    Stupid question about a c4

    I've always had manual trans cars so this is new to me. I put a c4 in my Fairlane and I don't know how they are downshifted. Does it need a cable or mechanical linkage? And where do I hook it to on the trans?

    My new project! (pics)

    I dropped off the tank and radiator this morning, then spent over half the day and 100+ miles on my truck to find a stupid water pump pulley I could use. I also made my own arm to attach to the original throttle bellcrank (I didn't want to modify the stock one because I want to go back to...

    3speed to t5 on a 68 Mustang

    I went from a 6 cyl with a 3 speed to my 351w and a T5. I used a Ron Morris cable kit Fox body Mustang bellhousing, clutch kit, fork Flywheel - I had to buy one the right balance for my windsor, but it is a 157 tooth for a 10.5 inch fox body Mustang clutch. California Pony Cars crossmember...

    My new project! (pics)

    Lol! It was the easiest way to get to what I was doing without killing my back. Today I took the gas tank out, and I'm taking it to be cleaned and sealed along with the radiator to be checked, cleaned, and/or repaired tomorrow.

    My new project! (pics)

    Well, I made some good progress today. I had to lift the engine back up to replace the top two trans to engine bolts I was using. The ones I used the first time were too long so I put a spacer on them, but last night I realized that the bolts were hitting the firewall which was causing...

    My new project! (pics)

    I'm about to go see if I can mess with the wiring some, make sure it's okay, and fix whatever I need to. I'm going to rob the harness for the alternator and voltage regulator off my other 68 coupe and put it in the Fairlane so I can get away from that generator.

    My new project! (pics)

    Well, I got the new motor and tranny in. I picked up a C4 and a torque converter Monday. I still have some engine bay cleaning to do, and I still need to figure out what I'm going to do about pulleys, because the 221's crank pulley is a 3 bolt. I need a matching set of v belt pulleys...

    My new project! (pics)

    Picked up a 302 from a 91 mustang for 175$ yesterday. Today I cleaned it, painted it old Ford blue, the valve covers gold, and put my spare rpm intake and edelbrock 600 on it. I thought it would look kind of cool that way, like an old 289. Also painted the stock fairlane manifolds cast coat...

    94-98 sail panels on 99-04?

    They won't work right. I stripped a 96 that someone gave me and I had the same idea. Just holding it up to my 04 gt I knew it wouldn't be right. I seem to remember something about how the back edge where it meets the back glass being an issue, as well.

    4.6 2valve vs 2.3 turbo w/ Volvo head

    Dude, as cool as the 2.3 would be, it would totally screw up your particular car. PLEASE DON'T DO IT!

    Throttle Cable Mod

    I think I'm going to try this mod. My carpet had a hole wore in it from the throttle at like 70k miles, lol!

    I put a new rack & pinion on mine today.

    Does every one of these cars smell like Exhaust?

    My wife says that it's her favorite perfume. Her 90 has an off road X with no tailpipes. Doesn't bother her either.

    Difference Between Tokico Blues and Stock Mach 1/Bullitt Shocks

    I'd like to know also. I have pro kit springs with tokico blues and it beats the hell out of me.

    Wtf is wrong with this combo?

    I kind of don't really want to post this, but I'm up for some suggestions. The new dyno day thread on another forum I'm on got me thinking about my results from the last one. This is a mild setup but I thought it would make more than it did. My 68 Coupe: 69 351w TFS TW 170 heads, 1.6 RR...

    what color blue is this?

    :drool: I love BAB. If my Sonic Blue 04 ever needs a total repaint, it's changing to BAB.

    Trying to get rarity of this 1970 Mach 1

    I agree with getting a marti report. I got the 40$ one for my 68 because I thought it would be cool to have. For something like though I would get the deluxe. It's much more detailed.
