Thanks.
I'm going to make a MC bar. I'm asking if anyone knows the distance from one side of the engine bay to the other, shocktower to shock tower,...
The deck height of the 221/260/289/302 blocks remained the same at 8.206 from 1962 to 1977 and on into the 5.0 to 1998. Only the Boss 302 had a...
Got it. That's why I'm asking if anyone knows what the factory distance between the shock towers is so I can fab some.
You can buy a Monte Carlo bar for an early Mustang. If I knew the right dimension for a Mav, I could fab one. They are commonly used to tie the...
You're talking 40 year old stuff here. My recommendation is getting the casting numbers off the block, heads, crank so we can see where we are....
Changing the oil and filter is never a bad thing. :tup:
Pedal and sweat Who's callin' me old. Better watch youself, I'm federally protected now! I know my late model cars run at 210*, but I'm still...
Smarter than me I was dumb enough to do my 88 5.0 Mustang. Boy, that was fun. And, since I'm not a very fast learner, I did it on my 85 Turbo...

Here's how I do it: Rotate crank to get #1 piston to timing mark on damper (check a Chilton's or other manual for timing specs) on the...
Really? Come on guys, I'm new here, so let me in on the secret. I know he's really Ricky Bobby! :drive: :bowdown:
Anyone have any before and after pictures on these spring installs?
I have found eBay to be a bit cheaper than the retailers. However, most eBayers won't warranty it. Your choice.
Hey, lost track of the fact we were talking about a '76! :cry: The Pertronix is minor improvement over the Duraspark, except for doing away...
No reason to be sorry Vern, no worries. This is a public forum. You just asked a question. Keep us posted on your progress. And, disregard the...
Huh? Actually the 8" that came out of my Mav is 50" backing plate to backing plate. The 8.8 in my 88 Mustang is 53".
8.8? At the risk of starting a "which is best" war, and unless you just stumble on a deal for a 9" (good luck, all the brand X guys bought them...
