    To build or to buy a 9 inch for my 66

    Thought they were about $1500 My bad. I suppose if you get killer deals better to build. Especially if you are mechanially inclined. In my case, as I am not, since I bought a brand new posi. and new gear. Seems like used gears will have a tendency to hum. Wear pattern is already...

    Autometer Guages in a 66

    Yes they will. Just did it on my car. Know exactly what you are thinking. JME has the guages in one of their precision machined clusters. Cool looking but I didn't want to pay $800.00 for them. So I used an original repo 66 woodgrain cluster. You'll have to do some tweaking. The guages...

    If you get a holley, bigs is the way to go Several have told me the same also. My car had an edelbrock 600 vac secondary carb when I first got it. Made several upgrades including the 650 double pumper. Noticible difference in power. The problem is for a novice like myself is jetting the...

    xenon city light in my 65 coupe

    should I get a third relay for the city lights???? Said they only draw about 6-7 amps of current. The guys at mustangs plus insisted that it is really not necessary to add relays because it is a 55 watt bulb. Nonetheless I think the relay idea is a good one.

    xenon city light in my 65 coupe

    No but the good news is... I heard that and asked the guys at virginia and mustangs plus and they claimed that no special mods would be required. Good news is that we turned them on for about 20 thirty seconds at the most. I know that my guy used seperate wiring for the city lights. What...

    xenon city light in my 65 coupe

    Had the guy that is painting my car install the xenon city lights in my 65. Looks awesome. The white euro looking lights. I was reluctant to do it at first because I heard that these could short out your electrical system. No worries because these are low watt 55 h4 bulbs. Hooked up the...
