Thank you everyone. You gave me some good things to look and think about. I will follow up with what I find. Cip

Guys, Thanks in advance for your input on this. I have a 73 vert that is extremely low in the front. I put 1" Eaton springs drop springs and leafs on the car and the car sits to low. What is weird is that the control arm to bump stop gap is only about 1/4 of an inch, yes 1/4 of an inch. Its got...

Just a thought, you said you have an igniter 3 distributor? I contacted pertronix about mine and they said I needed a timing light that could read multispark. This did make a big difference at least from what I saw on mine. Not sure if you’re using a multispark ignition, but it’s an issue I ran...

Information sounds great. With my setup though I have unknown hydraulic lifters with bolt fulcrums that just torque down. Shims or push rods are my only adjustment. My dial indicator showed .125 travel, so it sounds like I just need to use the rod length checker and make sure my valve contact...

I decided to rebuild my first engine and have a xcouple of questions on the rocker arms. Most videos I watch deal with new lifters. My friend had an engine with a fairly clean background. I decided to take the engine apart and put new bearings and rings in it. All the videos on the rockers that...

Thanks crush. Any from underneath?

Hey everyone, I am working on my 73 Convertible and it looks like somewhere along the way the floorpan has been replaced as well as some firewall patching. I don't seem to have an emergency brake cable hole below the pedal. Would anyone have pictures of inside and underneath where the cable...

Hey, that would be great. Are you a member of the Music City Mustang Club?

Thanks Texas. I misunderstood the intro post from Pat until I actually read the welcome post. :) Posted and became a supporting member. I have been using a lot of your guy's info when working on the mustang and its worth every penny.

Not very good at these intro's but I like to talk so this may be short or long. :) I have been a mustang enthusiast since my dad bought a 65 coupe in 1975. I just recently bought a 73 convertible with a 351 2V motor and love it. I never realized how much fun it is working on the 70's model over...

Pat, I have been a mustang enthusiast for 45 years and own two. 1965 Mustang Fastback restomod(being built) and this 1973 pictured I just bought. The 2V motor is worn and so I am looking to replace it. Love the 73 even more than the 65 I think. :) Putting around Nashville, TN if your ever in...

I am looking for a motor to put into my 1973 Mustang Conv. Prefer a 351C 4V Closed Chamber complete motor. Thanks, Robert
