    1966 Mustang coupe restomod

    I've had it for almost 10 years now and started the rebuild. Engine was rebuilt winter of 2009 and the body work/paint was done in 2008. Car is in good shape. When I originally did the body/engine, I wanted a dual quad carb setup .. however over the winter, I decided to go with a single 4...

    Swapped Dual Quad for a Quick Fuel Carb setup - problems

    Over the weekend I switched out a dual quad high rise carb setup for a single quick fuel carb with edlebrock intake. I don't know what I did, but I can't get the car to run correctly. Initially after the swap, the car would run like crap at 2,000 rpm, but when it went under that, it died. I...

    Opinions for an intake/carb combo

    Opinions for an intake/carb combo

    I had my motor rebuilt to a 348 stroker over the winter. I was/am stubborn as I have a high rise dual quad setup on it and wanted to keep that. After driving it for the season, I've started to waiver on the setup and then this morning I mention to my wife that I'm thinking about changing the...

    66 mustang Radiator, fan, harmonic balancer, battery tray, outside mirrors,

    I upgraded the motor, so decided to replace the stock radiator with an aluminum one and a new fan / fan extention. All is in good shape! The guy that had my car before me put on a harmonic balancer (can tell it's after market) ... but it was the wrong weight. The "right" one I bought is a...

    Engine Compartment Help

    I'm looking for opinions. Here are pictures of my current engine compartment ... I want to clean it up. I am not a person that would be willing to spend hours cleaning a bunch of chrome ... but I want it to look a lot nicer. Suggestions? Thanks!

    1 of 5 Qt of Tranny Fluid was Dexron - what does it mean?

    I had a leaking transmission pan, so bought a new pan, new gasket and installed everything last night. I had also bought 5qt of Type F transmission fluid ... or I thought I did (grabbed them all off the row on the shelf). I put in the first quart and realized that it was Dexron. The rest...

    Woe is me - Engine Trouble

    After being in a good autobody shop for 3 months and a crappy one for over a year, I got my car back. Before the body shop, bought new a 302 bored '40 over. I ran it with a single four barrel carb for three years, then decided I liked the look and installed a dual quad carb setup with two...

    Bumper Guards ... need them?

    Do you "need" the bumper guards installed to mount the bumpers? If not, does anyone have a picture of a 66 (or close) that does not have the bumper guards. I think it may look neat without, but trying to picture it and my imagination isn't that great. Thanks!

    Back from body shop - trim options

    I got my car back from the body shop this weekend, and extremely happy with the results. Now I have a new problem ... the trim/molding/bumpers are too shabby to put back on the newly painted car. I think I have 3 options: 1. Buy New 2. Re-Chrome 3. Powder Coating So ... I guess...

    Door Poppers

    Hello. My mustang is in the body shop right now getting the whole treatment done ... and I've decided to have the door handles shaved and the drip rails removed. For the door handles, for the poor boy approach, I'm gonna reposition the interior door handle so I can open from the small...

    Very soft pedal after frong disc brake swap

    Thanks again for the reply. The soft hoses from the calipers to the connection in the wheel well came with the kit ... so those are brand new. Everything else was reused. I had to start the bleeding process by myself ... so a buddy told me that I could fill the MC with fluid, and crack open...

    Very soft pedal after frong disc brake swap

    Thank you for the replies. Just rechecked the car, and the bleeder is on top ... so they were installed on the correct side. I thought that a brake pedal would "pump up" if there was air in the lines? It doesn't. I re-used the brake lines with the exception of one from MC to distributor...

    Dual Quad Carb Tuning

    Both carbs open at the same time. I'll work on the accelarator arms. I'll be interested to see what can be done to get rid of the hesitation. Thanks tim
