    Holley 750 Vacuum Help - Very Rich At Cruise

    I found this thread on moparts Holley Rich at Light Throttle | Moparts Question and Answer | Moparts Forums I went and got some wire and put it in my IFRs and it does work...but the smallest I could is .023. This causes my idle AFRs to lean way out to 16-17:1. I am thinking if I could find some...

    Paint And What To Expect

    My dad and I are about to have a GTO done here in CA with good quality mats. The car was taken to bare metal and we did the very minor metal patches it needed. We painted the underside and firewall, the areas around the front and rear windows, the underside of the fenders, the door jambs and...

    Dual Diaphram Booster for 70 with factory Power Brakes?

    I posted this on vintage mustang forums as well and didn't get an answer... My understanding is the 70 Mustang has a different input coming off the brake pedal (tear drop?) I am looking for a dual diaphragm booster to replace my factory single. I see generics on ebay - no idea if they will...

    help with carburetor choice

    Ive been daily driving carb cars for 10 years and been around this block a few times. At the end of the day if you aren't using a wideband with an o2 sensor in your exhaust near the flange, or at least a narrow band o2 with a voltmeter I think you are taking shots in the dark as far as A/F...

    bump steer

    Are you running the borgeson box with the factory ford pump or with their pump? It seems like by time you get their pump the setup is 2/3 the cost of rack and pinion

    70 Mustang Front-End problem

    Sometimes working on these things makes me feel dumb lol. I had a friend shake the wheel hard in the air while I looked with a flash light and it looks like both my idler and pitman arm have quite a bit of play.

    70 Mustang Front-End problem

    Hack I have the stock 1970 front discs. If I am going down a relatively smooth road where it is banked down to the right and the left is under load it rattles constantly, and its pretty loud and sounds/feels like the wheel is moving around.

    70 Mustang Front-End problem

    Horse sence, Thanks for the reply. I checked that and both bolts at the bottom are snug. I can not wiggle the shock with the wheel supported in the air. I did notice yesterday that the wheel shake and rattle largely goes away when I am on the brakes so I am thinking maybe wheel bearing...

    70 Mustang Front-End problem

    Hello everyone, I have been slowly replacing the front end components on my 70 Mach 1 (and kind of now wish I had left it stock). I am running globalwest front springs and bilsteins that are supposedly valved for classic mustangs. I am also running opentracker's roller perches, globalwest...

    Installed Pertronix in Stock 351c - very poor starting and idling

    Now that I do more searches, I am finding several posts saying the pertronix needs a rewire to get a good 12v, and with the factory tach this is even more complicated. Does the same go factory electronic ignitions like the duraspark?

    Installed Pertronix in Stock 351c - very poor starting and idling

    My 70 mach 1 still has an original single point distributor. I just rebuilt the 351c, and with the original distributor the car fired (on what seemed like the first crank amazingly every time) and idled ok. A friend convinced me to install the Ignitor II from pertronix. I am using a painless...

    351C Radiator dimensions

    My car uses the saddle top mount (that wraps over the radiator) and the lower mounts. From my research I think this means it should be a 24" radiator

    351C Radiator dimensions

    Does anyone have the radiator dimensions for a 70 Mustang with a 351C 4v with a/c? Is the 351C radiator the same as the big block radiator? I got one aluminum radiator and it does not seem to be remotely correct...

    8.8 into 70 mustang driveshaft flange question

    Does anyone have measurements on this piece Ford 8.8 Pinion Yoke 1350 Series Forged 30 Spline ? It looks shorter than the yoke on the 9" - which is what I would need, since the 8.8 sticks out more than the 9"
