    need ideas for motor combo

    Yeah I have thought that I might have screwed up on the gearing but I had quite a different plan for the car when I bought the rear. I am going to try the 3.25s when I get it going an see... and if I need to change them I will. It stinks but it happens. As far as spending the money to go...

    need ideas for motor combo

    high enough to not be too concerned about cost (since I will probably have this car for the rest of my life) but at the same time I don't want to make stupid purchases or blow money for no reason. so basically just getting ideas and using everyone elses heads to supliment mine. :nice:

    need ideas for motor combo

    that looks like a very nice combo. Are you going FAST type engine management or mass air? Does anyone know if the track heat intake will fit under a gt350 hood in a 65? This is where I am running into the majority of my problems. I really hate the idea of buying a ported cobra or gt40...

    TFS Street Heat intake gt350 hood?

    they don't breath enough for the power level I am wanting. I guess I could get a cobra intake and have it cut and ported but it just seems a waste of money to me if I can buy something that flows better than the cobra from the start.

    TFS Street Heat intake gt350 hood?

    Anyone using a street heat intake with efi conversion under a gt350 hood in a 65 - 66? Will it fit? I would like to buy a decent intake rather than the garbage cobra or gt40 or even performer 5.0 I have been told will fit. thanks

    65 fastback efi performance efi intake?

    Thanks for the replies. I have quite a while to figure this out but I like to have a good idea going in what I will need because I hate buying parts more than once. I agree that perhaps I have talked to the wrong people but I know full well that this is not a "cheap" hobby. However, with...

    65 fastback efi performance efi intake?

    Who would have thought I would have some many problems figuring out a motor for this thing? I want boost!...but I want it to fit. I want to convert my 65 to 331 with fuel injection but I don't know what intake will fit under the gt350 hood. I oringinally wanted a turbo but there is no room...

    My 65 Mustang "Screaming Horse"

    so you have a vic jr and a paxton carbed charger? (sorry I cannot see pics at work). If so, how did you get it all to fit under the hood? I am wanting to run a very similar setup on my fastback and being told it will not fit under my gt350 hood. thanks

    Couple questions for anyone with experience in this: I am planning on running a lot of hp and I want to shift gears again...so the auto is out. I looked into swapping out my auto for a tremec tko 600 and read something on the internet that scared the hell out of me. Do I really have to...

    proper break in period

    If it has a roller cam, and I would imagine it does, the rings will seat within a few minutes and once that is done take it to the track and flog the bajesus out of it.
