    67 v8 swap - will tranny bolt up?

    I had the same set up (I6 3spd manual). When I put in the 351w, I kept the same clutch linkage and transmission. Mated up just fine with the bigger bellhousing. But my $.02 is to trade out the tranny while you have it all apart. The 3speed never gave me a problem but with all the extra...

    smoking problem..

    I don't think white smoke is an indication of burning oil. The way I learned it as a kid is: White smoke = Coolant or water in the cylinder Blue smoke = Oil in the cylinder I find it hard to believe that based on a tip from a citizen that the city would send you a notice for repair...

    67 Motor Mounts - Tips/Tricks

    Same thing happened to me. We did the same thing, drilled holes through and slipped a bolt through. Only difference is that we welded in the bolt instead of screwing them down. No problems since.

    Gas door from newer car on 67 fb?

    I've thought of that too. Though I don't like the look of a gas door on the fender like that. I have a coupe and not sure what I'd like to do when the time comes. For you, I'd copy the Eleanor style and put in the recessed one like they did. I think the 67 super snake project thread which...

    Improved Camber during Shelby Drop for a '67

    I've been dealing with this since I bought the car but wasn't an issue until I put new tires on it. The panels are aligned properly (and won't move foreward) and the Upper & Lower Control arms appear to be in the correct position and the strut rods look ok. I don't know if the car has even...

    Improved Camber during Shelby Drop for a '67

    Improved Caster (edited) during Shelby Drop for a '67 I was wondering when you guys did your shelby drop, did you also perform the improved caster mod (setting the UCA 1/8'' back)? I don't have a lot of clearance between the right tire and the front of the wheel well and was thinking this...

    JME gauge cluster and factory cluster

    I took a look. I don't like the finish on the one on the webpage. I'm thinking of making my interior into the deluxe or shelby interior so am looking for a nice brushed aluminum one. It appeard that they only sell that polished aluminum. I was thinking that I could get the parts and then...

    JME gauge cluster and factory cluster

    Mmmm, ya. (Said like Lumbergh) No, that wouldn't be my best option. There's a reason why I sit behind a desk and don't make a living doing cool stuff like mustang overhauls.

    JME gauge cluster and factory cluster

    Anyone know of an alternative to JME? I've been talking to a company here in Georgia (Not sure if I'm allowed to drop the name) that'll make them for you. A bit cheaper than JME and the same look from the outside. Not as pretty on the back-side though. I've seen kits but looking for a...

    New Joiner

    It does have a little bigger cam in it. Sadly, I don't remember the specifics, it was a few years ago.

    fuel gauge

    I was going to say to check the tank fuel float, it probably broke. And if you're having trouble putting gas in the tank I'm guessing it's time to remove and clean out the tank anyway.

    New Joiner

    Hey ya'll - I've been looking around on the web and found you guys a while back. I'm starting some mods on my car and wanted to drop in to research rear gears. So after reading it all I'm looking for some thoughts. My Car: 67 Coupe 351w, edelbrock performer heads, intake manifold, 650cfm...
