    Looking for a Cowl Hood. Who to buy from?

    I bought a Shelby style hood from Unlimited Products probably around 20 years ago. It was not very good quality, but they may have greatly improved their quality since then.

    Help ID'ing wheels

    I think the fanblade wheels from the late models look similar to the wheels on the '65 Shelby's. Has anyone seen those wheels on a classic?

    trouble finding wheels with 9" lincoln rear

    Subscribing. Not to steal your thread, but I also have some questions about the Versailles rear that may best be answered in the same thread for everyone who's interested sake. In have the same rear, 8" wheels with, I believe, 4.5 inches of backspacing, rolled rear fenderlips, BFG Radial TA...

    carpet dye

    Thanks for the reply. I'm actually asking about this for a JL Audio Stealthbox for my 2007 F-150 Supercrew that I picked up for a song used. I've posted this question on a few F-150 forums, but everyone just keeps saying to recarpet the box, which is what I would do if the box wasn't such a...

    carpet dye

    Not necessarily Mustang related, but has anyone used carpet dye before? I have a gray carpeted speaker box that I would like to dye black to match my other carpet. There are several different types of dye out there, but I don't which one to choose. Of course, I don't want any color fading or...

    HERE IT IS, BACKED BY FORD

    In this month's Hot Rod magazine, there is a crate motor comparison with a 331 Boss from Ford Racing. It dynoed at 530 horsepower @ 7,200 rpm/407 ft lbs of torque. I don't know what it costs, but it sounded pretty cool.

    LS1 Heads on a Ford

    Bingo. I was waiting to see how long this diatribe would go on before someone said this: higher rpm capability+overdrive gives you the ability to: get better low end torque with lower gearing, which=better towing torque. Should you have to change gears to get this result? No, but everyone...

    NEW RETROBUILT GT500KR-INPUT?

    I agree for the most part. The front looks awesome. I will be interested to see it with the bumper. The rear is recessed too deep though. Look closely at the original. The bumper was nowhere near as deep as yours. In addition, the taillights, quite frankly, look like a cobbled together...

    WAS a v/6 LOL: Ultimate sleeper

    I'm sure nothing had to be cut out. The mod motors are as big and heavy as the old big blocks.

    Another Tire Size Question

    That is not a good idea. Tire sizes are expressed in ratios. 235, 245, etc. tells you the width of a tire in millimeters. The reason 245's are taller than 235's when you are talking about the same aspect ratio, here 45's, is that the aspect ratio, e.g. 60, 50, 45, 40, etc., is an expression...

    Will my rear tires fit????

    The backspacing is your problem. Ideally, you'd have 4.75" backspacing. With your backspacing, I'm not even sure the 235's will fit.

    Thinking of selling...

    Have you considered any additional suspension mods? Check out Maximum Motorsports, Griggs, etc. I don't see how a front wheel drive CRX would out handle a properly set up Mustang. :shrug:

    Boss 429 motor swap

    I'm somewhat with Blueboss S197 in that I've also read that they only "massaged" the shock towers with a BFH, but I can't recall my sources at this time. However, I've also read articles that made it sound like Karcraft recreated the wheel to make it work. The truth would be interesting if...

    Does adding 18 inch wheels require suspension tune?

    This is only true if the overall diameter of the tires and wheels is different than with the 17's.

    Baer Bump-Steer Kit for Granada Spindles

    2bav8 how do you like the Baer bump steer kit? I asked about it recently on Ultrastang's Granada spindle/Cobra brakes conversion thread, and noone seemed to have any experience with the kit with Granada spindles.
