Thanks guys. Ive never seen mustang enthusiast magazine. Do they have a website? What bacspacing and rim size would be optimal to fit the biggest tire? I like the look of the tire sitting out to the fender but not outside, so a little less bacspacing it fine with me. Iskwezm - Wouldnt 5"...

Ok, ive asked about moving in the leaf springs before and I didnt get much of a reply. I know comp engineering has sub connectors with provisions for moving the springs in 3 inches. But what about the rear leaf mounts? Where will they go? Also, Ive looked under the rear and unless I cut the...

First thing you should do is get a shift kit in that tranny. Look into thumper heads. They are E-7s that he ports, polishes and i think he even does a 5 angle valve job on for around 600 bucks. The RPM is fine. Next I would get a bigger cam and a higher stalling converter, but this is...

GreGo, Yea I thought about the exaust and Im not to attached to running the pipes out back, so thats not a problem. If I decided to run them out the back, I could put in a fuel cell for more room. RaSMG, Where can I get the subframe connectors? Historic, Do you have any info or pictures of...

After reading the "pics of lowered mustangs" thread I looked under the rear of my 66 to see what options I have for getting bigger meats under the car. As of now I have some old 60 serise "Drag Rite" tires that my dad had on magnum 500s for right now untill I get the car on the road. From bulge...

First off, if your building a 400 horse car you are going to want to re-do the suspention and drive line since the last time it was replaced was 89 like you said. If the suspention isnt in top shape I would (at the least) order a suspention kit from a place like mustang depot or other mustang...

Yes, It has a large connector. So, Is their any way to run this on a carbed moter without problems? Would I be better off with a stock 30 year old distributor? I heard you can get a 85 or 86 distributor and run a msd box and that works good.

the E cars also have fender flaires. I dont know if thats the reason for the backspacing but I figured it was worth noting.

I think the only time you need to swap the gear is when you have a roller cam where a steel gear would be needed for extra strenth and wear. Any one else? Is the box the only thing I need to run an 89 dist.?

I have an 89 distributor and I know I cant use it without a computer. But I heard that I could get a MSD box and plug it into the dist. and It would work well. Is this true? All I have to do Is get a MSD box to use this dist. on a carbed moter? Thanks, Britt

well I dont hace a 9 inch rear. Thats why I was hoping the Galaxie had one. I know it came with a six. If its not an 9 inch will it still have the brakes? How do Identify a 9?

Its a 64 galaxie with a 6. I know this is probably a no but I figured id ask. Also, is there any other parts that would be useful on my 66?

Thanks D. The first mod to my car was a pertronix unit so im ok there. Where can I get the reverse rotation water pump? I scanned threw a couple of catologs and couldnt find one. Thanks!

Thanks guys. The block I got wasnt an HO. Its machined for roller lifters but didnt come with them. I also had the 280H cam so I dont need the steel gear right? 1. Where can I find the reverse rotation pump and for how much? 2. Is it hard to find a different lower hose? Which one? (I...

Ok, I know theres been threads on this over the yeard but I need to know a few specific things. 1. I need to use the 289 oil pan and timing cover right?. 2. What balancer and flywheel (c-4 trans) 3. What do I do about the distributor (which one) 4. What water pump? 5. What am I missing...

Do you have any more pics of the car?

I agree with this compleatly. What i dont know though is if the emblems and other stock peices will go with the intended look of the car with the addition of an R model apron and glass hood. Things that i know Im getting rid of: Q pannel scoop simulator things Bumper guards Front bumper...

Thanks, What I was reffering to on the V8 thing is that when people see a classic mustang the first thing they look fore is the V emblem on the fender. As far as the gas cap goes, I think Ill just stick with stock because Im not crazy about paying 80+ for a gas cap. Where I live Ive seen...

Well Its getting close to the time to paint my 66 mustang coupe and I cant decide on what to do with tha body. Ive already decided on a R model apron and a 67 shelby fiberglass hood. Also, the fake side scoop chrome peice is gone. Ive also decided that the car does need some chrome so the rear...

They Didnt have 302s period untill 68. The A code 289 was for the most part the same as the C code exept for the addition of a 4 barrel instead of a 2. The K code was also a 289 with a solid lifter cam, better exaust, higher compression and a 4 barrel. The C code was rated at 200, the A at...
