    Compression question

    I was told that you could pretty much tell what a motor's compression ratio is by the numbers you get during a compression check. Is there a rule of thumb, or formula on this? I'm trying to determine which octane I should be using, got a small amount of clatter under load.

    Flywheels and flexplates

    I am changing back to my 4 speed, the C-4 has seen better days. The 77 was originally a 4 speed, and I never took out the pedal, so it's not going to be hard to change back, or so I thought! The shop that I took my RAD-4 to says that they can get the seals, synchros, and bearings no problem...

    "My friend has a dodge like that"

    I almost dropped the chili I was eating at the local Wendys. That's what the teenage dope said as he aproached my car. I told him it wasn't a Dodge, hoping he would leave me alone. Fat chance. "what is it then, an AMX?" Time for school- "no, it's a '77 mustang" the kid didn't want to go...

    Split Bellhousing

    Has anyone tried to use or make a split bellhousing for the four speed? That idea seems to be the easiest way to go when you are running headers, and need to work on the clutch/pressure plate. Last time I tried to remove mine, I had to move the headers, raise the engine, and other parts just...
