The elephant in the room, is that rip-off Chinese companies are not going to just say "Oh, Sorry, we won't do that again. We've destroyed all of the tooling...". Oh hell no, these rip-off Chinese companies are making too much money to just stop. They'll re-name, re-package, and they are...

Insert Napoleon Dynamite saying ".......lucky....."

You know, I'm the same way. Anytime someone in a movie just gets into an aircraft and starts it up in seconds, I groan. Whenever I see car chase scenes and the soundtrack has the car just rowing through gearchange after gearchange when they're almost always an automatic, I roll my eyes. And...

I'm kinda intrigued by people who want to go with an EFI system, when , for the most part, it appears those same people have difficulty to overhaul or troubleshoot their carburetor. Carburetors are simple, reliable fuel delivery units, and perfect for the type of engines used in our Mustangs...

Another good lookiing 71-73 Mustang! Great car, Congrats on joining us, from Boise , Idaho.

Well silly, obviously it's a much larger version of a Poon!

I believe the Mach 1s did all come with the more robust " competition suspension" , stock. The four-barrel , and Boss cars I believe had the staggered shocks. I think the Boss and other 4-speed cars probably had even heavier leaf springs, but don't quote me on that. Some of the guys here have...

There's a Fairlane/Torino/Galaxie Restoration Parts company called Dearborn Classics, that sells the Tasca reproductions. This is an old catalog so price , I'm sure, is changed.

This is chrome, and about 11" long...click on it to see the entire metal emblem.

How many of us are lucky enough to have a Ford dealership emblem that's your name????

I know the Tasca Ford dealer emblems are being reproduced. In the sixties, Tasca was a big player in offering High Performance Fords. I believe Bob Tasca was involved with the '68 428 Cobra Jet Mustang being built.

Money is tight?? Likely you should not be considering any sort of engine swapping.

I was aware of just how crappy the "Pro-Comp" aluminum heads are, years ago, when doing engines at Valley Head Service. The guys in the cylinder head department would always show me destroyed cyl heads, a lot goes sideways when racing, but the Pro Comp heads had issues right out of the box. As...

Coming along...... finally, the swap that started it all, the Australian cylinder heads. Previously, the heads were cleaned, magna-fluxed ( crack checked ), and the rocker pedestals were machined down for screw-in studs and guide plates. I just had hardened exhaust seats put in, new guides...

I've always thought that Ford should have used the flip-open cap on the Boss 351, as I think it appears to be racier than the twist -on, but that's not what happened. Oh well, I'd still take the Boss any day over my Mach.

I believe the twist-on cap is correct for the Boss.

My guess is that it's a transmission oil cooler. The A/c condenser is full size as the engine coolant radiator, but skinnier, and mounted in front of the coolant radiator. Of course, how would anyone really know exactly what you have, without a photo?

I had to trim the one I got from NPD to fit . I'm thinking that the plastic baffle is made wide to fit possibly cars with skinny radiators. I don't remember if I replaced the radiator that came with the car, or not, but on my car, the flap only needs to be half as wide to bridge the gap. This...

Sheriff.....that's what I thought. When I first bought my car, it had an Edelbrock intake and four barrel, and had all of the ram air system . It was kinda freakin me out that lots of people seemed to be talking about clearance problems, and I don't really remember having any issues. I had a...

So, what I'm seeing here, is that everyone has had to toss their factory "ram air" air filter assembly, regardless of model of aftermarket intake, because all of them are too high to close the hood over.
