    '70 Mach 1 Hood Turn Signals

    Yes the indicators in the dash will still work, unless you decide to disconnect them, but for a state inspection they must work. As for the bulb it should be a 1895 bulb

    power steering pump too hot

    Sounds like your turning the pump to fast, check the pulley sizes. I disagree with the type F fluid, I run the Trick-shift trany fluid in my 65 power steering and it works great and stays cool. I also run this fluid in my C4 trany and Im running a supercharger with NOS. Dont get caught up with...

    No matter what ratio you decide on, You Must build up that 8 inch so it holds up or CABOOM! I have a 8 inch in my stang but installed a Lock Right differential from Powertrax, its a posi unit without the clutches and makes the rear stronger. also buy the hardened axles as these break first...

    New Heads , New Noise

    I too have the Edelbrock RPM heads and I they work great. The rattle you have might be the pushrod guide against the pushrod, as it may need adjusted. remember that when the engine is at idle you have the most vibration, so that said, look for something loose like a header bolt or exhaust as...

    Bolt-on vs. weld-on subframe connectors

    I bought a set of Global West bolt on connectors but came to find out they came loose all the time with higher horse power and you cant get them tight enough with the thin frame rails. So I welded them on and to my surprise the bolt holes served me well as I used them to add a weld to the sides...

If I drive it like a normal person it dont leak but im always on it so it leaks, I do have a PCV valve on valve cover and the other cover has a filter so I guess thats wrong. What year...

    how to adjust high idle Holley (electric choke)

    The high idle screw and bump cam is on the passenger side of carb, behind the electric choke assembly. The screw is a little hard to get to unless you have a aftermarket manifold then its a not to bad. When setting the choke idle start on the highest bump on the cam, set the desired idle speed...

    Replace Rear Frame Rail and torque box

    You should have a mig welder and the skill to use it. I think your talking about the front unibody rail and front torque box. I would pull the motor to get the wieght off the car and to get at the rail, write down any measurements you can and take some pics as well as some good drawings as...

    '66 Won't start on once hot.

    CHECK THAT ALL VACUUM LINE ARE CONNECTED, LIKE THE PCV VALVE. check that after you tried to start it and it shut off that there is not fuel still running into carb, look down the carb bores for fuel running from a stuck or not properly adjusted float.

    Wheel cylinder?

    Dont buy wheel cylinders from the local parts stores like advance or pepboys as they want way to much for them and todays counter person doesnt have a clue on what it is or how to look it up, ok I got that out. Go to a mustang parts store as there only $20.00 and get some one person bleeders...

    302 BOSS BLOCK VS MAN O WAR

    It looks like 10secgoal was right after all:( the bores are shorter, but just because Ford disigned it that way so you dont have to notch it, I would have left the bores longer for more piston skirt support, even with a notch in the bore it would have added more support. But, the question is...

    Back from the dead, a few questions about cam timing

    The first thing I would do is change those darn exhaust manifolds to headers, any cam or manifold you install wont breath like it should and your wasting you money,, Buy Headers! Ok that said, Any stock timing chain from a SBF wont hold up to performance mods. it wil break or strip the gears...
