    Rear end length?

    I'm about to make a deal on a fully built 8" but want to verify that it'll fit first. Does anyone know the following lengths on a Mustang II 8"? Backing plate to backing plate? Drum mating surface to drum mating surface?

    Megasquirt DIS

    I'm looking to megasquirt my 5.0 and want to go DIS for a spark rev limiter and an anti lag system for the turbo (that's why I don't want EDIS). I know the Explorer's came with DIS and they have a cam position sensor in the distributor hole but is there also a crank shaft position sensor? I...

    explorer 8.8 ring and pinion

    Does anyone know if the ring and pinion and center section of an 8.8 explorer is the same as a Mustang's 8.8? I know the explorer's came with 3.55, 3.73 and 4.10 gears with t-loc. I've heard that the explorer's were weaker but with 31 spline axles it doesn't make sense to me. I have an 8.8...

    Coil overs?

    I'm getting a little sick of "hot-rod only" II parts. I mean, if they're going to call it a II front end then the parts should fit on a 74-78 Mustang. Anyways, I was looking for a set of coil-overs for my II. I found some from summit in the range of $380 and was considering it, but there...

    2.3 Turbo intercooler plumbinb

    Okay, I know a few of you out there have 2.3T's, can I see what you've done for your intercooler plumbing? I'm trying to figure out the best way to run the least amount of pipe, but each option has me cutting into the front support or running long tubes through the fenders.

    Adjusting clutch pedal travel

    The clutch pedal in my Mustang has a very long travel, sits very high (compared to the brake) and is super easy to press. I have a stage 3 clutch and pressure plate. I was wondering if anyone has moved the clutch pivot point so the lever's ratios were increased on the clutch cable end. If...

    Two trails of rubber from my II, thought I had an open rear.

    As I' getting more comfortable with my 2.3 Turbo Mustang II, I started laying some rubber today working on launch techniques for my first trip to the track this Friday. I noticed that I had 2 paths of rubber, but I was pretty certain that I had an 8" rear with 3.40:1 gears (so says the door...

    Explorer alumnium radiator install pictures

    I've had this radiator tied in with rope for the past few weeks so I could see how well it works. Well, since I've installed it I haven't had to run my electric fan at all. I just finished bolting it in for good and thought I'd share some pictures of this huge radiator. <a...

    Rear end options

    So I got my II back on the road finally, put about 100 miles on it yesterday just driving it around. I'm keeping the boost at 10psi right now until I get a better tranny and rear end. I currently have a RAD-4 (I think that's what it's called) and the 6.xx rear end that came stock with my...

    Desperate need of front sump oil pan

    I'm in desperate need of a front sump 2.3L oil pan. I'm using one from a Pinto now, but the junk yard always punches a hole in them to drain the oil. I had it welded but the torque of tightening and loosening the drain plug broke the weld. Can anyone help?

    Fuel Cell Pictures?

    I'm going to need to either have my stock tank cut open and have baffles welded in, or go with a fuel cell. I was wondering what you guys have installed in terms of a fuel cell? I have an aluminum Taylor battery box mounted in the trunk already. This car will see a lot of track and street...

    Pull motor leave tranny.

    So I've built my 78 Mustang II completely myself, but it was my first manual car. I installed the clutch and tranny after the motor was in. I need to pull the motor to fix some oil pan problems that I tried to fix 2x already without removing the motor. I'd like to avoid removing the...

    Small vibration <1500 RPM's, suspension pop, etc

    So last weekend didn't go as planed at all. I have a 90 GT Convertible with nearly 200k miles on it. The AOD was slipping quite a bit so I found a low millage uses one locally. This last weekend I pulled the motor and transmission, replaced the following: timing set front main seal...

    Pulling motor for oil pan gasket, what am I forgetting?

    My 90 GT's AOD is slipping. I have a replacement to install but figure since my oil pan, front main and rear main seals are leaking I might as well pull the motor and tranny together and fix everything at once. Here's a list of what I plan on replacing, am I forgetting anything? New...

    I hit boost last night for the first time

    So I finally got my 2.3 Turbo running good and was able to get some boost out of it. I took it a little easy because the rings haven't seated yet. I love having a unique Mustang II. Who here has a unique II? I know we have some 4.6 and 5.4L guys here, any other cool things people have...

    Front sump oil pan with rear sump block, dip stick hole?

    So I didn't realize this problem until I went to check my oil. I have a 2.3 Turbo in a 78 Mustang II. Everything except the oil pump and oil pan are from a 86 T-Bird, pan and pump are from a Pinto. I think I see in the casting where the front sump block had the dipstick go. I was...

    AOD slipping, rebuild or buy new?

    So my 196k AOD has finally started slipping when I accelerate hard in a right turn. I assume it's pressure related. Given the mileage on the tranny I have no idea how it's held up this long. Anyways, I was looking into a stock rebuild, or possible a PA Super Streeter...
