    Front end dimensions

    Head over to www.forums.corner-carvers.com and look for a thread titled "65 Mustang Suspension and Chassis Dimensions" started my "Mean 69." The thread is a few years old and the data is from a 65 but the differences between the 65-66 and 67-68 are well documented. The 67-68 data could be...

    Stainless Steel Brake Lines

    You can supposedly do 37* single flares to interface with AN fittings but you have to use tube nuts and sleeves at all flares. I was going to look into that route if I couldn't get proper 45* double flares. The tube nuts and sleeves aren't stainless specific, something like this...

    Stainless Steel Brake Lines

    Yes, definitely make sure the end of the cut tube is square. If not the flare will be lopsided or apparently you can damage your tool. I dressed mine with a bench grinder and hand file before flaring. The problem isn't getting the clamp tight enough. It is that the clamp jaws are not...

    Stainless Steel Brake Lines

    Where did you see sleeves mentioned? You need to use the same flare as the IF tube nut and seat you are connecting to. In the case of all north american cars that means using a 45* double flare. While researching my project I came across some info alluding to being able to getaway with a...

    68 shelby 3-link build

    Why did you orient the PHB body mount vertically? I assume the expected range of motion is within the specs of the rod end but why not orient it horizontally and let the rod end pivot on the bolt?

    Stainless Steel Brake Lines

    Flaring stainless is the hardest part... I ordered the premade kit from http://www.rightstuffdetailing.com/ as a starting point for my car. I am using the MC and rear axle from a 95GT and the SSBC adjustable proportioning valve (which Summit now sells as a store brand for $20 less:mad: ). So i...

    Anybody have the Shelby Drop template & bit?

    I tried that and It didn't work. Most popular hardware store will not have a 17/32" bit. You could also try www.mcmaster.com, not too expensive and quick.

    How much fluid to refill a T5?

    I know the manual says ATF, if your guy is recommending 30wt I would ask why? before I used either one. I am pretty sure the fill is just over 2 qts like CraigMBA said.

    68 Coupe Just Finished

    It looks good either way. The car looks more "serious" without it if that makes any sense.

    Who has Bullitt replica wheels?

    Everything you say makes sense. I was just grasping at straws. If only spacers/adapters were an option. I just need to find somebody that has the right wheels in stock.

    Who has Bullitt replica wheels?

    That is my suspicion as well which is why I am looking for somebody that has the wheels to verify it. I wish I could just find the wheels I wanted in the first place :mad:

    Almost done

    I really like your car, always have. Though I have to ask how does one go about making a film that shaky while standing in one spot on solid ground?

    Before you pat yourself on the back remember there are quite a few fathers out there that just don't want ANYBODY sniffing around their daughters.

    Who has Bullitt replica wheels?

    Please help me with Bullitt replica wheels? Does anybody here have Bullitt replica wheels with the 4.5" backspacing? If you do would you mind helping me out with a little issue I am having with my own project? All I am asking for is some measurements and possibly some digital pics showing the...

    Who makes a stainless steel exhaust kit for classic mustangs?

    (1) In the box are two options polished turndowns for behind the valence and tailpipe extensions for through teh valence. It is up to you or your installer which one you use. (2) It is pretty much intended for longtube headers. If you have anything else you will have to come up with pipes to...
