FPA headers with PS, AC and 4 speed. Installed in my garage with no issues.

http://www.fordpowertrain.com/fpaindex/Mustang1.htm I can confirm those bolt on a 73 vert, a/c, p/s, 4 speed, 351C 4V. :)

And yes, I removed that Y adapter thingy. :)

Just closing the loop on this. I replaced the sending unit with a new motorcraft part, and the oil pressure gauge works great again. In case it helps anyone, I used a Motorcraft SW-1547-B. Comes with teflon tape attached and screws right into the block.

OK, thank you. I ordered the new sender, should be here tomorrow. I'll remove the non-factory "Y" piece and screw the sender into the block where it belongs.

Okay, so I hooked up an oil pressure gauge to the same port where the sending unit was. With the car idling (1,000 RPM, factory spec) for a half an hour I see 35 PSI. Revving it to 2000 RPMs gives 64 PSI. I feel like those numbers are probably acceptable. I will order a new sending unit and see...

Is this factory? I'm guessing, one side of this went to my oil pressure gauge, and the other side to a buzzer or ***** light? The side that is capped was not connected to anything. The other side I unscrewed my pressure sensor from.

Just realized that my cheap Harbor Freight compression tester also doubles as an oil pressure tester (I think). I'll test it out tomorrow and post results.

73, 351 4V Q Code, 4 Speed, factory gauge cluster in center console (including oil pressure) My oil pressure today was really low at idle (near the "L" on the factory gauge). At 2,000 RPM it was in the lower 3rd of the safe range. Oil level is fine. I changed it in the Spring - and maybe put...

I love when dealers give a $13k.discount. lol

Note: Edelbrock intakes show up on Craigslist every now and then. Keep your eyes peeled. I'm not sure how much better they are then the cast iron originals, but they sure are lighter!

Original powertrain?

Think it'll show up at a dealer soon for $115k?

Another vote for Redhead. Quick ratio. Love it.

73 Vert, 351C 4V, 4 Speed, FPA headers, 2.5" dual exhaust, 3.25 rear. So I finally bit the bullet and ordered Eddy heads (non-roller), cam and timing chain/gear set. I ordered an ARP bolt kit and heads, intake, headers gasket set. I also ordered a timing chain gasket and water pump gasket. The...

Sorry to hear, Bill.

Good thinking! Adding the VIN in case anyone ever restores it to original and sells it, the new owner might enjoy it's past life! 1T05H679427

TV in dash. That's a new one for me. https://raleigh.craigslist.org/cto/d/oxford-1971-ford-mustang-mach/7757771168.html

I'd love to see the HOA docs, too. But in the long run, you live in a neighborhood that has a "government." If it were me I'd: 1. Read the HOA docs to see if their claim is defensible. 2. Get a normal car cover. 3. Possibly paint the car (I understand their may be financial issues there...

Good find!
