Any of you have experience with these? Wondering what RPM they typically stall at.

I've gone from deluxe to standard and back to deluxe again with my car. I used Mustang Market panels. Going from standard to deluxe you'll need the following: -Door panels -Woodgrain Inserts -Stainless trim at carpet border -Beltline weather strips -Inside Door Pull Handle -Inside Door Handle...

Thanks for the feedback. Still want to hear from anyone who has used the RPM. Will look into the T-9 products. I have a jug of Ospho and another similar product called Rust Mort. I use them as paint prep on rusted metal. This reminds me that I need to wipe down the roof on one of my...

Have any of you tried this? I saw this on a recent episode of Graveyard Cars. The reviews seem to indicate that it works well, but not for very long. It would sure be nice to have a DIY treatment for bare steel parts to resist corrosion with something that doesn't involve paint. If you've...

Obviously, it's your car and you're free to do as you choose, but why not just sell the mustang and find a GM product for your engine or vise-versa? I'm anti-brand swapping muscle cars.

Thanks. Sounds great at idle!

I wouldn't hold it against you if you did hate them and I don't mind driving a throwback from the 80's :) I will say, that when I see pictures of the hair styles and clothing we wore back then, it does make be laugh a little. To your point about the hood, I have an extra hood that I'll use to...

What app are you using to measure the sound intensity? I'm gonna have to check that on mine. Wondering how the X pipe changed the sound of your exhaust. Did it give your exhaust the brrrraaaaap sort of sound like the modern musclecars seem to have? They seem to have a higher pitched tone...

David Frieburger loves the tunnel ram and has done some dyno comparisons with them on Engine Masters. I'm slowly piecing together the parts to put one on a big block for a ranchero.

Your 73 block should be a D2AE casting. In general, the D2 has slightly thinner cylinder walls as compared to the D0AE block. What is your block currently bored to and what are you wanting to do with it? For the cost of those FB parts, you could sleeve all 8 cylinders on your block and still...

Did you position the crossover at a specific distance from collectors to tune out the drone? I'm considering adding flex couplings, like you've got. How do you like them? Any leaks?

There's an edelbrock performer for 2v heads for sale in the cleveland's forever group on facebook. The guy is asking $100....I tried to post up the link, but I got a strange error message. If you pursue this, be sure you're confident it's not a scam.

I did the swap from a 351c/FMX to a 429/C6 back in the 80's. The major components for that swap were: Engine Mounts Radiator, fan, & Shroud (hoses were larger diameter, pilot on water pump larger, and fan shifted farther over compared to 351) All accessories (the car I swapped from was...

I went out to have a look and discovered the battery in my welding hood was dead! The sun was a bit less intense than normal, but that's about it. Pretty much the same as the last one a year or two ago.
