Greetings, I'm helping my dad sell a bumper he's been sitting on for several years... the car bumped into a curb years back and he'd been meaning to paint it to match his car and install it, but... well, he's old and doesn't want to. Finally had insurance take care of it a few months ago. It...

I have a 66' with a 408 stroker (based on a 95 roller 351w block), with a T-5z. Posting to the fox forums because the engine / trans are more fox than classic (and the extra traffic doesn't hurt). My stock gauge cluster has always had... issues. The temp gauge and pressure gauge in...

I want to throw a clean serpentine setup on my mustang (66 mustang, 408w... electric fan)... currently has a serpentine setup out of a ~90 bronco, including the power steering pump. The local pepboys made the stock rubber hoses work well (actually did a great job, looks pretty damn good), but...

I'm considering throwing a pile of money at front and rear 12.19" Wilwoods all around (likely 6 piston up front and 4 piston in back). I have Granadas up front and drums in back, which work better than all-drums that were on it 15 years ago, but driving anything remotely modern makes me yearn...

I have a 408 stroker that is getting rebuilt in my 66. It currently has a Weiand Stealth on it, which has been a great intake, but frankly the thing makes more torque than I'm ever going to need and for the purposes of part longevity, tire life, keeping the thing going straight and so forth I...

Need a 7-8qt pan for a 351w in my 66. Current pan is 5 qts, dipstick is on passenger side. Hoping to avoid fitment issues, slightly wary of just buying a fox body pan. Mounts and such are all stock to my knowledge. I may have used 65 motor mounts to drop the engine a bit... 10 years ago...

Last year I replaced a long-running 351w in my 1966 coupe with a Coast High Performance 408. Classic car, but ultimately its an 80s roller motor, and more Fox/SN95s are running around with CHP motors than classics, hence why I'm putting this here (and probably in the classics too, and other...

I'm actually a classic owner but the engine is a roller 351/408 stroker, so i figured I'd ask here. I've been having a pretty annoying issue with my oil pressure sender/adaptors. I transitioned from an older style 351w (early 70s), and tried to re-use my old oil pressure setup. Though I'm not...

Hey all, I'm a classic owner (66') with an old 351w that needs to be replaced, and I'm trying to get a feel for my options. It occurred to me that it might worth getting a roller-type 351w, but I'm not sure which years are 'good'/'best' or what to look for. My goals/situation: I have a 351w...

Its appearing like my 351w is done... i was having a lot of trouble keeping it running and it broke down a few months ago. Brand new oil was almost black, and found lots of shavings on my magnetic drain plug. Took the oil filter off and found a couple large shavings, and also tested them to be...

Just took the 66 to the shop to get the brakes done. Definitely need bleed pads and the rotors may need replacement too. It has ebay-sourced granadas but I'm not sure which year (dad didn't write that down when he bought em 12 years ago). Is there an easy way to tell? Thanks!

Brothers 98 GT 4.6L broke a timing chain, and he was told that's likely to have resulted in piston damage. My dad wants to swap in a new 4.6L. I have a few questions. Few questions: 1) Is it true that a messed up timing chain will have likely resulted in internal component failure? I'm not...

Did a serpentine swap and need a new fan. Figure I might as well go electric since space is somewhat constrained. How many CFM do I need? I'd assume more is better but are there any fans to avoid? Setup as pusher or puller?

As part of a 3G alternator/5.0 serpentine swap on my 66'/351w, I'm planning to add a HD 5.0 water pump. I pulled the water pump from a late 80s... something (I think it was a Tbird, but it mighta been a bronco.. been a while and we were yanking stuff from several different cars). It has a...

Well, I've needed one a while. Took my car out last weekend and it was running pretty well, but overheated. Actually, I'm positive the reason it overheated was the thermostat (it was literally a 2 mile drive and the motor wasn't even hot to the touch but i boiled off damn near all the coolant...

I installed most of the system from my old cadillac into my mustang (everthing except the my sub and its amp). Its a Pioneer head unit, 800W/60WRMSx4 Kenwood amp, powering 2 nice Kenwood 6x9s and 2 nice Polk 6.5" (both rated for 65W RMS), as wlel as some dinky little speakers in the dash...

I have a 3g alternator to install in my 66 (351w). My old alternator and belts are going, and its needed for an eventual stereo swap. That said, i've never even done an alternator swap on my own so need some clear directions :) Thanks.

I was wondering if anyone who has gone through the process of installing sound deadening into their classic could share what they did/learned. First... if anyone knows the proper amount of insulation for a classic (square footage), I'd like to know so I order the right amount. I'm not...

Its been getting worse for a while... now its to the point where it squeals even at a minor turn at slow speed/stop. The fluid is full (which is somehwat surprising considering it has always leaked like mad but for some reason it seems to be holding it better now). Anyway, whats likely...
