    Get Mach1 into 12.5 second zone

    My first outing with my 72 this year wasn't as successful as I had hoped.My best run was 12.33 @110 mph lifting at about 1000'.I was launching very soft 60' were around 2 seconds.The 3.50 gear isn't a terrible choice if you are gonna go the 460 route.My car doesn't have any problem pulling a...

    351C vs 429

    Weight is a big deal but the 429 can be trimmed down to be in the neighborhood of an all iron Cleveland.

    351C vs 429

    If you use FPA headers for the 429 you can put them on before you stab the engine.

    A couple weeks ago would be the last time the turn signals were used.Turn signals are working fine.Everything worked fine before I changed booster.

    brake light switch issue.

    Yes they spacers and bushing are installed correctly.It doesn't seem to me like it moves enough to make the switch break contact though.

    brake light switch issue.

    I don't believe it's a wiring issue.I have my test light directly on the spade of the output.When it will sporadically light when pedal is pressed it will light brake lights.

    Grrrr brakes again

    The new booster is holding and it's working. I got another new MC with the booster. I talked to tech at GPS,he said they adjust the pushrod correctly and have never had an issue there. There's some free play . I really don't think it's a bad mc.This is the 3rd one I've had on the car 2 of...

    Grrrr brakes again

    I was wondering if the bigger pad contact area would make much difference.I understand line pressure would be the same.Im considering it since I have to go thru a complete bleed out again.

    Grrrr brakes again

    I'm ordering one from GPS.Yes it's due to the thickness.The studs will come out of the holes but not alot.Had to tweak the brake pedal rod down pretty good and remove valve cover to get it out and it was still very tight.I hope I don't have to pull engine to get the new one in.

    Grrrr brakes again

    Thanks for the offer on the pressure gauges Jeff but I may have found the issue,at least a major part of it.I checked my booster last fall and it was ok.Ran a check on it again last night,it won't hold a thing,0".Tried pumping it up with my hand vacuum pump couldn't get squat.Hooked up the...

    Grrrr brakes again

    If something was wrong with the proportioning valve could that cause a lack of pressure at the calipers/cylinders?What can go wrong with the distribution block?
