    I have $7k..what do i do with it?

    G-Force (every insert opinion now) sells a brand new t-5 setup to handle around 600hp for $2k. Might be able to call and see if they will put their setup in a used case for less. Used to have it on their site for $1500 with a used case. As for the 9", damn that is a good price. I was looking...

    Wilwood brake Kit.. (the one from ebay)

    I'd rather support the local speed shops and the people that help me rather then saving a few bucks. Otherwise those local speed shops won't be around to help much longer. Not knocking yah, just my opinion. We all know the saying opinions are like ***holes, everyones stinks but yours.

    Sponsorships

    Somehow i came across carsponsorships.com and decided to look into that. BTW, don't worry, waste of time and money. You are guaranteed crappy sponsorship (like gila film window tint amongst others) The question I have is has anyone ever found a worthwhile sponsor? I don't like the idea of...

    4-link / minitub question about 65 coupe

    iam serious about getting one if the price is right, and timing, like i said, i got a kid on the way so the money has to be there. I figured I would get the rear kit and rear end with detroit locker when it comes time.

    If you were to choose....

    I was thinking you would want the hydraulic if you plan on a upgraded clutch with heavier pressure plate

    4-link / minitub question about 65 coupe

    It isn't bad at all, just not in my budget. Cheaper to get cal tracs and panhard bar. Got a kid on the way, no OT for me (salary) and school. Gotta get the best value items. The rear is a good deal, I am guesing that doesn't include the third member.

    4-link / minitub question about 65 coupe

    i was thinking about going with the martz chasis as well. Just so much $$$$. Maybe a group buy? hehe

    If you were to choose....

    I would always choose a 5 spd. I feel like i have more control and more "one with the car" with a stick. But that is personal preference and has absolutely no facts to back it up or stats.

    A PERFORMANCE sacrilegious swap

    Gut the thing, build a tubular frame, dump a blown 514 stroker in and some big ole slick in the back. Then you will smoke anyone on the street.

    Would you get a 390 for $150?

    I was originally going to do a 390 in my 67 but price made me reconsider and figured I would do a 108 stroker. But that is a killer price for the 390. It is completely apart and cleaned and never been bored. I will mention that I do have a 351W block sitting in my garage that I got for free...

    Barrett Jackson

    You also got it signed by carroll shelby and edsel ford. Along with that you got a trip to the factory to watch your actual car being built. I don't think it can be a tax wrote off cause he got something in return. Kinda like the health and wealth raffle (in az). You but a raffle ticket but...

    Great.....

    My dad's 2000 stang was spray painted in front of his house. He was outside painting the house, 2 hours later he goes to move it in and there is a blue spray paint stripe down the side. My 02 stang was hit by a paintball gun goin down the road, Was lucky actually, had the windows open and...

    Intardnet, I like that.

    65 or 67 fastback

    68 is pretty much a 67. I wouldn't worry about how rare they are, but how much you like them. Everyone has their own opinion as to which is the best body style. For fastback i like the 69's. In 67 I prefer the coupe. I am sure i will immediately get flamed for that statement but just what i...

    Anyone fit a 460 BB in a 67?

    and that is the issue. Baby on the way means I have to watch the cash flow. And the 514 i can get for a better price then the 408W i was looking at. And the sound of the big blocks is just killer. I couldn't afford a 4500 short block. As for the victor, if it won't clear the hood I would...

    Anyone fit a 460 BB in a 67?

    FRPP doesn't (at least that i saw) The thing is that I can get a discount on FRPP parts (not sure on engines) and I don't have to have them shipped. I am really considering this option. Thing comes with the Super cobra jet head and a Victor Jr. intake manifold. Pop on a Race Demon carb and I...

    Anyone fit a 460 BB in a 67?

    is the battery relocation neccesary? I plan on dropping a 5 speed in. I think being able to say i got a 514 would rock. How is the fitment under the hood, do you need a 3" cowl to make it fit?

    so i just watched the bullitt chase scene for the first time

    I am a twenty something and have owned two mustangs, know who steve mcqueen is, love the movie, understand the mach 1 and bullitt heritage. As a matter of fact before I sold my first stang I popped in Sheryl Crows - Steve McQueen and cruised for a while. Then went and traded her in for the...
