carguy47, once you tell us what module/amplifier you are using black/orange are positive polarity to msd/ford MODULES and black/ violet are negative polarity to msd/ ford MODULES, others may differ depending on leading or trailing edge and some can be changed with dip switches from within thier...

carguy 47, since this is a 2 wire pro billet distributor, it requires an ignition box to run. What ignition box do you have installed ? There are leading edge and there are trailing edge ignition boxes. The polarity of the pick-up coil should have no bearing on weather or not this distributor...

When I replaced my booster, I used the Stanglover method and it worked out quite well other than cleaning out the remains of the plasticine and what about the 5 pounds of pressure ?. How about a piece of flat stock with a hole drilled in each end and add a bolt with a nut on each side threaded...

KC, I would start by at least replacing the output shaft bushing and seal. With the new bushing in hand, you can see how well it fits your slip shaft. As for the driveshaft you have 2 options, get it balanced or clean up the shaft and possibly see where the weight was tacked on (don't use the...

Jayro, Check out Summit racing 810308 100 amp alternator. It is actually a GM style alternator with the case machined to mimic that of our oem alternators. Simple wiring, took me about half an hour to wire and install, been on my car for about 4 years with no issues.

Manny, Nope, just the pinch bolt.

Ripper679, no not difficult at all, remove the nut from one side, i believe right hand side and rethread onto the opposite side to pull the stud out and tap on the stub to remove. when done simply reverse the procedure. You may want to mark your orientation of the stud ends, cannot remember if...

Ripper679, as for the fitting of the shifter to the shifter opening. I first loosened up the motor mounts at the engine block and all the bolts for the motor mount perches and pulled the tail shaft to the left with a non ratcheting strap old man power only, no mechanical advantage. this netted...

Just a small update, The TKX leaks any you won't believe where ! . Thru the speedometer cable at the speedometer head !. I went for a drive and noticed the floor mat was wet as well as parts of the dash. Called Modern driveline and talked to one of their tech people and he knew all about the...

Kiko619, has your engine actually ever started with the new starter ?. When you replaced all of the pushrods, did you rotate the engine with a breaker bar and did it rotate smoothly ?. Sounds to me that you either have an engine issue (possible hydraulic lock) or the starter drive is engaging...

Thanks Chuck, exactly what I want. I spent about an hour on ebay this AM and did not find that one.

Hemikiller, Went thru every one they listed, none even close.

I am looking for a throttle kicker solenoid/ac kicker solenoid to fit Holley bracket # 20-72 for a Brawler carb with their universal linkage. This solenoid needs to have 3/8-24 thread, the larger threaded Holley solenoid will not work. I have this set-up on my 770 brawler and it works quite well...

Um, ok, I understand that I can use the automatic transmission support. That support WAS for 4 wheel manual drum brakes. I now have power brakes with disc on front. I know about the differences in the brake pedal and the brake pedal switch. What I don't know is, does the 1973 mustang with power...

Stanglover, I should be able to come up with an adjustable stop with a rubber damper at my local hardware store.

Thanks Hemikiller, always value what you have to say. Although I am not looking forward to this task, it will be nice to prefab this setup. Will give a try before I pull the TKX and swap pressure plates. Everything else in my system has spherical bearings and hiem joints. when I did this the...

Ok guys & gals, here is my story and I wish to stick to it. 1971 FB with original FMX, swapped in a toploader from a 73Q car and now a Tremec TKX. For the TKX, I went with the 10 spline unit and re-used my 11'' long clutch. Now I am wanting to go with a diaphram clutch, and that is easy enough...

Kcmash, I would pop the distributor cap off and have a look see. Check the lead wire coming from the coil to the points, make sure it is tight and secure, make sure it is not grounding out and make sure the ground wire from the points to the distributor base is secure too. Also , while you are...

Stanglover, The next time you go for a drive (drive like you NORMALLY do, when you are done remove your PCV valve and hose at the carb, hang the assembly so it can hang and drain from the carb end into a clean container and see what you collect overnight. When you re-install, look for that...

Superbond, What do the spark plugs look like ? any evidence of oil?. the reason I asked about pcv system and valve covers is does the rocker cover that contains the pcv valve have a proper baffle and breather ? is it twist on (OEM) or push in (aftermarket)
