    4 Wheel Disc Brake Install

    I was given a Wildwood 4 wheel dsic brake setup for my 65. Currently drum. Anyone have a ballpark amount that a shop would charge to install. It is supposed to be complete with everything you need to bolt it right up. I'm just not that mechanically inclined to do something like this.

    holley carb

    I got a used holley street avenger 570 from a buddy & was wondering I can use my fuel bowls from the 650 double pumper? It was on the stang I recently bought & was rebuilt, so I thought I would use some of the parts of the double pumper to rebuild the street avenger.

    Stang Cuts out when going around a turn

    I picked up a stang with a double pumper on it & idles great, but I have noticed when I go around a turn the car cuts out for a split second. From what I recall it has never happened going straight, only during a turn. It doesn't happen at every turn though. No more than a 2-3 times during each...

    Lowering Block Problem

    The P.O. lowered my Stang with lowering blocks. If I wanted to go back to the original stance, can I just jack up the rear & remove them? Not sure if anything else needs to be done or added.
