Thanks guys for the suggestions. I'll check those areas and get that rod back in. Mario.

No. the side to side movement seems ok.

Hello all, wondering if anyone encountered this before. On my 1972 Mustang 302 with FMX trans. I recently noticed difficulty shifting from Park into Reverse, It is like the shifter is locked but if I move the shifter handle slightly to the left and then shift, it goes into gear smoothly. I...

Hello again all. Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. Just wanted to give an update and thank everyone who posted with their suggestions for the trouble I was having with the Holley 4160 I had installed on my 302. After pulling off the front bowl I replaced the power valve and noticed that...

Chuck, my vacuum in drive is about 15 but the needle jumps about every 2 seconds. In park I get about 19 on the vacuum with a steady reading. The mixture screws don't seem to have too drastic an effect when turned all the way in but I got the best vacuum reading with both sides turned out about...

Chuck, if increasing the idle doesn't work, what size power valve do you think would work and do the jet and squirter nozzle have to be changed too. Also, how do you check if your power valve is blown. Thanks, Mario.

Yeah Tommy it does have the single metering block on the primary side. I am waiting on some gaskets but will try the timing like you said. Thanks again. Try increasing the timing. That will raise the idle speed which will allow you to close the front butterfly and get you off the transition slot.

Thanks Mike. Actually I did rebuild it about a year ago and this fall is the first time I took it out since then.

Tommy, the list # is 1850-2 1196.

Hello all, haven't posted in a while so I hope everyone is well and enjoying their cars. I hope someone can help with a frustrating problem I am having. I have a 72' convertible with stock 302 except for headers, dual exhaust Petronix conversion kit with Petronix coil and 8mm spark plug wires...

I installed one of Rocketman's conversion tachs. on my 72' convertible about a month ago. I had been sitting on it since the summer until I got a chance to put it in. It looks beautiful. Bob puts out a really good product and he is a really nice guy too. I had my friend drop off my idiot guage...

Thanks for the input guys, I will measure the intake with a flat edge just to be sure and yes "c9zx" it is an older intake. I think I bought it from Summit in 1992 or 93 but you are right it is no longer listed. Mario.

Hello all, I currently have a 2Bbl. carb. on my 72' with working Ram Air (including air cleaner). I would like to put on my 4Bbl. Weiand "Action Plus" high rise intake and Holley 600cfm that I had on the car before. I never had it on with the Ram Air setup and I was wondering if there would be...

Hello everyone. My name is Mario and I am new to this forum. I am working on a 72' convertible right now and I am in the process of putting in a tachometer. My car only had the idiot lights before but I had it converted to a modern type tach. I was wondering where I can route the "signal" wire...
