    A-pillar trim?

    Anyone used the McLeod Racing Muscle Car 5 trans?

    Externally it appears to look like a T-5 in a new wrapper. The top shift rail is exposed and not hidden within the tail shaft like a T-5. The top cover likely is the same in function as a T-5. It probably has an upgraded gearset like the Astro or G-Force T-5's as the torque handling capacity...

    Ram Air decals

    I didn't like the Argent or Black options so I took a decal to a local graphic design shop and had them make me some out of yellow vinyl to match my paint. A personal touch, but not a single person at any car show I've ever attended has ever questioned me about them.

    hard line pics NICOPP

    Those lines are nice in some respects, but I think they actually bend TOO easily. It's very difficult to keep them straight and OEM looking because every time you touch them they bend and bend.

    I used some contact adhesive from a spray can when I did mine.

    Holley 750 VS

    I am selling the Holley 750 vacuum secondary carburetor that I pulled off of my old engine not even a year ago. There was honestly nothing wrong with it, but on my new engine I had made a good many performance changes and I installed a brand new Pro Systems double pumper onto it to better match...

    My 1972 is having problems :(

    There is no way to check vehicle history by means of the VIN number with cars made prior to 1980. The database does not exist. Can you at least tell by means of the title when the car was imported to the UK? I remember seeing that my 1985 mustang was imported in 1987 by looking at the title...

    My 1972 is having problems :(

    The MOCGB (Mustang Owners Club of Great Britan)would be a great place to subscribe to. They would be a much better local resource for you to get done what needs doing. I would try and find a very small garage in an industrial estate and see if they will help you. Those small guys will usually...

    Can a carburetor be pornographic?

    Looks like it has a dominator style intermediate circuit. Likely dominator metering blocks and fuel bowls too. Probably very similar to the 750 dominators but with shiny custom parts so the 800cfm is prob not far off. "Should" be much more tunable than a std 4150.

    Timing Chain Cover

    That's a pretty good price. I got my new one from Summit Racing and it was about double that cost. It did fit perfect.

    Pensacola Mustang Show March 18-20 2016

    I was there around 10:30 and did not see you. Saw Tubo though and we chatted for a few minutes. I had my wife and one of my daughters with me so I had to keep moving.

    Harmonic Damper Replacement

    Glad you mentioned that. One of my pet peeves. So many people do not and after a short while it can create a mess. After a few years it makes a pretty big mess. FWIW, I installed a Streetdamper on my engine years ago when the original came apart. I wanted one that was one piece, would never...

    Blue Thunder

    It also has the Holley carb flange vs the spread bore for the Autolite 4300. So it's essentially a Boss 351 intake without the markings and a Holley carb flange.

    Pensacola Mustang Show March 18-20 2016

    Would like to see you, but unless the weather looks good I'll probably only make it on Sunday. A lot of driving for not much show if it's raining. I have a friends 92 Fox coupe in my garage I'm working on at the moment and I need it done and gone so I can get on with a project of my own.

    Blue Thunder

    You should be fine installing it straight out of the box. It's a really nice intake manifold for a street car.

    Engine lost all oil, some pistons grabbed

    Maybe it's the plastic that has changed over the years, maybe it is the oil formulation, or a combination of both. You could try a copper capillary tube. Much more durable but it also can have some issues. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/atm-3224 Sounds like you are going electric but I...

    New Cleveland ready to go in!!

    Looks beautiful! Very similar to my build. Will be eager to see your dyno numbers if you ever do so. The only major difference between our builds is you have a roller cam and I have a solid flat tappet cam.

    Upgrade 2bbl to 4bbl

    It may be beneficial but it also may require some tuning. I would not install a used carburetor. Too many issues with them even when redone with fresh soft parts. If your friend is unfamiliar with this procedure there can be some issues. Transmission kickdown linkage may need to be extended...
