My mustang has pretty much sat in the garage ever since I bought it about 3 years ago waiting for a transmission swap. I would run it for 15 min twice a week. One day I noticed a small puddle of rear end oil. Now, with all the time spent at home I decided I'd give it a shot at replacing the...

I am in a bit of a dilemma and wanted to get your suggestions. The FMX on my 73 with a 351C was suffering from “morning sickness”, but the last time I took it for a drive around the block it was slipping and I even thought I might not make it back home. In the end I did make it home but have...

I recently swapped my stock 2 bbl intake and carb for a Weiand X-cellerator I bought used and a new Edelbrock 650 cfm Thunder series carb. My car is a stock 73 351C 2v with a duraspark ignition (bought it like that from the PO) and an FMX. I am having a couple of issues after completing the...

This is my first time owning an FMX car. I have had a 302 with C4 and 351W with toploader in my previous 2 Mustangs. I have a couple of questions, but will address one issue at a time.  When I pull the car out of the garage and into the driveway I've experienced the following symptom. The...

I have been working on trying to get the back up lights to work on the 73 convertible I bought a couple weeks ago. It has a 351C with an FMX transmission. There were no bulbs in the sockets, so I tried that first, but it did not work. I started checking and there is no power getting to the wire...

I bought a 73 convertible last week and had time to start inspecting and messing around with it today. I noticed, since the day I bought it, that there was no vacuum line going from the carb to the distributor. The distributor is not stock, it looks like an electronic ignition type distributor...

I am trying to figure out the best way to swap my C4 for the long tailshaft C6 I got to go with the 460 motor. I know I have the option of swapping the tailshaft for that of a short tailshaft C6, but the transmission show would charge $200. I could try doing it myself, but I have never messed...

I have read many threads about swapping a big block, but have not found one for swapping a 351C. I know the bell housing pattern is the same. So what goes into a swap like this one? Are frame mounts compatible? Will the 302 radiator suffice? Any changes to suspension or steering? Thanks,

A guy is offering this 351w roller block as part of a trade. He's like an hour and a half away so I have not seen it in person. All I got is some pics and was wondering if you guys can tell based off the pics, if the cylinders need honing. The guy says he builds engines for a living and this...

Looking to buy a C4 to big block bellhousing by JW performance. Contact me if you have one available. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

I recently came across a complete 460 motor off a mobile home for $350. The guy said it had 48k miles and worked when it was pulled about 8 months ago. He said he even started it a couple months ago and it threw fire out of the exhaust manifolds. So I bought it... The casting number on the...

I recently bought a 73 Grande with a 302 2v engine, auto tranny, power steering and A/C. I am in the process of rebuilding the carb because it wasn't really driveable with how the carb was performing. Anyways, I used to own a 69 Mach I with a 351w and 4 spd manual transmission, so the loss in...

Hello everyone. I recently (2 days ago) purchased a 1973 Mustang Grande with a 302 2v engine. It has front disc brakes, power steering, AC (currently blows air, which is not cold). It does not have any performance mods from what I can tell. It has a vinyl top which seems to have rust...
