    Power Brake Boosters

    I've replaced or rebuilt everything in my brake system, including sending out my power brake booster & master cylinder to be rebuilt. After testing it, I'm convinced that it's about as good as it's ever going to be. So, I'm now thinking that I should upgrade the booster to get better stopping...

    Pertronix Ignitor III

    I've been spending a crazy amount of time on the web trying to find out about the new Ignotor III which has both a rev limiter and multiple sparks all under the distributor cap. It seems too good to be true & I can't find much on the forums except a few references that it (sometimes) doesn't...

    Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the options that were available to be ordered on a 69/70 Shelby? I especially want to know if a buyer could order a rear sway bar since none of them came stock with one. Thanks
