Thinking Red Lines on some period correct wheels on mine. Mag 500's of Keystone's. 215/65 all around.

It sat to long for sure. Keep it freed up with a good drive every now and then.

Candygram for Mongo!!!.....Sorry couldn't resist!

Try a little penetrating oil on the guides and see if the sound goes away. Look for bad or bent stems. I think you problem is not letting the new or old work right. The lead really is needed for a stock head. After adjusting so many times , I think is worn parts or lubrication.

How thin a motor oil are you running ? Above 0 degrees 20w50 could be the cure you need.. These ran with leaded fuel to keep the valves from sticking. Are you on the original guides? Products like lead additives and octane boosters could also help. If I remember right , louder after it...

http://www.kkpony.com/gifs/JaysWheel_tire_6566.gif This might help with normal upgrade options.

4.250 backspace is recommended around that size.

This should help. Back spacing matters. So match to fit. http://www.mustangandfords.com/how-to/chassis-suspension/mufp-0612-ford-mustang-wheel/ I'm stuck between 14" 205/ 70/ 14 Styled steel with Red Lines or Mag 500's with 215/65/15

I will have to check my own vacuum modulator. Thanks Zookeeper! I am putting a manual choke back on the 65 with a Holley 2v.

I finally got my Holley 350CFM 2 barrel in. I went through Holleys eBay remanufactured store and picked up a re-tested 7448/2300 for $229, no core charge. Listed ...Like New on eBay for being a return from someone who adjusted it out of spec. I cant tell that its been installed before, so I'm...

I should add , That I used the Holley remanufactured EBAY store so my 7448 was $229 with a 90 day warranty. 0 to 50 should be responsive and still roll out on the highway nice.

I believe the stock 2100 Ford 2 barrel had about 250cfm. So a 500cfm should be fine unless you go crazy low with gears. I just picked up a Holley 7448 350 cfm 2 barrel for a stock 1965 c code. Putting a manual choke back on it as well. Not everyone wants to race a 50+ year old car.

It's nice because he is a 75 tear old man ! I have my late Uncles 65 convertible with all drums and fresh Monroe springs and shocks. Corners are a lot quieter now.

Welcome. Have you looked into the New Edge Mach 1 Mustangs? 4V 4.6 , Shaker hood. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3jSfhGPatUU

No concourse correct guys on this page? I will admit , it was strange when the vintage car club passed me a membership app. Then it dawned on me , its well over 50 years old.

Its close for sure. I have not needed the shroud put back on. I still have it. Just need to shim it out and get longer hardware for the thicker radiator.

Ok , life happened and I put off getting a Holley 2V with a manual choke till now. My question is, will a stock 289 see any benefit going larger than 350cfm ? I'm thinking no. But I will trust the older memberships advice. Mostly a parade car. But some real world highway speeds with a stock...

I put in a 3 core radiator from eBay and a 160 degree thermostat. No issues in any parade for the last 7 years. I'm all stock with no heat producing upgrades.

Thanks, Edster !

Hey now, It looks great 20 ft. away. ;) It had a repaint sometime in the late 80's.
