RE Thanks Guys. I agree that i should probably stick with the 280H rather than the 292H. And also a pair of AFR 185cc heads. Now with the intake manifold, should i go with a single plane or dual plane intake? Whats everyone else running?

Hey guys, I have a 1965 Mustang with a 351W and T5 that im looking to put some more power into. Heres the current setup, its basically setup just for cruising now, but would love to be anywhere from 375-400's hp, without completely killing the driveability. 1988 351W/ Refurbished, not even...

Im putting Bullit 17X8 Wheels on my 1965 Mustang, I plan on running 225/45/17 in front because i have 2" drop spindles, and running 245/45/17 in rear. Does anyone know what backing spacing I will need? Or how i can find the proper backspacing, also hav rear drum with an 8", which will soon be an...

Hey guys,i recently did a coil over front suspension, with rack and pinion steering from Hoffman group on my 65 mustang. We had nothing but problems with this kit, and now are having problems after having dropped the motor in it, and driving it. Once you start off driving it, it is fine, but it...

Alright sounds good, thanks alot for the post. But one more thing, do you know what cars have that transmission in them, because i plan on buying a used one after i pull it out of a car, or if someone had one laying around? Thanks

I have a 65 stang with a 1988 351W, and was wondering if anyone could tell me what model or year 5 speed manual transmission, can be a direct bolt onto a 351W?? Currently running an fmx tranny, and it just aint working for me. thanks

Hey Guys, im currently running a 8 inch with 3.55 gears. Want to make it posi and move to 373 gears. I know that if i get a 94 explorer rearend, then i can cut off the spring perches, and move them however much is needed, and then it can only take late model wheels? Is this correct? I thought...

I have a 8 inch rear end in my 65 stang. it currently has 3.55 gears, But first of all i was wondering if someone could tell me the main difference between a 8 inch and a 8.8 inch rearend? Bc the rear end we have, came with the car when we bought it 5 years ago,and have had engine, tranny, front...

I currently am running a 8.8 w/ 3.55 gears in my 65 stang with a 351W, and someone mentioned that you could put a cobra IRS rearend in a 65, but being 4 inches longer than the overall housing length, you would have to have alot bigger flange for it to clear? Is that a bunch of nonsense or is it...

But i problably shouldnt have mentioned all that, bc its not just wen your driving it does it in park so there is so no way it could be the front end

RE Hoffman Group, absolute worst reviews, id have to go with a negative number just to rate them. We didnt get half the parts in the package, then had to wait and wait for the parts to come, and ended up not being the right parts. And they had terrible instructions with no measurements, and the...

RE It drives fine until you reach about 45 mph, or if you rev it to around that rpm. We dont have a tach tho so its hard to tell you what its doin it around. And its not the steering column, its the whole car, i mean the whole car shakes, but once you get to around 60 it disappears. So thats...

I have a 65 mustang with a 351W, and a coil over front suspension with rack and pinion steering. We just had our fmx tranny completely rebuilt with a shift kit, new bands, clutches, and a 2400 TCI Breakaway TC, flywheel, and also replaced the harmonic balancer on the motor. We did all this...

Really, are the shackles regular and not the extended ones. And are the lake wood shocks adjustable? Also is your setup for daily driving, and is it so firm that its uncomfortable, bc i also dont want it how it is now, really bouncy and annoying to sit in the backseat

Really? Can you post some pictures so i can see it? What kind of rear suspension do you have, or is it just lowered 1"???

What would everyone support then, if nobody likes the rear air shocks? Do you think the coilover is the best? Or what does everyone else have on their stangs. I have a pair of gas shocks on the back of my 65 stang, it your right, it is alot bouncy especially when your on windy roads, and makes...

Re-edited the post, if you have any ideas let me no

So do you think just going to 225/60/15 is the best thing to do?

Ya sorry bout that, it was supposed to be a 4 not a three. So do you think that putting shackles on it would make a difference at all? And planning on going with 235/60/15 rear tires, but if i go with that option, should i go to longer rear shackles to have a better clearance?

I currently have the original 3 leaf springs on, rear sway bar, and urithane bushings. We also have a pair of old gas shocks on, that we installed by a friend that he had laying around. The car has a 351W, and 3.55 Rear end wit FMX tranny, and its a daily driven car. We want to upgrade the rear...
