    Clutch Cable Measurement Question

    Can anyone tell me what the measurement is between the bell housing mount and clutch fork for a stock T-5 setup? I am considering a hydraulic conversion, and the kit says it will fit in place of the the standard stock cable setup. My problem is that my bell housing and T-56 are a non-stock...

    How many '65s left????

    Anybody know how about many original production 1965 Mustangs are still in existence? Tried searching the web, but couldn't find a number. I'm sure there are many just sitting in a field, barn, or old garage (like the one I recently purchased) that haven't been registered in years.

    Dim Light on Autometer gauges?

    Power Steering Heat Exchanger?

    What type of driving conditions would warrant installation of a heat exchanger (cooler) in the power steering system? Seems like it would have to be a lot of yanking & banking to need it.

    Can the odo mileage be "turned back" on a late model?

    Anyone know if the electronic odometer can be "turned back" on a late model 'stang? I was looking at a 2003 GT yesterday and the reading was 80k, but there seemed to be an awful lot of interior wear for just 80k. The wife's 2002 that we traded in a few months back had over 100k of hard...

    Gapping Plugs???

    I recently purchased a set of Autolite XP Xtreme Performance spark plugs. The instructions on the Autolite web site says to check and correct the gap as necessary (just like I've always done with every other plug). The gaps in the new plugs all needed to be adjusted. But then my usual...

    Retractable Hardtop Kit?

    Is the 65-68 fiberglass retractable hardtop kit by Retractables Unlimited still being manufactured? I don't believe it's available through Mustangs Plus or Mustangs Unlimited any longer. Also, I've only seen this put on 65-66; anyone know if it's ever actually been put on a 67-68?
