    Heater Hose Tubes

    Let me know if you are interested in something like this. It uses two aluminum tubes, held apart by a plastic bracket. The A/C valve is optional. http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=529530 I can hook you up with aluminum tubing and formed hoses for half that price. I work for a...

    Tell me I didn't just waste a bunch of time/money!

    My 240V Hobart Handler 180 suggests a 30 Amp circut breaker, so you should be fine.

    Screw-in studs

    Here, it costs $100 to machine heads for screwed in studs. I believe that the stud bosses must be machined also, to accomodate the thickness of the nut on the screw-in studs and to get them perfectly flat since they are castings. Not a job for the cordless craftsman. :(

    O.T. Handicapped parking spaces

    What tickes me off almost as much is some of the a-holes in my little hick Kentucky town. The ones who don't have the Handicap tags (and some that do) just pull up to the fire lane in front of the store and park there. :fuss: Autozone, Movie rental place and the hardware store--ALL THE...

    Deep aluminum trans. pans for C4's

    I replaced my stock pan with an aftermarket one with a drain plug. It also leaked-just a little. Come to find out that the shiney new 3/4" stainless steel bolts I bought for it were 1/16" too long for some holes. You can't tell, because they pull the pan up and torque nicely. :rolleyes:

    Nothing like a late night cam break-in session!

    I even added a chrome Monte Carlo Bar for 12 extra HP (and so I wouldn't have to ever cut out and replace shock towers again). :D It's a Comp Cams XE268H hydraulic cam, not roller. Just roller rockers.

    Heater hose Alternative

    Thanks. It's aluminum 5/8" x 0.040 wall tubing. We use miles of it at work. The difficult part is getting it endformed and bent correctly. I think that it would look good anodized or powder coated.

    Nothing like a late night cam break-in session!

    After almost 1 year of slow progress, measuring all clearances 3 times, checking all torque specs twice, saving for this piece and that piece, My BEAST finially came to life last night! It was beautiful.... I primed the oil pump, primed the carburator, gave it 3 squirts, cranked it for about...

    Heater hose Alternative

    Ever since I got my first mustang 20+ years ago, I hated the way the heater hoses were routed. They lay accross the intake, or attach to the shock tower, or whatever the previous owned dreamed up. Now, since I work for a company that makes hoses for all the automobile manufacturers, I finially...

    Bone Stock or Restomod???

    Two years ago, I asked myself the same thing when I found my M-code Mach 1. IMO, a good restoration and a wicked restomod will probably cost about the same, and be worth about the same when you are done-on this particular car. Stash the motor and tranny and build a stroker. Stash the wheels...

    DP-90

    The local paint guy that use PPG told me this: 1) Use DPLF as a sealer over bare metal 2) Add body filler and K36 or K38 as a sandable primer 3) After bodywork is complete, shoot a reduced coat of DPLF over the entire car 4) Add the topcoat (and clearcoat) within a day or two (1 week...

    Cylinder head plugs/not spark plugs(pic)

    If you don't need the internal threads for attaching brackets, you can probably use a plug from a hardware store. That's what I used on my aftermarket heads at the back of the engine (against the firewall). My heads only came with 2 of the ones you pictured, so I had the same delimna. I...

    Mustangs Plus....

    I searched around a lot and bought my complete suspension kit from Laural Mountain Mustangs http://www.laurelmountainmustang.com/index-800.htm. Got is in 3 days and couldn't be happier. They sell several entire kits or just components. It may be worth a look. Good luck
