just been taking the stang up and down the street since i dont have registration, or inspection tags yet but I dont want the engine and the car to just sit around. Any way i drove it for about 10 minutes and parked her back in the drive way. My dad asked me to move the...

    Who is interested in a turbo kit??

    Sounds like a pretty good idea. If you can pop it onto stock or modified setups. Paxton says you can drop their SC onto a stock 66 302 and get between 30% and 50% more power. So if he can match it I say when can i get one. Turbo will give you power without affecting MPG as much as an SC.

    A Sign From God??

    I know what you mean.. Manual drums all around can take alot of getting used to. I remeber when my rear brake line split. Thank god for dual master cylinders. I felt the brake pedal very sloshy so I checked the bowls and sure enough one side was nearly empty. Filled it up, drove it home...
