SOLD SOLD

Hi all, I used to be an active member of the forum here back in the 2001-2005 time frame. I have have this car for over 9 years. I don't really need the money, but I just don't drive the car anymore and would like to see it go to a good home. This car is a great driver, it was my daily driver...

double post.... Also, the Holley DP is supposed to be pretty hard on gas, if it matters.

For the time it takes to do and the cost of gaskets, I wouldn't bother until you do the cam/heads anyways. You will have to pull the intake to do the cam, so you might as well wait. If the motor doesn't see 4500+ rpms currently, then there isn't a huge advantage. Also, I have heard the...

To answer the question-- it's hard to say. You will lose compression since the heads you have are 54cc and the gt40p are about 60cc, but they out flow the 66 heads. http://www.jason.fletcher.net/tech/flowdata/castiron.htm http://www.stangpro.com/html/articles/gt40p_files/gt40p1.htm...

Wouldn't a 1967 MC be set up for either drum/drum or disc/drum? You might want to try a MC made for disc/disc.

Sounds like clutch chatter. Was the flywheel resurfaced when you replaced the clutch? Did you put thread sealer on the crank/flywheel bolts?

They are expensive and inefficient. Water/alky injection works pretty good for turbo setup, and is cheap and easy. Good idea, but just not practical--sorry.

I got rid of my original 2 chambers. They sounded awesome, but they were really loud. I went with the Dynomax super turbos-- they are too quiet and sound wimpy at idle. Wish I just left the flows on... A friend of mine has 50 deltas on his 69-- they sound really good.

I'd rather switch to all late model stuff (fork and pivot) anyways. It looks like the $225 kit come with a braided line. They aren't that expensive for a short section like that, at least I don't think they are.

I thought about it, and I still may do it. At this point I still have the old z-bar setup, so I would need to get the late model fork and pivot first. If I have the tranny out, I'd probably make my own bracket. Still a decent deal from the looks of it though.

You didn't say what tranny you are running. Anyways, I saw this yesterday-- cheaper than the JMC kit http://raeracing.com/catalog/

Man, where do you find all these fastbacks? Didn't you have another one before your current project?

If if was a black 94-95, I'd consider it (plus cash of course). Good luck. This post may get locked.

My firewall flexes quite a bit when applying the brakes. When looking at those power brake conversions, you will notice that many come with a reinforcement plate.

Got mine from the junkyard. They cleaned up really nicely.

Rumor has it that 89 (probably any late 80s - early 90s) Crown Vic rear discs bolt right up to a small bearing 8" or 9" rear end. It looks to be about the same as the explorer setup, but with the small bearing pattern. I've seen this info on 2 other forums now, so I'd look into it.

8"

I can only guess that you have a 65 by your username. Next time give a little more background info. anyway, for a 65 with a stock 8", you will need 2.5" U bolts. You could have just measured what you got to be sure. Some parts stores do carry them-- I saw some at pep boys.

Pretty sure all the 8.8s out there are a few inches wider than a stock 65 rear. 65-66 rear is 57.25" and the 8.8's are 59"+. I haven't measured too many myself though. Also, the fox mustang ones are 4 lug. The truck/suv rears have offset pinions. I wanted to do the 8.8, but the 9" was so...
