    export brace or monte carlo bar?

    The MC bar is held in by the existing bolts in front of the shock towers. Be prepared to use a little muscle and a hammer to get the bar lined up :) If you have an MSD dist., you will need the curved bar. You do have a 2 piece export brace, but the aftermarket one is better because it's one piece.

    Do I need to port my new intake?

    Ah, yes....I knew there was someone on here with a similar set up that was using an air gap/AFR heads. Thanks, I'll PM him.

    Fuel pressure?

    I bought a Holley mechanical fuel pump recently that is too much pressure for my carb. I bought a regulator for the needed adjustment. The question is, if I decide later to add a larger cfm carb will I need to increase fuel pressure or is this unrelated? I know different carbs may need...

    Do I need to port my new intake?

    I will probably be adding an Edelbrock Air Gap intake to my setup. Will I need to port it to get maximum performance out of my heads, etc.? I'm learning as I go with this build and based on my limited experience, I can't imagine that the intake will mate perfectly to my heads and give top...

    C4 to T5 swap.

    I used my C4 yoke on my 65 as well. I did cut the end of the yoke down a little to have it about the same length as the t5 yoke. Works fine.

    Just for shirts and giggles....

    I swapped my T5 in about 8 hrs. Of course that included running the clutch cable (which was the biggest PIA--Hooker headers, nuf said) and mounting the clutch pedal. I would think it would take you less to swap a C4 back in? I don't know, I'm a total newbie, but worked in my garage with no...

    Thanks D. Where can I find a regulator? I guess its just a gauge that is in-line?

    Carb help

    Do you happen to know what too much pressure is for my Edelbrock or 600 cfm in general? My Holley mechanical pump runs 6.5 to 8 psi and 110 gph. Edit: I just read on Holley's website that my fuel pump doesn't need a regulator? :shrug:

    Carb help

    Hi everyone, My engine had been running fairly well even though the carb probably wasn't adjusted perfectly. The car ran strong and had little to no smoke out the exhaust. I changed my stock fuel pump to a Holley not to long ago. I recently noticed what seemed to be my accelerator sticking...

    Installing CD player....

    Happy Holidays everyone! I want to re-locate my CD player so that it's closer to the shifter. I would like to mount the player perpendicular to the ground in a custom console I'll be building. Question is, will any CD player work at this angle or will I need to find one specifically for...

    Gear ratio advice

    Before my T5 swap, I had a C4 and 3.55 gears and I thought highway driving sucked! Anything over 60 mph and she was a hummin'. Didn't have a tach at the time, though. With the T5, she's not screamin so much and the rpm's are nice and low.

    Are you an automotive enthusiest misfit?

    Beautiful car, 70NE I say to each his own. Everyone has ideas, opinions and their own taste, doesn't mean we all have to be the same. I think as long as it's not some type of "specialty" stang (boss, shelby, etc.) do whatever you want to your car. That's why it's YOURS! I think there is a...

    . Hey thanks gamble, but I checked the tech forum before. I check ebay once and awhile to see what's out there, but nothing too exciting. I also checked barret/jackson's site that someone had posted before. I was really hoping someone would have some links like mdjay had. You'd have...

    What kind of radiator should i buy?

    Thanks Thanks everyone, you've all been a lot of help! I planned on relocating the battery to the trunk for aesthetic reasons, so I guess I should get the biggest rad I can? Bigger is better, right? :D
