mine needs a headliner. Im dreading trying to find someone competent enough to do that one.

in the course of this part of the restoration im going with the Classic Auto Air system. I really like the fan upgrade.

What kit is that?

are you running coil overs?

I just watched one of Mike's videos about the subframe connectors and X brace. The brackets for the X brace are actually welded in after the subframe connectors, so you can position them to clear your exhaust. That just shows the thought he puts into the stuff he makes. I can't wait because...

Dan isn't selling on eBay anymore. But he has a post in the torino cobra forum with his contact information. http://www.torinocobra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=39736&hilit=battery+support

Thank you kilgon. All of those things have been on my mind. I'm using a 4 core champion radiator right now, but I don't like it because it feels like it's made of tin foil. I may get Griffen to make me a good one out of actual aluminum. I don't know about the fan situation though. I'm going to...

In case anyone else is looking for these, Dan isn't selling on eBay anymore due to their 12% commission they started charging. He can be contacted directly as shown in this thread. http://www.torinocobra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=39736&hilit=battery+support

The next big battle will be finding a competent exhaust shop with someone who actually is a good tig welder.

Very tight on the exhaust, mine will probably be tighter since its going to be full 3" for the 460 to breath.. Fortunately I'm not in a big hurry. It's going to be 2 to 3 months before the engine is done and who knows how long the transmission will take but I assume not as long. I have a filthy...

THAT! Is exactly what Im talking about! Great job! Did you have to modify anything on the car to make it fit? with the kit version I could modify it if need be to clear my beast of a 460. I just heard back from Mike Maier and he said they have been working on a setup for 71-73 cars...

great job Vinnie! I was thinking cavity wax for inside the connectors, but you said you were having it dipped. What did you have it dipped with?

it looks like you are doing a great job. I suppose you are finished by now. Have you watched the Detroit Speed 70 mustang subframe connector video? If your a good welder, that would be a great thing to base a build off of. They did a great job on that. I wish they made a kit like this for...

So I am building a 500hp+ 460 for the mustang. In the process I am going to be doing alot of other things as well. The car now has a 302/C4/8" combination. So I picked up a used 9" from a 71 mustang. We are in the process of stripping it down and getting it all cleaned up and rebuilt with...

Those FPA headers look massive. is that the 429/460 version?

These heads are a great way to get instant power. On a stock 351c with Dish pistons and a decent cam you can get 400-450 HP no problem. The limit is how high you want to push the compression ratio. you can fine tune the compression ratio by using cometic MLS gaskets. They are available in a...

I have a set of 302C heads. These are austrailian 302c heads. They are rough but in good overall shape. They need everything. $500 pair plus shipping. I bought these heads from Billy "Stangster Boss" Morgan out in California. He is a well known youtuber and forum contributor to the 351c...

Welcome from Lake County Florida!

You know,  we all have to be on guard when dealing with anyone,  especially paint and body shops. The nature of their business is inherently crooked.  Same goes for mechanics.  The nature of their business is crooked and anyone that disagrees is kidding themselves.  The challenge is to find the...

I really took a big risk leaving my car at the painters house for a month. Every time I went over there he had people in and out talking about jobs they wanted done and it made me very nervous.  He lives in the Hood of Central Orlando but in a better part, which is still horrible.  Too many...
