Has anyone tried cutting the rivet areas off and running a weld bead down the center? You guys think that would clear the header?

Just got my 351C 2V Ford Power Train Headers in. They fit like glove but won't mount up. In my '73 fast back they had a one year only calm system motor mount. I had to smash up my last one to make it over the clam. They hit on the driver side, rear, outer corner of the clam. I am not about to do...

Picked up a power seat for my '73. Realized the switch knob is broken. Has anyone rebuild one or replaced it with another easily?

Okay, a follow up would be: are you sure the bacteria can survive in such high proof environment? Bacteria can grow in beer, maybe even wine on occasion, but hard liquor? Generally that stuff is so strong bacteria cannot grow in it. Do you know what makes ethanol able to be survived at such a...

So even when using a carb built for E-85 it will need to constantly be rebuilt? If this is a problem for all cars? Is acetic acid bad for internal components? Also, E-85 is like 170 proof... How can bacteria grow in that medium, but not standard drinking (hard liquor) alcohol?

I don't personally believe it should be subsidized, the problem is it is. Also a small number of vintage cars buying it or vetoing it won't make it go away. The point of this was to actually discuss the fuel itself, and examine E-85's use and properties. If production costs dropped and gasoline...

I am going to give you all some data on E-85 verses using Premium gasoline. This will be geared to being pro E-85, please READ THE ENTIRE POST before screaming NO at the top of your lungs. I am aware Ethanol has negative effects on hoses, gaskets, and has a possibility of corrosion on our...

That is not original at all. I would always crack the fenders to verify before I would ever buy one.

I have a flip style "deluxe gas cap", on my mustang. I will NOT change this for a locking gas cap. I live in a college town and am worried an educated idiot may try to either steal fuel or cause damage. Has anyone ever seen a locking filler neck or an insert of any kind to do such a thing?

I messaged you. I thought you had a C-6 with that hooked up. Love to see those pictures.

Please Jump in and correct any misinformation. First off, I have already rebuilt my FMX and have no interest in changing over to another transmission to "make it easier" or "upgrade" to a C-6. From all the digging around I have done, it appears almost or no one has been able to successful mount...

This is excellent! I was wondering I see a bunch of reviews and comments saying it is missing the adapter for the carburetor... Did you bolt it up or need additional parts?

Also, what one did you purchase RCH71?

I don't mean to high jack this thread, but I would LOVE pictures. I need to put this in my car.

Ordered a set and just got them in. anonymous picture share sites

Dakota Digital Upgrade is going down. Wish the retro gauges they offer had the center cluster option... Only the Digital set as that, that's why I'm installing these over the others... Please chime in if you have already installed these and have any tips. New plastic covers on order from Don @...

Thank you!

Ended up ordering Dakota Digital gauges... DIDNT REALIZE I NEEDED THE OLD HOUSING!!!! Sold a working set to someone that needed it a long time ago... I need just a decent plastic housing for my new gauges to go in. Anyone have anything?

Question for you guys on Ford Powertrain Application headers. I see a selection for only 2v/4v. What I don't understand is the 2v & 4v have different exhaust ports, do they not? What one are these built for, it seems to me they would be sloppy on the 2v's? I have a performance built 2v, and...

I appreciate the responses! Mustang7173, I purchased a bunch of random parts and sets for options. That means I will actually have to search to actually install them properly. I have the original ford manuals, but will need to find real world examples of installations and such. Its like I...
