    spring perch question

    Before my MII install I had the shelby drop and 1/2 coil cut off 620 springs. I had to zip tie the tops of the spings so they would not come bouncing out of my fenders when I jacked the car up. I had planned to install limiting straps as an extra per-caution (just incase I had to jump an...

    Problem with my Welder

    It wasnt very clear in your post, Did you try to pull the wire out from the tip end or back at the welder? You can pull the contact tip off and you will be able to yank on the wire from the tip end, Or, you can pull the wire back out from where the spool is. If you've pulled from both ends...

    what determines the correct thermostat for your engine?

    Most likely your radiator is not sized correctly to cool your 331. Another option is the T-stat is mislabeled or malfunctioning. It goes back to what I said in my previous post. If you have an infinitely large radiator your engine will run at T-stat temp always. Since none of us have...

    what determines the correct thermostat for your engine?

    Maximum temperature is a function of engine power output, radiator size, and ram air velocity (among some other things like timing). If a car had infinite cooling capacity (uberly large radiator) the engine would run at T-stat temp (+/- a degree or 2) always.

    Basically done, but need some consumer advice

    I think as long as you are upfront about what parts are not included (which you are doing), how much these parts will approximately cost (done), and provide a part number list and maybe even cheepest vender (also sorta done) that would probably be the best route to go. It makes zero sense to...

    Economical Rear Sump Pan

    Hey guys, So my Heidts MII setup came this week -- Looks great. I am trying to find a rear sump pan but all I can seem to find are high dollar ultra large capacity oil pans. What have others with MII used? I would be happy with just a regular stamped steel rear sump pan. Will the rear...

    1 wire alt

    The only hookup for your one wire Alt is a fairly heavy gauge wire from the stud on the Alternator to the positive stud on the Battery. It is grounded through the engine block and internally regulated. The other original wires can be removed/isolated.

    67 hood: repro vs original tooling?

    Ha! Its actually a little more precision than I made it sound. i.e. the hood wasn't slammed over the stuff but the basic concept is there.

    67 hood: repro vs original tooling?

    My repo hood fit liek a dream. I got it from mustangs unlimited for 160 bucks. My painter thought I payed 300-400+ for it just due to the quality of the fit and guage of metal that was used. It only took slight modification for it to be perfect. It was jus ta hair "flatter" than the curves on...
