Looking for a crossmember for my 73 Mach 1, will a 70-71 torino crossmember work?

It does look a bit bulk, will it work with long tube headers?

I will for sure, thank you very much

My 72 351c has developed a very slow cranking problem over the past few months, I've got battery cables(8 gauge I think) that are less than 6 months old the positive wire gets so hot it could cook an egg, the starter is probably original, but I had it tested and it checked out, I replaced the...

I was browsing CL and saw some mustang II deluxe door panels in perfect condition and in the correct color and price, was wondering if they will fit in a 73 mach 1 door

Id reckon that's it because it gets stupid hot and it actually glows

JUst got a new battery for some more cranking amps, now when I crank the car for more than 15 seconds, smoke comes from the solenoid and produces a terrible smell. Is the solenoid the issue, its pretty much brand new as well, or is it the starter cable, which is pretty old

Update, now it present even fire anymore and all of the spark plugs are fine, I'm going to try a new could and see what that does, when the distributor makes a tiny spark while the car cranks so I know it's not that and I know that the rotor is making contact woth the cap

Should i throw in some bigger jets?

The distributor is brand new and you do have the correct engine :D

I'll get back to you on the carb number it's a fairly old carb though, but I rebuilt the heads and decided against doing a cam, I know the timing is correct, and I redid the valves according to the Chiltons manual

I just torqued all the valves down carelessly, valves are all good

I have readjusted the valves and they were off a bit, so that's a good sign, bad thing is that when I cranked it, it didn't fire so I'm thinking the ignition has gone awry, another interesting thing is that it pops and what not when I actuate the accelerator pump with the choke open, so is that...

I also rebuilt the carb and put in a new vacuum secondary diaphragm, it started for 5 seconds, valves are next on the list :D

I've made another break through, drained the oil, put in the proper amount, ground cable went to the heads, had the ignition timed properly, and now it gets super close to starting, but not quite. I'm thinking a carb rebuild should do the trick, the plugs dont foul anymore, and the engine...

Because I'm a rock and when I put the heads on, I started the motor and poured oil on the valves to make sure I wasn't starting them dry, and I didn't think twice about it
