Do you have any pictures of your old car?

 

love that color combo!

 

Thank you sir!

 

I have some pictures somewhere I will have to look for them,i was wondering what size slicks do u run and what size rim and backspace rear wheels u have.also what kind of engine combo do u have,stall as well and do u like the 3.40 gears?reason ask this is my current 72 grabber has 4.11 gears with 2500 stall and a blueracer 292-512 lift cam and I was thinking about removing the 4.11s for 3.55 or 3.40 so I can drive it more

 

The Mickey Thompsons I had on the car are 26x10.5x15. The rear wheels are 15x7 Weld Rodlites with 4.5" backspacing. My regular 'street' rear wheels are 15x8 Weld Rodlites with 4.5" backspacing and 255/60/15 radials.

My car has a late 80's model Mustang 302 roller motor with iron GT40 heads. It has a small cam (I think it may be an E303), Edelbrock Torker intake and a 600 Holley vacuum secondary carb. It has long tube headers with 3" dual exhaust and Flowmaster mufflers.

The car has a C4 trans with a shift kit and a stock stall converter. I like the 3.40 gears! With the 27" tall rear street tires that I run the car turns about 2,500 RPM's at 60 MPH which makes it not too bad to run on the highway.

My car had 4.62's in it when I bought it and it was just too much gear to try and run on the highway very much. I tried to find some 3.55's, but wasn't able to and 'settled' for the 3.40's.

BTW, see if you can find those pictures!

 

i will look this weekend for the pictures,my car had the torker II intake ,thought about replacing it with a performer rpm that I have .what do ya think is it worth it or should I keep the singleplane,also thanks for the info on ur car

 

With the 3.40 gears and the stock stall the single plane Torker intake leaves alot to be desired under 2,500-3,000 RPM's, after that it does decent. I think it does better on your combo with the stall and lower rear gears. If you switch to 3.40 or 3.55 gears the dual plane might be a better choice.
