Thank you for that information!

What are the dimensions for the splash shield? Thanks

Looking for the driver side exhaust manifold for my 1971 Mach 1, 429 SCJ. Pictured is the passenger side. I need the driver side. Thank you. 

Tried many times uploading the video of my ride with the the kids, but each time I tried to insert it into the post, nothing happened. After 4-5 attempts to insert the video, I gave up. Have no idea why it will not upload. 

      A good friend of mine visited us from western North Carolina and brought his 6 kids with him. They wanted a ride in the pony car. But you'd never guess what they liked the most: not the throaty sound of the 429 SCJ, or the Grabber Blue paint, or the...

To cure my 1971 Mach 1 SCJ from bottoming out so easily, I removed the leaf springs and installed a new set of springs, bushings, and bolts from Eaton Springs in Detroit. The car does ride a bit stiffer, but still seems to bottom out in rear way too easily. New shocks installed a year or so ago...

My first 71-73 Mustang restoration, a 1972 Mach 1. She was dubbed "Kermit" for obvious reasons. 

Would I buy my current 1971 Mach 1, J Code, Ram Air, 429 SCJ, 4.11.1, again? I bought it completely disassembled, just a mere shell, with a 1000 parts, including motor, tranny, driverline, stored in a container. The Mach 1 had been off the road since 1975. The original owner was killed. It took...

Welcome from west central Florida, Tampa Bay area.

Since I am unable to locate a passenger side exhaust manifold for my 429 SCJ (the original was repaired years ago and done incorrectly; welder said it could not be repaired to last), I'm thinking of using a set of headers. Found a set that will fit at Summit. Does anyone here have experience...

Looking for a replacement for the passenger side, exhaust manifold for my Mach 1, 429 SCJ. Mine has been repaired in the past and is leaking again. Unable to find anyone local to repair it. So, need to find a good replacement. Thanks in advance.

Lost their driver side front wheel. Wonder how that happened? Stud failure?

Thanks Geoff. I added one feature to that particular Mach 1 that was entirely unique. Instead of having the Ram Air flappers open up by putting the pedal to the metal, I added a manual operated cable, attached to a knob (identical to the light switch knob) below the dash; so I could pull on the...

I restored a 1971 Mach 1 in Grabber Lime some years ago--every nut and bolt: rebuilt the 351-4v M Code, C-6 tranny, and repainted the entire car. It had functional 3-spoke rim blow steering wheel, black deluxe interior, Ram Air, AC, full console, roll down rear windows, 650 Holley, Magnum 500's...

As Stanglover correctly noted,  normal driving did not require the extra power steering cooler. But with a high winding 429 SCJ, built for the drag strip, I have to use type F transmission fluid in the power steering system (due to the anti-boiling ingredients in it) as well as the longer hose...

My 429 SCJ is completely rebuilt, everything is computer balanced; new 11.3.1 forged pistons, 0.40 oversized bore, Cam Research cam, polished but not turned nodular crankshaft--maintaining STD dimensions, SCJ rods with new bolts, Crane Roller Rocker arms with poly locks, hardened push rods...

Has anyone successfully repaired a small crack on an exhaust manifold for a 429 CJ/SCJ? If so, how did you do it? Thanks. 

Look forward to seeing what parts are available.

Attached to a pony I restored some years ago: a 1972 Mach 1, Grabber Blue, R Code, 351 HO

Father son projects are bond creators. I have 3 sons and all 3 began their driving phase with a Mustang project with me. Here is one example of a the result of the project. Son's pony was a 1968 GT, 390-4v. Mine was a 1971 M Code, 351-4v.
