    Help Locating a Dead Short

    http://www.rccinnovations.com/index.php?show=menu-mustang-all He's a forum vendor if his operation is back up and running. I think he re-wires OE tachs. Send him a message.

    Upper control arm

    It looks like the Moog arm stamping is different than the Ford stamping. If you get it to work please provide some photos of what you had to modify. Unfortunately this is to be expected on parts built from new tooling for 50 year old cars. Moog probably built the cheapest tool they could that...

    WTB: 1971 Front Seat Hinge Covers

    Just confirming that you know the early 71 MY hinge covers are different than later 71 through 73. I don't think the early ones are reproduced and they are hard to find.

    Fitting for Ford P/S pump to a Borgeson gear box

    If you don't have the box end of the pressure hose buy a new one (I looked up 1971 Mustang 351C): https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=7655188&cc=1132692&pt=7320&jsn=2968 That along with the pump should be enough to get a custom hose made. Hell, they might be able to use that hose and...

    Fitting for Ford P/S pump to a Borgeson gear box

    Since you have the original hoses from the steering box, the simplest option might be to take the pump and the old hose to a hose supplier {in my area of Michigan the Parker stores are a good option) and have a custom hose made with the late model PS pump fitting instead of the Thompson pump...

    Sticking Caliper

    If its only happening at one front wheel I would think its something on that corner- the hose, the caliper etc. But your question is valid- I do think the OE prop valve handles the split in the front circuit. Pressure comes into the valve from the master and then out to each front corner. There...

    Flexplate Issues

    Bread works great. Before I learned about the bread method I used grease and an extension wrapped in tape which is more effort to clean up than bread...

    Opinions needed

    Are the springs new? If so they will settle a little after some use so it might be worth putting some miles on just to make sure. If the springs are already 'seasoned' then you are where you are.

    Shorty Headers for 429 CJ/SCJ

    Well that is sad to hear about Stan- I haven't used them but I have not ever heard anything negative about the fitment or qualiity.

    429CJ Ram Air base air cleaner

    If it doesn't have to be an OEM part you can rework a repop small block air cleaner to work on a big block.

    Ignition Issues

    I feel your pain, I have been doing this for years and I had issues trying to get my 460 running last year that had me pulling what's left of my hair out... As was suggested by somebody else, I would pull all the plugs and make sure they are not fuel fouled. While they are out, pop the...
