Somebody has to have a solution based more on information than money, I hardly ever find them until after i do something, but I need to research this some more before my wife notices over 2k missing....not ready...

    Mustang 2 Front End Questions.

    Yea I am ready to pull the motor and tranny, my cam is too big, sucks too much gas too. Is this not something I can go to a salvage yard and get? There is a local yard that sells cars by the lb for 25 cents, so a gutted mustang 2 or appropriate car should not cost much, but I don`t know what...

    Mustang 2 Front End Questions.

    I`m driving my beast to a car show Saturday morning, and realize...it drives like crap. Being as everything up front is new and the alignment is good, it has me thinking it may be upgrade time. I hear mustang 2 conversions are cost effective and do provide a better quality driving experience...

    How to keep parking lights on when headlights are on?

    No offense to anyone here, but I been lurking here for years, if Tim65GT tells you something, you can take it to the bank, it`ll work. He has probably forgotten more than I`ll ever know....LOL

    Old Wiring To New, Neutral Safety Switch

    I`m no expert, but I tried to bypass mine several different ways and it never worked out. It was easier to just hook it up than to bypass it. You can check your switch using a 14.4 volt cordless battery, run 1 wire into one side of switch from the battery, and put a test light on the other...

    Welcome to the site, I hope you find these forums as helpful as I do. As far as your car goes, just ebay a few and you`ll know what you got, versus what your paying. Those funky fender flares on back need a chainsaw put to em though....

    Brake Proportioning Valve

    You don`t center the valve, it does it automatically if its working correctly. And it should be about 60 to 70% up front, the rest in back. 50/50 setting would be a wreck in a hard corner. I had to put a residual pressure valve in line to my back drum brakes to get them to work right. this link...

    Engine Need A Little Help

    Ok after studying E-85 on wiki I found its 94 to 96 octane, which is good for hi end motors designed to run E-85, but for your average flex-fuel vehicle, you lose about 20% or more gas mileage running it. I have a built 302 motor with 10 to 1 compression, what equipment has to be messed with...

    Engine Need A Little Help

    I hate to ask this but I Chevy Silverado is a Flex Fuel truck. I`ve never ran flex fuel, is it better for the truck? I gathered from your thread that the octane is higher on E-85 which would be an improvement I think.

    65 Fastback Spoiler Question

    My full decklid is pretty sweet, end caps fit nice, skim coat of filler on one edge of one of them and they fit good. I agree with zookeeper, whole decklid is much better.

    65 Fastback Spoiler Question

    A good bodyman told me that a thin layer of bondo between the metal and the fiberglass is the key to it not cracking down the road. I wouldn`t even repeat this info if I didn`t know the guys work is rock solid every time. I`ve never heard anything bad about anything made by Mustangs to Fear...

    Which Wiring Harness To Use...

    I had an AA classic update kit, the instructions were not very clear, I sent it back. I`ll be using reproduction wiring on mine just for simplicity's sake.

    Kelsey Hayes Disc Vs Pbr With Granda Spindles

    I have the Granada conversion and will be going a different route when I can afford it. It doesn`t stop much better than the drums did, and it does not drive as well as it should either.
