    351c 2v 4 bbl intake options

    My 1972 351 H Code is equipped with an Edelbrock Performer 351-2V dual plane intake, topped with a Holley 4160 600cfm carburetor. Engine itself is stock. It generates 202 DIN horsepower and close to 450 Nm torque. Not a high revving engine but enough torque to have fun. Ignition is stock but...

    Fuel gauge max all of a sudden

    Tom, Maybe the wire got damaged and now touches the body of the car somewhere.

    What headers are people using?

    I use Hedman Hedders 88320. They fit on my 351C-2V with FMX transmission. Just around the PS was a little reshaping of one tube, I think it was the one from cylinder #7, necessary.

    Season Opening 2024

    Here's a view from an other perspective. A herd of Mustangs growling through a street tunnel. Unfortunately there was some road maintenance and the tunnel is limited to 60 km/h this year. Few years ago the limit was set to 100 km/h which lead to a little bit more driving fun.

    429 Power Steering Cooler?

    Both Mustangs I've owned so far were equipped with air conditioning from the factory. The late 1973 F-Code had the power steering cooler, the late 1972 H-code does not.

    What did you do to your car today?

    On Saturday evening, I met up with friends at the Stuttgart Night Cruise, an event held every week on Saturday evening. Getting there was unproblematic until about three miles from my destination. I was stuck in traffic and after about 10 minutes the engine started running a little rougher. I...

    351C FMX shifter linkages help needed

    If you tow your Mustang, be sure the rear is lifted or the drive shaft is removed. Towing a car with automatic transmission with drive shaft in place and engine not running will cause additional damage to the transmission. The better way is to use a trailer or a ramp truck.

    351C FMX shifter linkages help needed

    As your transmission guy is a friend of yours and knows about your personal skills: follow his advises. I don't want to talk you into technical problems.

    351C FMX shifter linkages help needed

    There's no need to get the FMX out of your car when you just want to change the lever, but: you need to get the oil pan and oil filter off and the valve body out of the FMX. Without a two or four post lift, it's a mess. When reassembling the valve body be sure that all the levers are sitting in...
