Your engine combo is just like mine, except I got the Edelbrock Air-Gap and a BG Speed Demon 750VE (Have swapped it for an Pro Form 750 - but not driven it). I also got a cast Scat crank, forged Scat H-beams, and Wiseco Pro-Tru forged Pistons, 10.80 Comp ratio. Also got a 3.70 Tru-Trac diff. One...

About the headlights, also check the connections on the beams themself for corrosion.

Kevin Marti can make you an new tag too.

My brother had it done by a body shop on his '70 Barracuda, I think they went a full inch below. I just provided that article as a guide. There are many ways to Rome. But if you can get a full quarter, that would be best, and just bore out the original welds.

The latest issue (June 2010) of Mustang Monthly Magazine has a feature on replacing querter panels. It should help you. 1966 Ford Mustang Hardtop Dynacorn Sheetmetal Replacement - Mustang Monthly

I agree. And the 750 cfm Edelbrock just doesn't work on Fords. Chevy guys love it, especailly the #1411. Every time someone swaps from a Edelbrock to a Holley, they all say the same ting: "It feels like a completly different car!"

A torque-arm could be the way to go suspension wise. It can be run with leafs. http://www.totalcontrolproducts.com/torquearm.html The TrueTrac is awsome, it's a torsen type diff, short for TORque-SENsing. Basicly, it operates in the opposite way of an open diff, sending power where there is...

About mold, try putting any interior pieces you can fit into the freezer. That should kill the mold.

Whoa there! IIRC, gasoline vapor can burn at -40 degrees. and it can ignite at room temperature. That is why you can't smoke at the fuel pump! It will not self-ignite before 752 degrees Fahrenheit, but be careful around gasoline. The vapor is heavier than air, and will sink to the ground. A...

It's .45... so I just doubled the standard NGK gap. I run a Crane HI-6. A friend helped me do it, because he belived a bigger gap was needed to take advantage of the ignition system, (MSD, Crane ignition boxes and such). He was right. Turns out - despite the tread name - I'm still running the...

So, final tune is 79/87 jets and static timing to 8 degrees. Have no knocking, and the car has never run as good as now. It runs real good, and pulls strong thru the register. Starts easy too. Opening the gap on the plugs had a real big impact.

Did a bit more tuning today. Jetted up to 77/87, and then it was very nice on WOT, from 13 to 12.4 @ 5000 rpm. It got richer as it climbed in rpms. It was a bit lean on cruise, around 15-16. So I changed the primary jets up to 79. It was nice on cruise too. 14ish - 15. Still got a dead spot at...

No, you just need more Horsepower to get the interst going again! :jester:

Thanks, it's fun when it works ;) I'll get back to you on any progress..

How's your oil pressure? IIRC, the cylinder 8 (the one nearest the driver) valves are the last components in the Windsor to get oil.

Did a little tuning yesterday. First had a drive, it was lean all the way trough the band, except cruising. Around 16. But the plug gap had helped, the engine was smoother, and a lot less interior resonance. So I upped the jets from 73/83 to 75/85. It's a Speed Demon 750 vacuum sec. Drove it...

Looked at the plugs yesterday, they were brown/tan. Very nice. But that is cruising. I think it's lean at WOT. Gonna head out later this evening with an AF sensor and find out. Plug gap was not much, so opened up to .045. Oh, and they were in heeat range 6, not 5 as I thought.

I tried Champions once, didn't work well for me. I've heard great things about them, I'd like to try Autolites. I looked at the NGK Tech Support site.. found this: That is exactly what I experience, the ignition timing has to be near knock level to run any good. So I know it's a...

I've been looking into Autolite, but I'm not sure what heat range to use. I think maybe 6..

rsweld, a friend of mine with a '64 1/2 Hardtop 260 went from single exhaust to dual 2 years ago, using the Magnaflow kit. It has a beautiful sound to it. And it installed easily, snug to the bottom of the car. A quality product.
