I've got rebuild manual online! This isn't an offical manual but it goes into great depth including setting backlash and endplay, something that...
It just depends on how precise you want/need to be. Really a transmission is like a rearend, backlash and endplay *should* be checked. However...
Some info on late model swaps at http://tech.maverickgrabber.com :)
I found it, it's 2.0 MB but pretty well detailed. My ftp server is acting up. If you can handle that large of an email attachment I'll send it to...
Yes I know no more about T5s than I ever wanted to. I know which parts DONT interchange mostly ;) I got my parts from 5speeds.com. They have...
What's a peanut plug? I use NGK V-fires, application for a 1985 Mustang 5.0L 5 speed. They seem to be more resistant to fouling than my old...
The rules were not put into place to make people money. Now THATS a consiracy theory. They may have been overly conservative. But beleive me there...
I agree with PART-TIME. This is one area that can become a big arguement because people have done it all kinds of ways and a lot of times they...
It's an 8" rear with 2.79 ratio. There's a '2.' before the '79' on the tag you just can't see it for the dirt, rust, or bolt. ;)
I don't think the Cal-tracs will work without a solid bushing, and they will tear up bushings too. The whole concept is to prevent spring leaf...
Well you know I wasn't even thinking about the whole EFI thing doh! Yea it will be the same thing as a 5.0L EFI swap basically. Check out the...
A whole new front suspension and a big block or diesel would be just as cost effective? I guess it depends what you can scrounge up. The 3.8L is...
I paid $40 for mine. I have a billet flywheel that has bolt-on weights so you can remove them for 0 balance. Dan you probably want a machine shop...
Who knows the whole story, but the only info I have was CR went from 9.0:1 to 8.5:1 from 71 to 72, then down again to 8.0:1 for 1973. It went from...
Hate to rub salt in the wound TL, but I can't help thinking that someone bought it to shorten it. :o Maybe you can get in touch with them and...
Oh yeah here's my 'source'. I kinda cheated because I made it myself :D but it all came from Ford lit. http://timeline.maverickgrabber.com
As far as I've read there's never been a manufacturer that advertised RWHP. The 302 made 129 HP advertised at the flywheel in the later model...
Well I swapped a 1995 Cobra trans in my Maverick and it was a real pain. I would definitely recommend getting a 83-93 T-5 if you can. The clutch...
Heh who knows man. ;) Cali is fine, going to Miami next week for testing at Homestead. :) Check out Off Topic
I think 71-up is the same as a Mustang. Try Autokrafters. $7 turn signal switch? Holy crap I'll take a dozen! ;)
