    :jaw: Holy Mona Lisa Batman! That is absolutely jaw dropping B-E-A-U-T-Y-F-U-L! Two thumbs way the heck up! I was never a fan of two tone paints, but this is the second car I've seen that looks awesome. And the color choice and depth of color on this, is freakin' stunning. Wow! What an...

    Is this a good idea for my 65 I6

    It sounds like time for a complete rebuild. Stop by Ford Six Performance Home/Index This is a great site for all that is inline 6 cylinder Ford. Find out which engine you have 170 c.i. or 200 c.i. On the 200 it is important to deck the head to make up the difference between the original...

    Puts out some great quality for such a reasonable price. BTW: Nothing sounds sweeter than a high reving small block! Very nice!

    Redo Deluxe Seats, or use my '94 seats

    TMI makes some really nice stuff. They have the retro style sets for the fox body cars, but that stops at '93. Might be worth contacting them. I have heard they can do custom as well. Classic Automotive Interiors - Restoration and Restyling Products for Classic, Fox Body, and Late Model...

    Elecric Fan and Adjustable Fan Controller

    It doesn't make sense - vacuum advance

    Might also check the ground pigtail wire that runs between the distributor body and advance plate. If it's broken, it can cause the symptoms you describe. Good luck!

    300hp 289?

    Just my two cents: If I understand what the OP is saying, he has heads that flow enough to feed a 347, but a poor breathing intake, and exhaust. A bottle neck before and after the heads will stall the intake charge, and eliminate scavenging on the exhaust side, killing torque. Reality is...

    Whats is a good alternative to KYB gas adjusts shocks?

    Due to the differences in overall weight, weight bias, unsprung weight, springs, tires, road conditions, driver perspective, etc., I don't see a post here that is wrong. Shocks should be chosen or adjusted to meet the specifics of the car, condition, and driver preferences. Even the same...

    Better braking power?

    The car in the signature below has a "Cobra brake" setup. Average stopping distance from 60mph to 0 is 122' with the 6 cylinder engine. Best was 117'. Handling at threshold was excellent. Road was a bit rough with slight dust. Needs a bit more bias to the rear. I was only able to get...

    Gas Cap Issue

    Just use two cork gaskets between the filler neck and the body panel. You'll see that every now and then on a restored Mustang. Works well, and very hard to tell.

    5.0 Swap Radiator Hoses

    Good lower hose, and another option for upper hose For the lower hose, you can use a LOWER rad hose for a 1971 Maverick 302, NAPA #NBH 7470, Gates # 20702. This fits really nice when the radiator has a drivers side outlet. Another possibility for an upper hose, if things get in the way...

    65 Convert- New subframes, not impressed. (?)

    It sounds like the uni-body on your car is really in excellent condition. I can't tell you that I've ever jacked up a corner on a convertible (and even a lot of coupes and fastbacks) that didn't have flexure. That is *very* cool. It's also why you probably haven't noticed a difference with...
