    Mark VII rear end same as the fox?

    I've been looking at putting a new rear end in my 67. I can find an 8.8 out of a Mark VII much easier and cheaper plus they already have discs on them. Anyone know if this could work? All I have seen so far is that maybe its an inch and a half longer, and maybe the pumpkin is offset? Someone...

    How much power can a 7.5 take?

    I need a new axle for my 67, I want to put an 8.8 in but being a college student I dont have that kind of money. How much power will a 7.5 take? I can get a cheap one with discs on it, I dont plan on doing any racing, its going behind a very mildly modded 289 with a 92 t5 in it. Let me know thanks.

    8.8 in my 67

    I will probably put mustang steves 13'' disc conversion in the future. So I'm guessing I'll go with the sn95 setup. I do like the prices of the fox setup better however.

    8.8 in my 67

    I'm thinking about seeing if I can get a SN95 8.8 cheap since they already have discs on them and will fit my bullit wheels without spacers. College budget is a little tight these days. I dont know much about brake setups, so can i just use a proportioning valve with my existing m/c or do you...

    8.8 in my 67

    Red5oh the car looks great so far. Your install went in beautifully. I do have a couple of questions for you, are you putting discs on the rear? I think you can adapt cobra discs back there but im not sure, I was hoping you would know. Also where did you get your spring perches? (i'm sure my...

    8.8 in my 67

    Don't worry this is not another thread asking if it can be done. I would rather not weld anything to the frame of my car. Couldnt I just cut/grind everything off my axle housing and weld a set of leaf spring mounts to the 8.8? I love the idea of discs and a locker back there since I can get an...

    clutch pedal?

    I just got my clutch pedal setup in the mail. I've never had one out of a car before so I dont know if theres something wrong with mine or not. When I press the clutch pedal in it snaps to the floor and takes some muscle to get back to the original position. Is this normal or did the guy screw...
