    Another Wheel and Tire question

    Ok here they are.  Everything clears fine.  Could have gone with more rubber on the back.

    Another Wheel and Tire question

    Ok, I've combed through the forum and I think I'm more confused than I was.  I'm looking at these wheels and tires and it sounds like 17s are a possible problem.  Here are the details. - Size: 17” x 7” (front) and 17" x 8" (rear) - Lugs: 5 x 4.5" - Finish: Gloss Black - Offset: 1mm -...

    351 Cleveland 2v to 4bbl

    I did this exact thing on my 73. Edelbrock 2750 with the 1406 carb. If you do use an Edelbrock carb there is not a throttle bracket adapter made for our engines for use with that carb, but I was able to dremel out one of the mounting holes for the Windsor adapter and it works great.

    2v intake and carb swap to 4v

    I did this project last summer although I don't have a ram air hood. Used the Edelbrock 2750 intake and 1406 carb. Love the results. I had already gotten the duel exhaust done. You can see some of the before and after shots on my flickr page https://flic.kr/s/aHskdbJDee

    Instrument Panel Light Sockets

    Ok, so I decided to try to replace some of the bulbs on my instrument cluster so I could actually see the speedometer at night. In the process of taking some of the bulbs out, some of the sockets just disintegrated on me. I've seen them on several Mustang sites for $3 each, but found some on...

    Rear speaker wire question

    I need some opinions please. My car did not come with rear speakers. It only had the front dash speaker. I'm installing a new Custom Autosound Slidebar and was wondering what the best path to run speaker wires to the back would be. I'm not cutting the deck, I'm just going to put speaker...

    trunk lock cylinder question

    How is the retaining clip held in for the trunk lock cylinder? Mine fell out and I don't see how it is held in place.
