    Question about American Muscle.

    Has anyone been able to get a coupon code from the AM guys lately? I PM'ed a couple of them last week, and still no response. I know Stangnet isn't nearly as active as it was 10 years ago. But I didn't think it was dead and forgotten.

    Will it be noticeable?

    Okay...So I'm going to a Granada setup on my '66. I've picked up a pair of Maverick 14x6 steel wheels for the front, but was only able to get a pair of stock Mustang 5-bolt steel wheels (what are these 14x4.5 ?) for the rears. Either way, the Maverick wheels are slightly wider, and will have...

    Need Help Identifying this Ford Tachometer

    1965 Ford Mustang Fastback Gauges 2 Photo 12 The above article doesnt say exactly where the owner got these gauges. It just says "Shelby dash pod with Ford Racing gauges, Autometer gauges." I checked Autometer's website and couldnt find it, and Ford Racing doesnt seem to make it. I'm...

    Sold the '95

    Well, my 1995 GT just started having problem after problem. The past year it was in the garage more than it was on the road. It served me well for 4 years as a car I picked up cheap from a small used car lot that had picked it up at an auction. As much as I loved that car, I just decided my...

    F/S 95 GT 'vert - triple black

    First off, this car is a project car. I just replaced the head gaskets, and it seems the heads actually need to be resurfaced. The easiest option would be to pull the engine and swap in another 5.0; either from an Explorer or new from Ford Racing. Or, like I said, you can just have the heads and...

    Mach 460 Head Unit vs. non-Mach HU (?)

    Anybody know if the head units are the same between a car with the Mach 460 and ones without? My friend's car was just totalled, and I want to swap his head unit with mine since his is in better condition. But he didn't have a Mach system and I do. I'm just wondering if it's still the same...

    Why did they include...?

    Bought some Ford Racing finned aluminum valve covers from Summit. Just wondering why they bother including a breather cap if it's not the right one? Anyone else notice this? I thought I saw a thread about this a while ago, but couldn't find it. I know Summit didn't give me the wrong part...

    No. 2 crossmember removal ?

    I'm trying to get my LCA's off the car, but I can't seem to even budge the bolts that hold in the No. 2 crossmember. I've even tried using an SN95 Subframe connector as a breaker bar. Anyone know any tricks?

    What condition would you honestly say your car is in?

    Just wondering what condition everyone's cars are in. These cars are coming up on 13 & 14 yrs old, and many that I've seen in person definately show their age. But some of you may have had the car since new, and others just put more money into them than the rest of us. So how nice is your...

    5.0 Decals

    Just thought of this after being in the Stangnet decal thread in 5.0 Talk. Does anybody know where I can get a decent size, maybe 6"-7", white 5.0 decal in the same font as the fox fender emblems? I'm hoping someone sells something like these. I just want it for my back windshield...

    Finally clay-bar'd the 'vert. - pics - DUW

    Finally tried the clay bar. The car looks amazing, but I really think the cleaner wax in the kit did more than the clay.:shrug: The clay just seemed like an unnecessary step; it didn't even get dirty until I did the section on the bumper behind the rear wheels. Maybe it's just for people...

    Yet another wheel/tire fit thread...not a common rim though

    Trying to figure out if I'd have clearance here. The rims are 16x7.5 and have a 5.5" backspacing. If I go with the spacers from MustangsPlus(1") I'll have a 4.5" backspace. The car will be sitting on 1" drop springs in the front. Is 4.5" the backspacing I want for a 225-55-16 tire...

    Aamco C4 rebuild or TCI sizzler from Summit?

    Found the Aamco in town today and went over and talked to the guy. Told him I had a '68 C4 that needed to be rebuilt. He asked what kind of rebuild, and I basically just said somewhat mild, stock '68 valve-body with a slightly higher than stock stall(I still don't know yet; don't have a...

    Idler Arm bracket for '65/'66

    About to start doing the V8 suspension swap with Granada brakes. I just need to know if there is a difference between the idler arm mounting bracket between a 6cyl. and a V8 car.:shrug: NPD only lists one, but my Restoration Guide gives 2 different part numbers; 3350-1 = T-code 3351...

    Do you buy the Road Hazard coverage?

    Getting new tires tomorrow, so I was just wondering. Also, what tires are you all running? I usually get them if it's affordable. $14 coverage on a $130 tire isn't bad. I do a lot of commuting, and you never know what's out on those interstates. Also, my neighborhood at school is...

    Harmonic Balancer instal

    My HB is finally going. Ordered an non-sfi Pioneer one and I'm gonna pick it up and put it on tomorrow. My question is should I replace the oil seal even though mine's not leaking? Also, I bought a puller set, but I didn't see an HB installer. What does one look like and how does it...

    Mustangs Mustangs (Ford & P-51) --- central Fl

    Coming up on April 14 at Fantasy of Flight in Polk City, Fl. http://imperialmustangs.org/ I missed it last year, but it's usually a lot of fun. You get a picture of your car and a P-51 taken in the line to get in. Then you get to enjoy the Fords and the air museum. The best part is that...

    Got rid of the Flowmasters...

    Just got my BBK shorties, and MAC catback bolted on. The car sounds SO much better. I was happy with the MAC's on my V6, so I knew they'd sound good on the 5.0. Funny thing is the old catback was making a rattling sound on the passenger side. Since it was just Flowmasters with the stock...

    How do you adjust the throttle cable?!!

    I took my TB off to install some headers. When my roommate put the TB back on he noticed that the throttle cable has too much play. Now there's practically no pedal left. I can't find any info about tightening up the slack. All I found on here was people using spacers on the pedal to...
