While I do not know which headers will fit your car - I can tell you what I did with a similar setup. I installed the same RC motorsports front suspension kit in a 68 convertible with a 351W and hooker long tube headers and also had a steering rod clearing problem. I cut and rotated the 3rd back...

Overall the 351W-400HP engine that I purchased has performed very well. For those considering purchasing an engine from the enginefactory I'm providing my experience with minor problems that have occurred in hope of helping you avoid the problems. First, the Carter electric fuel pump was...

glad we have a choice I'm very happy with the Lentech AOD with 9.5 inch, higher stall speed torque converter. The 351 gets into the power band so fast.

I've had good, and very quiet performance, using a mallory comp pump model 110 for about 3000 miles so far. I originally had the holley red pump, but replaced it after 1 month because of the noise and limited fuel flow at high rpm. Kent...

lentech AOD with non-lockup, 9.5 inch torque converter, 2500 rpm stall, 3.70 gears, 351W with edelbrock performer rpm package at about 400 hp equals 10 mpg city, 15 mpg highway. Kent

valve body pressure is important I have the lentech street terminator AOD. As others have said, the electric switch prevents OD from engaging. I'm confused on the comment about not worrying about the valve body pressure. The manual specifies that the tv cable be set so that the pressure is 2...

2 comments If the shifts are late and firm, the cable is too tight. If you are getting early and sloppy shifts plus a harsh downshift from OD, the cable is too loose. Also, you need check that the lever on the carburator is the correct length - not all are. With the correct pressure at...

Caution on noise from Holley Red From personal experience: The Holley Red is noticeably LOUD. I switched to a Mallory Comp Pump 110 series ( a 70 series would be fine for your car I think) and it operates with no noticeable noise from inside the car. 2100 miles without a problem so far...

I have that brake master cylinder My 68 started out with manual drum brakes. It now has 4 wheel disc. I put in a power brake booster/mc from rod & custom motorsports that could be used with the original manual pedal. I found it difficult to adjust, had no road feel and switched to the jmc...

68 conv with X crossover I have the 2 1/2 inch pipe X crossover Magnaflow system in a 68 mustang convertible with an AOD and long tube headers. The seat platform plate is lowered and modified. It may not be pretty but it works. The front edge of the of the seat platform plate is the low...

you have a choice If you use the aftermarket or later year shifter designed to work with the AOD you don't have to switch the position of the shift lever, if you want to retain the original c4 stock shifter, then you make the switch. For me, the stock c4 shifter + shift lever on AOD pointing...

TV linkage The TV linkage points down and is pulled to the rear of the car. I used the Lokar TV cable and brackets set. The bracket that positions the cable behind the TV lever is attached by a transmission pan bolt. Ron Morris sells a shift lever conversion kit and a TV cable...

confirmation - it points up Edbert, On my 68 the AOD shift lever points up (the tv cable lever points down). The stock shifter is connected to the AOD with a windsor-fox rod (i don't think windsor-fox is in business anymore & it took 3 months for the order to arrive 2 years ago). The...

Vote - Match exterior My preference is to match the painted interior surfaces with the exterior color. http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc213/carkent/IMG_0696.jpg Kent

fuel pump placement I put a mallory comp 170 directly in front of the gas tank, positioned to the passenger side of the fuel outlet. A 6" x 1" x 1/8" flat bar with two bolts welded to it is on the trunk side, a matching angle iron piece with two holes drilled for the bolts from the top is...

Color choice S-Car-Go, The color is saphire blue pearl. It has both white and light blue flake. It is a 2005 Honda B517P color. The painter used PPG paint. So far, the first thing people comment on when seeing the car is the paint. It would have been nice to have thought of the...

3" Magnaflow 68GT500KR_Vert, Are you planning on running the 3" pipes out the rear? My 2 1/2" pipes are a tight fit between the gas tank and leaf springs. I don't think that the 3" pipes would have fit without some vibration induced clanging against body parts. Just a thought - good...

conv seat brace The standard plate the bolts between the seat supports did not fit with the exhaust in place. I fabricated a brace that fit under the exhaust and welded to the subframe conectors as well. I can post a picture later but I'm leaving on a trip tomorrow morning. In summary, you...

MII Yes. It's a rod and custom coil over unit with 2" drop spindles. I like it, espically the rack & pinion steering, space for long tube headers and adjustable ride height. Kent
