Reverse coolant flow/ sucking air into the port when the engine cools off I've never in 30+ plus years of building engines replacing thermostats drilled a hole in a thermostat so there's both sides of the coin Some say ya do, and some say you don't, Imho I guess it's up to the guy replacing...

Don't drill a hole in the thermostat. The correct Robert Shaw thermostat doesn't have one and nether did the thermostat installed from the factory. The Cleveland has a unique cooling flow and drilling the hole can actually cause more problems than it solves.

Since the global west upper arms you have dont allow any adjustment like the Street or track setup then the issue more than likely could be shock tower related or lower crossmember. Imho I disagree with your mechanic. In my 30 plus years of building repairing cars I've seen quite a few mustangs...

Good Deal ::thumb:: Looking forward to the rest of the high level restoration of this car

And what do you have for for upper arms ? I don't understand ether why he can't install them. If they are the same as the street or track (square blocks that fit in between the 2 tabs) It's a no brainer. Is the issue he can't get the specs with the plates/blocks installed ? or he just doesn't...

Yep

You mean the camber kit ? They can be installed 2 ways in other words with the number facing in or the number facing out maybe he has them reversed what control arms are you using ? Do they have adjustments like the street or track does with lock nuts ?

Don't use por 15--Prep is critical and meant for inner areas not exterior sheetmetal that's going to receive the actual topcoats exterior finishes. There are better easier to use products out there. If your looking to do the exterior sheetmetal epoxy primer is the way to go if the car is going...

What are the pros/cons of different shackle lengths? In relation to stock length, there are a bunch of things affected when you change shackle lengths. A longer shackle will move one end of the leaf spring further away from the frame, doing several things. It rotates the axle down at the...

Heres my take after being in the a/b biz repairing unibodys for over 25 years. The aftermarket parts used to suck back in the 80's-early 90's as of today they are pretty darn good. The Issue I've seen time and time again is poor installation of structural parts and not checking to insure the...

Did you replace or repair any of the inner structure (rad support -aprons front or rear)
