    Ticking, smoking

    Yeah the headers do look like they have a cherry red tint, could just be my eyes though. I cant drive the car right now since its not registered and wont be for another month or two, so all I can do is idle it :( should also mention that when I first bought the car, the wires on it were...

    Ticking, smoking

    The smoke went away, howeve the ticking did not. Its pretty damn loud, loud enough to hear it standing 5-10 feet away. Like I said its coming from the passenger side of the 302, and louder underneath. Could this be rod knock? :damnit: And like I said now It wont rev past 3 grand, it just...

    Ticking, smoking

    Hey guys I need your help. I just got a set of Summit racing headers and their headerback exhaust. I finally started the car tonight, and I noticed that the ticking I heard before seems a little louder. Also, its smoking when you give it gas. And, its not revving past 3,000 rpm. Anything...

    Powersteering drop bracket install?

    I am so pissed. I got nothing. I have no idea where that is. I thought I found it, undid the two bolts, and then realized it was the arm for the parking brake unit. Wtf is it? Is there a diagram I can look at it? The only thing else that I see is this huge box at the end of the steering...

    Headers and powersteering drop bracket

    Dammit, I wish I had checked this thread earlier. I ordered the part for 15 flat from Autozone for the same exact peice, should be here within a few days. I know it may have come off as me fully blaming Summit, when in turn I know it was my fault. I do however wish they had mentioned it, either...

    Headers and powersteering drop bracket

    The headers are the cheapest ones Summit carries, their own brand. Returning them is not an option now as I have the passenger side on, and it got scratched in the process :notnice: If anyone has put headers on a 73, you will know what I'm talking about. The driver's side is going to be such...

    Headers and powersteering drop bracket

    Let me start off by saying I am incredibly unbelveibly pissed at Summit Racing. Personally I will NEVER order from them again. They seem unwilling to help, and very uninforming. I ordered a headerback exhaust last week. When it came, it didnt match up to my headers. They never told me it...

    Couple questions

    Hey guys, I got a couple quick questions. I ordered a Summit Racing exhaust for my 73, and went to put it on tonight. The flange on the new exhaust is gigantic, over 4 inches. Compared to the stock headers, it literally goes over the header, in no way shape or form is this exhaust going to...

    1973 Mustang help, no start

    Yeah, I havnt actully checked because It is catching for a second, then it just dies. Yes, it did smoke when I bought it, but only a tiny bit, and went away after a few seconds. I'm actully pretty sure its flooded, because I pulled a plug and it was black, wet, and reeked of gas. These plugs...

    1973 Mustang help, no start

    Hey guys, I'm new to Mustangs. I recently purchased a 1973 convertible from a guy who had it sitting on his lawn for a couple years. Every day I drove by his house, and one day I decided to ring his doorbell and ask if he wanted to sell it. I got it for 3 grand. Basically, it needs a...
