With the 14' racing season behind me, it's time to start my much anticipated winter project--adapting 67/68' shock towers and front suspension to my 65' Mustang. After this mod I should have gained enough engine compartment room to allow me to install a nice set of raised port racing heads and...

I moved my springs in 3" on each side of the rear on the 65' Mustang. The angle from the body hole to the spring perch has changed and it causes a bind on the Rancho 9 ways when installed in the original holes. The Rancho's are also bottomed out on compression. The Ranchos have stock type...

Looking for photos of how the hard lines are run at the rear floor of a Mustang coupe plus how the rubber brake hose is attached to the rear end housing. I know I need to relocate the hard line bracket. The routing from the hose on the rear is confusing when looking at the outlets. Already...

When you jamb a car like this: How do you prevent overspray on the painted panels when doing the rest of the shell? Waxing, back taping, ??????

Due to my 6'3" tall frame and needing to install a roll bar in my 65' stick Mustang, I must part with the stock 15 1/2" woodgrain steering wheel to gain critical knee clearance. Too bad no one makes a good small repo of the stock wheel. Anyways, I am looking for recommendations for a nice...

Ron Morris Dropped Motor Mounts for sale. New, never installed and just collecting dust in the garage. I never even tightened the locknuts. Won't work with my oversized 1 3/4" Accufab large tube headers on a 351w in a tiny 65' engine bay. From the RMP website...

Over the winter I want to update my SBF toploader to big block specs. I am going to use the 1 3/8" wide ratio "long" input shaft, the appropriate bearing and the throwout bearing snout. I pretty much have the front covered and I am fairly knowledgeable about the toploader workings. I am also...

is used to connect a 3an braided hose (female end) to an oil gauge that originally used a tube, a ferrel, and a small nut? The oil gauge has a male end that is maybe half the diameter of a 1/8" NPT fitting. I need to adapt it up to at least 1/8" in order to make a connection. I have some...

Is it me or has it moved? Each time I try it I get to some portal that says its Dodgestang.com but it isn't. More of a portal for other automotive junk. Are there any other databases for 65/66's?

I want to hook up a 2 step with my clutch pedal. I am familiar with the wiring diagrams. Should the switch be located at the bottom of the pedal travel so that it releases "early" when the pedal starts coming up or should the switch be located at the top of the peddle travel so that it...

Hi guys, I have a 68' GMC that wants to drain the battery over a day or 2 period. The alternator charges at 14V. The battery will hold a charge for weeks and start the truck if the cables are removed from it. I have a load tester and the battery checks fine. I've replaced the regulator...

Hopefully the mods will be gentle and let me get a little feedback. . . . I am a long time contributor to this forum and I have a vehicle problem that I don't know how to solve. I realize that his is not a classic Mustang post, but after looking at all the forums available, I could not find a...

I am checking out a C code 68' coupe. It is a project car that obviously has been around. At least the title matches the car. One of the codes on the engine compartment buck tag is "CS." Does anyone know what it means? (ie c-stripe, collapsible spare, California Special or ??????????) Does...

About to order rims and Quick Time Pros. Want to know, given a similar width/height tire and an identical width/offset rim, which is better for rear dragstrip traction--a 14" or a 15" rim?

I need to know if there is a special rim needed when using the stock K/H 4 piston brakes on 65-67 cars. I do know that early steel non-disc brake rim will interfere. Specifically, can I mount later Ford rims (68+), such as a Magnum 500, rim on the front of a 65'-67' disc brake car without...

I have dismal 60's with my 4 speed 65' stang. In addition to drag shocks, I also need to find a decent DOT drag tire. It is my understanding that DOT radials are a poor choice and that I should use a bias ply instead. Does anyone have a recommendation of what tire to run AND WHAT SIZE? My...

Does anyone own a set? Wondering what they look like. I have 2 shortened 1 1/8" open wrenches that I use but they aren't to friendly with the small amount of ground clearance that I have. A pic would be super. . . .

Moth Balls. Has anyone ever heard of putting them in a gas tank? Supposedly makes the fuel burn cleaner and raises the octane. Add 1 dollar store moth ball to 2 gallons of gas. Doesn't work with every car but can make a dramatic difference in idle quality and fuel mileage. Any truth to...

I installed my Duraspark Distributor/MSD 6AL combo during the winter and noticed I had a high speed miss when the motor was revved over 4000 RPM--in neutral. I changed plugs and added MSD wires and the problem persisted. While playing with a vacuum gauge and timing light today I discovered...

I would like to add power brakes to my car BUT it has a 351w installed. After doing some preliminary measurements with a stock 65/66 booster/bracket, it seems that the valve cover of the 351w will interfere with the 7" booster. SOOOOOOOO my question is: Has anyone put a PB booster on a...
