    2005 bullet wheels on a 65

    tried on my new shoes I tried to put my wheels on last night. The rear was touching the leaf spring and there was exactly .5" from the mating surface of the wheel to the hub. The front was about 1.5" from seating on the hub. It was limited by upper control arm. Any thoughts/suggestions. I...

    2005 bullet wheels on a 65

    Thanks for the info. I ordered a set of zero mile '06 wheels tires today. Once I get around to putting them on I'll post up the exact specs for my application. Until then I shall be working on converting my S-10 to an injected 350. It better not be faster than my mustang.

    Baskspacing, offset, etc.

    Trying to figure out if I can run the 05 wheels on my car. I am under the impression from my reading that backspacing is a function of offset. I have read that the new style wheels are 6.295" of backspacing. I have also seen that they have 45mm offset (1.77"). The calculation that I have seen...

    2005 bullet wheels on a 65

    Now I am confused How is the backspacing on the wheels 6.295? I will post this in a new me thread too but, from my readings, BS is = .5 x wheel width + offset. =(.5 x 8") + 45mm =(.5 x8") + 1.77" = 5.77" baskspacing Am I right?

    2005 bullet wheels on a 65

    nice car blkfrd, that exactly the look I am going for, only in poppy red. Just to clarify, you are running 05/06 wheels? My car sits at stock height (for now) so I should have to worry less about clearance issues. What tires are you running front/rear? Thanks Trevor

    The penultimate of stupid looking Fords

    Good Ole days I was just doing a search on fender rolling and came acrros this thread. I just had to add that I grew up right by that lifted '68 cp w/ plow. That thing was hideous. It was sitting there for sale for years. I wonder why? I'll have to check on it next time I go "home." The second...

    What dual resevior master cyl. will bolt onto my '65

    I have a 1965 fastback with the big single resevior m/c. I have non-power original factory disk brakes. I did a couple of searches but didnt find any clear answer. Is there any dual resevior m/c that will bolt right up, no mods? The cheaper, the better. I just started grad school and am now very...

    Anyone in NJ do an EFI Swap??

    efi How much modification is required on the original harness. I had bought all the parts to do this about 5 yrs ago but have yet to get around to it. I dont remember the particulars but had just planned on hooking up what I needed to get it to run and cutting the rest out once it was running...

    Total Control Products Rack Questions??

    Another Option If you already have power steering but want to upgrade this seems like a good way to go.... http://www.speeddirect.com/index.aspx?nodeID=75 A friend of mine did this setup in his '66 vette and he loves it. Seems to be a little less money too. Trevor

    My proposed combo - any thoughts?

    good info. 1320 stang - sounds like the heads I have should easily be able to make the power that I want. I'm not looking to go very radical on gearing (prob 3.55's) and a stay with a streetable cam - looking like the come xe274. I would think this will get me close to 280-300 rwhp. I figure...

    Its been a couple years since I posted on here and its about time I get around to doing some of the things I had been too poor to do. I have a set of extensively ported D0OE '69 351 heads that were on a car that was running high 10's. They have 1.94/1.60 stainless valves in them. I just...
