Terri's 1970 grabber- suspension- a view from under

Check w/ "71 Gold" he has a 347, headers and C4. I think he makes crossmembers for the C4. Anyway, check w/ him - Might want to PM him.

 

Do a search, and see if the Doug Thorley shorties fit those heads, somewhere on here, someone listed a bunch of heads they fit...it's been awhile.

 

thank you

Thanks Dave and Mojo. will check with both of those suggestions. Appreciate the info.

those heads exhast ports are in the stock location. im sure that the m2 people will know what headers will fit. there is a dedicated thread to m2 swaps in the tech section. i havnt read it but it may have the info you seek. also you may get a faster answer asking the question in the tech section.

 

Good thinking Bryant.. Thank you.. I will go post in the tech section and thanks for your suggestion.

to JDHill

Hey JD.. I jsut wanted to update you on the info that I gave regarding headers-- the JBA's arent fitting. I think Im going to have to go with shorties or custom made ones.. will know later this weekend.. we put the motor in last weekend and things werent fitting the way I want them too. The valve cover is hitting the break booster, and the headers are hitting the firewall-- plan to figure it all out starting tomorrrow.. just wanted to let you know.. I dont have the answers yet..

Hi Sugarkukie I noticed you bought Corbeau seats was wondering what mounting brackets/tracks you are using?Im thinking of buying a pair myself. I'm also very interested in the 4 link rear setup it looks great

Hi Shaun,
Thanks for looking at my project.
I used the universal brackets for the seats. I did have to have some little brackets fabricated in addition and welded on as the floor of the maverick is so uneven. I just dont think they make a bracket that is "ready to run" with the maverick.. it all takes a little adjustment.

If anyone is looking for seats, those Corbeau Sport seats Terri picked for MityMav are absolutely perfect for those cars. I am so jealous of how they look in her car.

Where do I see the pics?

 

Hi Terri
Where did you buy the universal brackets That's probably the way to go. I thought of maybe ordering brackets for a mustang of the same era, but I'd still need to make some changes I assume.The floors are uneven in the Mavericks. About your Art Morrison 4-link did you need to fab any of the parts for it or did it a come as a kit. I'm trying to figure out the best setup for my car. Thanks

Shaun

 

meticulous detail and utmost quality...

 

Now that's the truth

 

I might have to take pics..not sure I have any on here. Opps. I bought the Corbeau Sport seats.. look really nice. then had the back seat upholstered to match. They just got done with it yesterday. Im very happy!!!

 

The deal that I bought the seats from had the universal brackets. I'll try to find the paperwork so I can give you his name.

The 4 link was installed for me by a local rod and custom shop. Im pretty sure it was all there and they did the welding and putting it together. We called Art Morrison and told them what we wanted to do and they asked for a few measurements and then sent it all directly to the shop. They were really great to work with. I did have to come up through the floor with the bars-( it wasnt a simple bolt in-- hehehe) -- but we cut the back seat and rewelded some frame adapters so I can still have the back seat in. The other thing we had to do was cut the lower half of the drive shaft safety loop on as it was too low to the ground once it was all installed. But we cut it and capped it-- no problem.
Thanks for checking out my project.. sorry Im so late with the answers, its been a little busy around here and I havent been on the forum for a while. I'll do better.
