Does anyone know if the Hedman Husler headers give any better ground clearance over Hooker Comps?  I'm currently running FPAs, which give great ground clearance, but want to go with something with larger primaries for my 521.  Thanks!   

Spent a couple days cleaning/waxing my car. Finally decided that it looked nice out today so why not take it on a long drive up the Blue Ridge Parkway and snap some pics. Of course 20 minutes later it poured rain on me lol...

Do it! This is probably the best simple upgrade I have done so far. Had to take my interior out so I could install sub frame connecters. While I was at it, I added Dynamt, new headliner, new carpet, kick panels with speakers, (boy that's a job that'll make you cuss,) and topped it off with a...

Figured I'd share a couple pics of my money pit lol. I always wanted bigger disc up front, but knew I had to go to a bigger rim. So off came the 15's and on went the 17's. I followed some advice on here and went 245/45-17 up front and 315/35-17 on the rear. Nitto G2's on Torque Thrust M...

850cfm Proform carburetor. I bought this off a guy who said it came off a new crate motor he bought. I say this because I couldn't find any markings on it except a partial worn off stamp. He swore it was a Proform 850 though and the venturi measures 1.56, so it's an 850. I ran it for a little...

This is a Hurst competition shifter for our 71-73 Mustangs. No handle. I bought this and never used it so I'll assume it at least needs cleaned and oiled. $75 shipped.

Anyone here running EFI? If so what are you doing about the fuel tank? I've noticed all the aftermarket tanks seem to have the pump/lines coming out of the top. Do our cars have enough clearance between the tank and trunk pan for this to clear? I've searched all over the net, but most people...

Used Weiand Stealth intake for a 429. Standard non CJ ports. I ran it on my car for approx. 5000 miles and now have switched to an Edelbrock RPM for no particular reason other than I needed something to do. I cant say the Edelbrock runs any better, go figure. The Stealth served me well with...

I bought this used awhile back. Can't ID the manufacture, all it had was an SFI sticker. Still has crosshatch pattern on the steel insert. 180 tooth. This was made for the later model 460 engines, but I had it neutral/zero balanced by my machine shop so it can be used with the early model...

I know this is a long shot, but I figured I'd try anyways. Maybe even someone has an idea as where to start. Anyways to the story. I've always known my dad had a 72 Mach 1 Mustang "back in the day." He occasionally talks about it and apparently it was his pride and joy. Unfortunately he...

So when it breaks, I can usually fix it with common hand tools, lol! Cruising around earlier when the throttle cable snapped. A new cable at that. So after a few minutes of thought, I removed the cable completely, then found some wire and tied it to the linkage of the carburetor. Then ran it...

Took a 330 mile round trip yesterday from my town of Pilot Mountain N.C. down to Chesnee S.C. to see a friend. Hopped in the mustang of course since I drive it everywhere especially since I got the TKO in it and the ole 429 knocked off 18.4 mpg at 70-75 mph. It sure is nice to be able to jump...

What is everyone using with mandrel bent 2.5" exhaust? I have the cutouts in my valance and I'm looking to replace the Mach1 style tips with something very similar, but that is 2.5" inlet instead of the factory 2" inlet. Any ideas?

So after my car being down for a few months while it was getting the TKO swapped in, I finally managed to get it cleaned up and out to our towns first cruise in of the year. I'll say right off I spent hours upon hours getting it cleaned and then the whole day keeping it from turning yellow...

I had this installed when I had the small block in my Mustang. Installation kit # 373-7637. Comes with extra levers as I can't remember which ones I had to use. The shifter base is a Hurst Competition Plus, part # 1110211G. $200.00 shipped.

Okay, I'm about to lose my mind here. All I was simply trying to do was swap a 4 speed behind my 429, but apparently nothing is simple. I've located a frame side z bar mount thanks to Don @ Ohio Mustang. Got a 351C mount for the engine side which can easily be modified for the 429 bell...

I have a fiberglass hood for our 71-73 Mustangs I have no need for anymore. It's the Dominator hood that US Body Source sells for $449. It's race weight and I believe if I remember correctly it weighs 38lbs. I ran it on my car for several years until I restored the car and went back with the...

Just a couple quick questions here. Firstly, can the engine side z bar bracket from a small block be modified to fit the 429 bell housing, or is it more trouble than it's worth? Secondly is the frame side bracket something I'm going to have to keep my eye on Ebay for, or is it reproduced? I...

1970 Buick Skylark Custom. 350 4v, auto, a/c. I really didn't need another project, but considering the only rust is in the fenders and battery tray I couldn't help myself. Not sure if I'll keep it or not, but you know how it is when you get a new (old) car. It's like Christmas, lol!

I'm about to get a Ram Air set up soon and was wondering what people were running for intakes? I currently have a Weiand Stealth and I believe it's way too tall, even with a drop base. Thinking maybe a Edelbrock RPM Air Gap, etc? Any help would be appreciated.
