    Long Time Away, Road Trip

    Well I have been busy with life and doubt there are an current members that would even recognize my username but thought about this forum and the good times I had on here and wanted to touch base. I am about to make a 7 hour trip in my 66’ Restomod Sunday AM from Waycross, Ga to Asheville, NC in...

    2005 Gt Transmission Issue

    I recently bought my Son a 2005 Gt that has a Vortech V2 Supercharger among other mods including a "Tremec" transmission. The PO doesnt know anything about the trans except that the guy he bought it from said he chaged it out because of the increased HP. I say all of that to ask....The Hurst...

    I Has Been Awhile...

    After having my car away at the body shop for the last two years I just got the call that its done and ready for pick up. I have not been on the forums here in that time and I have done my best to not think about it but now that its coming home I am excited. I cant wait to put it all back...

    Borgeson stearing question

    I have a Fox era Serp. driven pump on mine and am very happy with its feel and never see a drop in pressure. This may not be an option for you though unless the pulley could be swapped out.

    Computer Program Suggestions.

    Yea, being in a small town doesnt help. I have looked at the car lots for new car colors but I just cant imagine them on my car. Paint shop is $99.00 and I am cheap. I'll research some programs....Thanks

    Computer Program Suggestions.

    I have been away for quite awhile as my car has been in the body shop (new floors, doors and 1/4) It is now time to decide on a color and I'm all over the place. Is anyone aware of a computer program I can use to actually see the color on my car? I cant seem to envision it in my head. It was...

    how do I separate the steering column and steering box

    Or if you have no plans on reusing the box cut the shaft off to make removing it easier. With my headers that was my only option when converting to the Borgeson Box.

    Is Versaille rear a bad idea?

    If you were dealing with one that had an open diff and highway gears I would say stay away or at least caution you about the cost to change to a better gear ratio and some type of locking differential. That being said the brakes were the biggest issue and after rebuilding mine and powdercoating...

    H-pipe or X-pipe with Tri-Y's

    Magnaflow's X pipe kit was so pretty I didnt want to drive in the rain. And I have had people tell me it sounds like a newer Cobra. When you accelerate hard it sounds great and there is no drone....Of course my car is heavily Fatmatted. As you can see it sits really low but that depends on your...

    borgenson steering conversion? who has drove a car with the install?

    It was very close but your ding should make help. I also have and issue with my engine sitting at an angle and when I pull it all back out for paint it should make that better. If you have questions feel free to email me at [email protected] Im rarely on here.

    borgenson steering conversion with Z-bar

    I would also suggest going Hyd. as I did although for different reasons. I have a T56 which uses an old style top loader bellhousing so it was my only option but it adds to the restomod (updated) feel of the car. Your going to love the Borgeson Box:nice:

    borgenson steering conversion? who has drove a car with the install?

    Well I have one installed on my 66' Mustang and couldnt be more impressed with it. I replaced factory manual steering and with my 17" wheels I had to do something different. I had rebuilt the front end with all new ball joints, tie rod ends and finished it up with shelby springs. I looked hard...

    Help with Clutch Setup

    I have a T-56 and went with a Mcleod Hyd. clutch. I am really happy with the pedal effort and adjustability. The only thing is you HAVE to set it up right or you will be removing the transmission....Dont ask how I know:nonono:

    Tax return upgrades?

    I also hate to be a negative elitist but....Most of us on this forum dont consider their cars to be just one of a million produced. Heck, I rode home in my car when Dad bought it in 1977, I was 7 years old. So please dont get upset when we take issue with your comments about them being just old...

    66 mustang and vortech

    I am using a mid 80's ltd braket which has allowed me to utilize a fox body PS pump and it moved the Alt to the drivers side...No idea on A/C until I get it the body work done.
