    Mustang II V6 conversion to V8 HO and T5 problems and solutions

    I think mine is 1/2" NPT threads. But, you can get a brass 1/2 x 3/8 reducing bushing at most hardware stores if it needs to be 3/8".

    1978 Mustang II Headliner Install

    That's how mine is attached at the hatch opening as well. I have a short section where the glue has lifted and need to glue it back in place.

    Is this a fuel filter?

    Yes, I would leave it in place and not try to remove it. At least it is removing some of the vapor that could cause a vapor lock.

    Is this a fuel filter?

    The part in your photo is not a fuel filter, it is part of the fuel vapor return (9G271). The fuel filter originally would have been threaded into the carb, item 9155 in the photo below. It may have been left off when the Weber carb was installed or replaced with one like shown in above posts...

    Finished welding the rotten soup can yesterday after changing out the argon bottle. Then coated the outside with POR-15.

    The POR-15 was cured good this morning, so I started TIG brazing the new bottom on the canister. It was going good till I ran out of argon and can't get more till Monday. It will have to wait till then.

    Progress Thread Cobra II Resurrection

    Well, I took a shot at welding up the holes in the rotten coffee can. Looking OK so far, but I still need to weld the new bottom in. I welded the holes with TIG brazing with the machine set on AC with the balance set to cleaning and using silicon bronze wire. I still melted thru in a few areas...

    Progress Thread Cobra II Resurrection

    The can is 4-1/4" outside diameter x 3-1/2" tall. I suppose I could find something similar at the grocery, but it needs to fit the bracket and still needs the correct size hole drilled with a formed lip for the O-ring seal. The one I posted above has a mounting bracket that may work with the...

    I made an attempt to repair my rotted out A/C vacuum canister, but I think it's too far gone. I cut and fitted a piece of 16 gauge sheet that I had available to replace the bottom, then removed the mounting bracket and the rusted out bottom: Then I noticed holes in the top and around the...

    Looks like the '71-'73 canister is the same, but $101 plus shipping is still too steep. https://www.classicautoair.com/shop/oem-parts/controls-oem-parts/71-73-mustang-cougar-a-c-vacuum-canister-reservoir/?gQT=2

    Progress Thread Cobra II Resurrection

    Haven't got much done the last couple of weeks due to travel. I did get a few hours today, so I removed the motor mount brackets, sand blasted and primed them. Then I removed the air conditioner vacuum canister in the passenger fenderwell and sandblasted it. It was looking good...

    Suspension Mustang 2 motor mount

    Since you are swapping in a V8, you will also need the oil pan and pickup tube for a Mustang II, and the Mustang II bell housing, flex plate and torque converter (if using and automatic) or Mustang II flywheel, clutch/pressure plate and bell housing (if using manual trans). A donor car is the...
