Through NDE, you can calculate material properties (young's modulus, poisson's ratio...ect) just by using UT, and you can test every part you send out and know exactly what properties each piece has, rather than assuming a constant quality through destructive testing randomly within a batch...

I'm sorry but hitting a bump is an instantaneous increase in the force on 1 point...there are no dynamics involved. You would use a load factor to bring the additional shock loads into consideration. Static analysis does take the acceleration into account...F=ma no? =] Sure, a...

What do you mean by this? All he needs to know are the basic forces applied on the loading points of the knuckle...from there calculating the stress/strain the part would experience, then make sure the cross section can withstand it...which is just simple statics. He doesn't need to do a modal...

+1 for being semi-unique motor. Plenty of the bowtie guys know about the cleveland and what it's capable of.

I had to cut the tunnel and raise it 2" to get the proper angle.

I've always had good luck with www.recycler.com for finding cheap cars.

I have an Autometer Phantom series electronic speedometer and I'm using autometer's electronic sending unit. It plugs into the tranny where the old cable did, and it also uses the old speedo gear. The neat thing is that you can recalibrate the speedo anytime. You just push the odo tab, mark...

You could switch over to a hydraulic assist system, kinda pricey though www.hydroboost.com

uhhh... i think the rims are lightweight racing rims....race, not rice

I watched the Z car episode. They put cams, exhaust, headers, 4 barrel holley, and a new intake. The best time out of both of the cars was a low 17.... :rolleyes:

I am in the process of putting a 351C in my 68 coupe. If you use the 4V heads then the 70 headers will work, but i opted for 2V heads and went with hooker's swap headers. If you end up going w/ the 4V heads i have a pair of 70 4V headers layin around.

How do they "suck"? Did they lock up too easily? Or did you just find out that everyone around here (SD) randomly brakes in the rain for no apparent reason.

I'm in the process of putting autometer's Phantom series gauges in my 68. I'm using 5" speedo/tach and 2 5/8 Gas/volt/clock. It's turning out to be waaaaay cheaper than the jme unit.

Don't go to autosport performance in Escondido. Those guys hosed me pretty bad.

I got my first 68 coupe for a grand when i was 14, drove that till the roof rusted through....beach car with a vinyl top...When i was 17 i got my second 68 coupe for $800. Now that i'm 21 i've dropped in a 351C and a tremec 3550 run through a built 9". I haven't had the time to do much since i...

I've been using the same redtop optima battery for 7 years. Never had a problem. Heck it's outlasted 3 of the 4 cars that i've used it in.

I dunno if this is a repost or not, i found this over on svtperformance. Looks to be a 69-70? http://mywebpages.comcast.net/Nomad59/69stang.wmv

I used a hydraulic TO bearing from mccleod and it works great

I am running into the same problem right now. The problem is that the top of the tremec's (in relation to the imput shaft) is much taller than the toploader. These are the options that i've found applicable... 1). A tech guy at darkhorseperformance said that there is a company that makes...

I like how they deleted the drip rail molding....or painted it black
