    Phoenix welders?

    I have been trying to find someone in phoenix to weld my new pans and firewall extensions in place but so far no luck. The problem is that I got the car completely dismantled so driving it to the shop would be impossible. Anyone know of any place or person that would do onsite welding. I...

    How critical are forged internals?

    i am doing all forged internals. To me it gives piece of mind. It might not need it but i figured I might as well the extra few hundred for a forged internals and make the engine as bullet proof as possible. At a minimum i would due pistons and probably rods. I think of it this way, when it...

    engine pops thru carb

    I wouldn't say it was lean rather fuel not combusting. Check plugs and wires. I had a friend this weekend with a 89 cavalier that was having the same issue. Pulled the plugs and the terminals were corroded and the plugs where horrible. Replace those and the plugs and no more problems. Check...

    GTE-650 project

    I didn't catch that, darn work got in the way of actually getting the innuendo's. You should build in a under carriage like ferrari's use, hehe.

    GTE-650 project

    I read the info about the project. Are you planning on sticking closely to their design? I wish I had the time, money and know how to join you as this sounds like another great build. Best of Luck to all those that join in.

    Non stroked 351, 400HP easy?

    thanks, I was just reading in car craft, they had a $2500 budjet build for a 351. Don't say how much HP it pulled but a good article non the less and that same mag has the write up that you are talking about: http://carcraft.com/techarticles/116_0307_ford/

    Non stroked 351, 400HP easy?

    In an attempt to save money I am hoping to not stork my motor. But is 400hp at the crank easy to get if possible out of the 351W and still be decent street driving (I don't mind if the thing idles really rough and but dieing isn't an option). New heads ported and polished, beefy cam, intake...

    What do I ask?

    I found a guy selling a 67 mustang fender and a 9" rear end, He doesn't know what it came out of. What do I ask for to find out. Does he measure the overall width, if so from what points? Is there casting numbers that would tell me? Thanks Eric

    aftermarket CAST IRON heads?

    Dunno if this is true, but if you don't keep the correct antifreeze-water ratio it will corode the aluminum really fast. Being in AZ I tend to run more water then is suggested. I also like the nostalgia of cast iron. However i am still on the fence. Anyone know if there is any truth to the...

    Structural Rigidity

    I am not talking a full roll cage, just a roll bar. I am half looking for structural rigidity half just getting it to pass tech for drags if I run below a 11 (or 11.5 now i think, can't remember)

    Structural Rigidity

    I really would like to put one in abut I wouldn't want my kids to be in danger and I want the family to be able to cruise inthe stang. Now my question is. With 4 point harnesses wouldn't that make it impossible for a child or even an adult to rack the brain bucket against the bars? And the...

    Can T-5 handle 400 hp?

    I can see what you is thinking, but with that logic I could have a 33 million HP engine and the trans mission would last for a mile. I am sure they state lower to cover themselves, but I would be willing to bet it is a pretty fine line. State to low you wouldn't be able to sell as many...
