    SSBC issue on the pedal

    Thanks The Pivot point is unique for Power v. Standard breaks as the boost actuating arm presents a different geometery to the pedal. I spent the better part of a day trying to get that bracket out because ours did not have holes pre-drilled in the top of the bracket......never did get it...

    Plate-based Nitrous Automation

    The Pitch: I've designed and built a plate-based solid-state PCA (printed circuit assembly) that adds safety and automation capability for the simple 50-150 NOS-shot plate-based carburated systems. We've just completed all the bench-top testing and will be doing physical testing over the...

    SSBC issue on the pedal

    We're putting in a 121-1 kit from SSBC; power disk conversion for no-power drums. Kits working well BUT, there's always a but. It seems our pedal mount bracket, under the dash, was never drilled for a power brake pedal. Meaning, I gotta pull the bracket, drill it, and put it back. Has...

    '64.5 exhaust cutout recommendation

    Evening Gents; Considering a set of electric exhaust cutouts...love to tell you it was for something more than just being loud,.....but you'd know better. In anycase I'm interested in who's put a set on and what you did and didn't like about them. I'm leaning towards a pair that allows...

    little Sticker Shock on Cost of Paint Job

    I paid just over $9k; 4 years ago, Sacramento Ca. I tore the car down myself to just rear axle and welded two legs on the cross brace to hold up the front end. (There were no bolts left to unbolt, no glass, no wiring, no interior....nothing. Zero rust on the car, He stripped it, all body work...

    Painless? Wiring Turn/brake/Horn

    Agreed, great graphic. Looks like troubleshooting should be straight forward. I can't help but think I am going to find a turn signal switch that saw its best days sometime ago. Based on: - Previously working - Then NO brake Lights - Now, all on it's own, both turn...

    Runnin warm

    Possibilities: - as air flow increases due to speed, through the radiator, fans can actually inhibit optimized air flow. (@ 60 MPH the fan is useless considering a 60 mile an hour head wind) - If you are running overdrive on the pulley and/OR have a high flow WP, you may not be spending...

    Painless? Wiring Turn/brake/Horn

    Morning; Horns done. Yesterday though some major weirdness. Key ou, lights off, my entire interior and all for turn signal lights were flashing. Pull the lights to the park position and it goes away. By fiddling with the light switch and opening/closing the doors, I got them to go...

    Painless? Wiring Turn/brake/Horn

    Love the harness..hate the uniqueness of the 641/2 wiring. About 3/4 years ago I restomd'd a 641/2...almost 100% complete. Still had a few things to tie up. Ended up moving to Texas, killed the old PS pump and couldn't cool the car in Houston. Just got it back up and running and had two...

    headers - ceramic coat or not?

    I've run both taped headers (I'll never do that again as long as I live) and ceramic coated (yes inside and out) And regardless of how long they last, less heat is radiated into the engine compartment than straight steel headers. Though I can't quantize the benefit, I have seen it. With...

    Six Gauge Instrument Cluster

    I used JMCs years ago and have been very satisfied. What I did though was buy the least expensive black, el-cheapo one. Then went to a plastics outfit, in Sac by the way and bought some colored plexi that matched my interior. Using the dash as a pattern I cut an insert out and sandwitched it...

    Hi Folks; A few may recall I run a reverse valve body, full manual, non-decompression 1st, 2800 stall C-4 in my 64.5. I'm about 5 foot 8 inches tall and have never been happy with the stock shifter geometry of the early stangs. I have tried several cable shifters and due to the high...

    Subframe Connectors

    I put sub-frame connectors on my 64.5 but before I did I took it to a good frame shop and had it shot to make sure I was not going to make a little more permanent any warped or skewed sub-frames.
