    Fuel gauge went out?

    I went for a drive the other day and saw that my gauge was as empty as I've ever seen it. Naturally, I figured I was just out of gas (as usual) and went to fill it up. After doing so I realized that the gauge hadn't moved at all so I went ahead with some tests. I checked the connection at the...

    flywheel confusion!

    hi all, Well, the " throw in" flywheel I got when I bought my four speed looks like more like a throw away..... I got to cleaning it up, and noticed the casting # was E 1T E AA. I think that makes it a 50oz? I think I need a 28oz......right? Can anyone confirm? Is there some way to know for...

    Anyone Running a welded differential?

    I would like a Posi-trac 3rd member ideally, but budget always prevails and I have no idea where I can find a Posi for an 8 inch for a reasonable price. I know that I can weld it up, but that is known to be terrible for handling. Anybody have a welded diff that can share their experience...

    Could The 71-73 Mustang have been an AERO-WARRIOR? (+"artist" Renditions!)

    Ford ended up using the Torino for their stock car racer, but what if they didn't? Given body mods similar to that of the super bird such as a nose cone or a more effective spoiler, the '71 body style Mustang might have been a serious competitor in the hayday of oval-track racing. The Mustang...

    Modern Car Culture? What Happened?

    What happened to car style over the ages? How did going fast in a straight line with roaring v8's and burning tires (d)evolve into things like "STANCENATION" and the sea of 4 door Subaru's, BMW's and assorted "Rice Burners". All carried along on enormous rims, thumping bass and peeling...

    HELP: Brake pedal travel?

    I redid my brakes a few months ago and they seem a little bit weak. The pedal travels about 2.25 inches then starts to brake. From that point, the pedal travels maybe 1.5 or 2 inches before hitting what feels like a stop and the pedal wont go down any further. That doesn't seem like that much...

    Sprint FB 2 Mach 1 clone. Whats it worth?

    WHAT DO Y'ALL THINK? I was curious as to how much my mustang is worth given its abnormal specification. It was a 1972 Sprint car only about 3000 made the way that it is. Previous owner wanted a mach 1 so he painted it and added stripes and spoiler and replaced the interior. Today it has...
