Personally when I get ready to put wheels on I am going to go with the mickey thompson classic II. I like their styling and it is something you just don't see on cars.

I paid 200 for my 9" with 3.55ls large tube big bearing. Nice piece, now time for the disks.

thanks for the replies, I was not sure if there was a benifiet for the larger pattern. I didn't remember about the explorer brakes, thanks for that.

A while back I bought a 9" rear from a friend who was parting out his early 70s f100. It has a 5 on 5.5" (roughly) lug pattern. My car is running a 5 on 4.5" (ruoghly) lug pattern. I am going to be changing the length of the axle to fit under my car, I will have to buy aftermarket axles to...

Has anyone concidered the 8.8 irs out of the 80s and 90s t-birds?? It has its own subframe that would not be hard to mount in an early stang. I do not know the width but it would be close.

I think that with all the money you are spending, splurge for a new oil pan.

If you put the tranny into neutral, can you rotate the driveshaft?? I used a detroit locker in my truck, it is not an ez locker but nearly the same thing. No mine doesn't make a loud pop, it doesn't really make any noise at all. If you bought your locker new, it has testing instructions with...

Having an 88 escort gt, I know I would not want those seats in a stang. I did however see a really nice set of (forgive me) APC seats at a show, they were not parchment but had excellent support.

What did you have to do to get the fuel injection setup to accept boost?? You did a very nice job on everything about it, well done.

I would take the neg side off of the battery and put a test light between the terminal and post. If there is light you have a short. Just systematically disconnect stuff till the light goes out. When it does, you have found your short.

I would first test the resistance of the wire between the starter and the solinoid. A wire like that should have no resistance to it, if it has any I would suspect the wiring.

For what its worth, I have the same setup as you are running (2v 351c in a 73 mach) and I have the edelbrock 4 barrel intake and a 620 edelbrock, and hate it. The engine needs more carb and a diffrent intake. I don't like the power curve of my setup.

Since it clicks at the relay, I wouldn't expect it to be in the ignition switch. If it were mine, I would check the resistance between the positive terminal on the battery cable and the relay's power side. Sounds like you have insufficient power.

The shims determin how tight the limited slip is. The looser the clutch pack, the more it will have a tendinicy to deliver power to one tire. On the other hand, too tight and you might as well have bought a spool. Like all things automotive there is a spec for this.

Wow, excellent timing on these posts. I just bought a big bearing 9" out of a ?? 73 ?? F-150. I want to narrow it slightly to run some fatter tires. My question is to install it I want to scrap leaf springs and use a 4 link. Has anyone here ever done this?? The project car is a 73 mach...

A lot of people have said it and it is true...buy an escort. My daily driver is an 88 GT. You would be supurised at the bite they have for a four banger. I do an average of 30,000 miles a year, and it has never left me walking. Oh and it has 260,000 miles on it. Not to mention I got it for...

it sure was nice of him to take the pics of it on the handicapped spot. I don't know if it the block style tires but the look way wider then mine.

I wish mine was that nice. What size tires are you running on that beast?? Your trunk turned out very nice.
