    Hard starting 1406 Carb new problem.

    Mine is consistent if sitting more than 12 hours….it takes about 15-30 seconds of starter operation with 3-5 pumps of the pedal….I have fresh carb rebuild, new fuel lines and filter, and new carter pump.

    Edelbrock carb and kickdown linkage

    I have cleaned mine up a bit since this and my throttle cable bracket is custom, the kickdown adapter attaches to linkage, and the rod tension connects to it, and the throttle cable connects on the very outside using ball….it needs a redo to clean up position and angle but you get the idea….

    Edelbrock carb and kickdown linkage

    My 1405 and C4 302 required an intermediate Edelbrock linkage part added to side of carb and a 2 inch extension of the kickdown lever, Edelbrock sells both as add on parts…this also moved the throttle cable out over the valve cover, and a new throttle cable bracket was hand crafted….or you can...

    New Convertible Top

    Mine doesn’t fit well. Self install. Lol. Is it possible it just needs to sit in the sun and relax a bit since it’s new?

    How much does a missing title affect the value?

    I am in Georgia…I THINK since you registered it as your via bill of sale, which is perfectly legal and allowed in Georgia, you can now go apply for a title and title it in your name. It seems like you have enough documentation….call The tag office and ask. Was easy to title mine, I bought...

    2013 S197- The Other Underappreciated Mustang

    I had the 2013 Grabber Blue MCA edition….I swapped out a black California Special grill…..awesome car, light and maneuverable, and plenty fast… I traded it for a GT after it rolled backwards down a hill and smashed a building while locked in park….Ford said the transmission was fine…..it wasn’t.

    71 302 auto coupe dual exhaust kit

    Yeah, that’s what I bought….installed it by myself, with a little difficulty…it fits, sounds good. A couple of tips…if the H Pipe doesn’t align just right, use a ratcheting strap to flex it into position…and if you test without tailpieces it will sound like crap and make you cry…add the...
