    Fastest vintage stang?

    The magazine tests and shootouts usually put the '71 Boss 351 as being the fastest of the early mustangs. Even edges out the Boss 429. _____________________________________________________ 70 Mach 1 351c FMX

    1969 fastback question.

    I saw a 70 Fastback at a show last weekend with a 429 Cobra Jet in it. The plugs looked like a real pain in the butt to change. I was looking at it trying to figure out how to even get a couple of them out. There is no room at all. Good luck if you get it. :shrug:

    Could you possibly use a torpedo style space heater and make an oven out of sheetmetal that the heater could blow into. Just an idea. ______________________________________ 70 Mach 1 351c FMX

    wherer is my trans fluid leaking from?

    Another thing to check is the speedometer cable. Pull it out and check the o-ring seal. Also check cable itself to make sure there are no cuts or breaks in it near where it goes into transmission. _______________________________________________ 70 Mach 1 351c FMX

    holley cfm formula?

    That formula gives you carburetor size for best throttle response, fuel mileage and driveability. On my previous 70 Mach 1, I used a Carter 625 and loved the way it made my car perform. It had a Holley 600 on it but changing to the Carter made a big difference in the way it ran. I am planning...

    FMX to C6....Final Decision

    The C-6 should be a direct swap for the FMX. I just changed from a C-4 to FMX and had to change everything. I have a small block C-6 but it needs rebuilt and I found a good FMX for $100 so I put the FMX in my car. I found out that the C-6 and FMX are the same length so driveshaft used is the...

    351c Valley Pan

    What is the purpose of the valley pan under the intake manifold on the 351c engines? Does it have to be used or can it be deleted and just a gasket set used in it's place. Thanks.

    Wheel Questions???

    Bolt pattern is 5 x 4 1/2" circle. Not totally sure on backspacing but should be about 4" to 4 1/4".

    O.K. forget fixing the FMX. Will a C4 bolt up the same?

    I bought my car with a bad C-4 in it. The C-4 can't handle a cleveland in stock form. It has to be built up inside. THen they will handle about 400 to 450 horsepower reliably. The one advantage is that the C-4 is smaller and lighter with less internal mass to turn so there is a gain in rear...
