I started taking apart my engine and noticed that my flywheel has hairline cracks about an inch long all over the face. What would have caused these cracks? I would figure that the flywheel is no longer usable, does anyone have a recommendation for a flywheel clutch assembly for the 390...

I want to upgrade the alternator in my car I have heard a lot about the 3G. My main question is if I go to the junk yard what car/year should I pull one out of that will fit in? Is the wiring the same as my stock alternator? Also do I just take the pulley off of the old alternator and put it on...

I would like to upgrade my ignition system. I am thinking of one of the electronic ignition converters and a new coil. There are a few companies that make them witch one do you guys recommend? I don’t think that the distributor for my 390 is not the original. It is a ford distributor c5af-c...

I was thinking of buying some for my 67 vert, but they are around $200. Has anyone made their own? It doesn’t seem hard, it is just some 2” square stock and a weld bracket. Does anyone have some pictures of their sub-frame connectors attached to the car so I can get some ideas? Thank you

Artists welcome: I would like to make a cover for my subwoofer. If anyone has a good drawing any suggestions would be appreciated. They are 12” Thanks

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how many 67 390 GT convertibles with a 4 speed were made. I was looking online and could not find a number. I don’t want to pay a lot to get a number either. An estimate would be fine as well. Also, I was wondering about a rough value of the car. It is...

I found my build sheet, and was wondering if anyone has any information on the codes. Thank you

The engine idles rough and only makes decent power around 1500-2000 rpm. It bogs on acceleration from a stop, and is hesitant from hard acceleration from about 1000 rpm. It seems like the engine produces a lot of heat (it is a 390) but the temp gauge is not even half way. Is that fine? What...

I think that I have a short somewhere. My left and right courtesy lights do not work. It is very weird; when I test the bulb holder, it says 12volts. I know the bulbs are good and it does not light my tester light either. Also now if I leave the car overnight my battery dies :shrug: . I have...
