    Offbeat project: 1966 Coupe

    I am not going to start a build log here(since I already have one over on the vintage mustang forums), but thought I would show what I am working on these days: Its a 2012 Mustang V6...chosen because it fits between the stock shock towers, makes more power and torque than the 289(even...

    86 mustang...can I use the Walbro GSS 341 pump?

    I know the correct pump is listed as the GSS 340...the only difference I can see between the two is the inlet is a slightly different offset...but not having done this yet on a mustang I dont know how critical the inlet spacing is...on my neon for instance it was critical enough that I couldnt...

    adjustable UCAs? possible?

    alright, we all know how much the stock setup(and the stock based setup) sucks for performance applications...mainly because it can slip out of alignment under aggresive driving...those control arm teeth just dont seem the best setup. I have a Heidts kit with tubular UCAs...nice enough setup...

    Anyone use a pull-type slave on a hydraulic clutch setup?

    just curious is all, I have a t-45 and I doubt the T5 bracket will fit to use a push type slave....if i have to make a bracket anyway, I would prefer a pull-type slave as long as it does not interfere with anything, just curious why no one uses them...is it simply because the push type bracket...
