Did yours fit? The one I ordered from AK did not line up with the factory holes on my radiator support. I will have to modify it some for proper...
Good info. My car was equipped with the seal but it was in sad shape. It is a factory 302/ac car but the ac was not connected. I recently...
My car is missing the radiator support to hood seal. I am still running the original radiator and fan with no cooling problems so far. Does this...
Interesting article about SMS in the April 2021 issue of Hemmings Classic Car.
Bought a front ACP bumper from RPS out of California. Made in Taiwan but appears to be of good quality. Probably not show chrome but still pretty...
So has anyone bought one of these yet? If so, I would like to know about the quality and fit. The last time I checked with Tri-City in Tenn. the...
Auto Krafters now has a listing for a rear aftermarket 70-73 bumper for $469.00 plus freight. It is also listed on Ebay for $529.00.
Had one of those in my pan when I had the o-rings in my 73 replaced recently. Mechanic said the same thing as Rick.
I went with the 65-66 mounts. They are about 1/8" shorter than the stock mounts. The stock shock tower braces have to be slightly modified to fit...

I recently removed the heads on my 73 302. There was no indication that the heads had ever been off but the head gaskets were McCord brand and had...
While clearance with the shock towers on our cars is always an issue, swapping heads with the engine in place is far less work than pulling the...
I used 4 leafs which cured the sagging rear but as TeeEl stated, the ride is a little stiff. Not sure of the spring rate or even what brand they...
According to George Reid in his book about Ford v-8s the deck height for the 1973-76 302 was increased from 8.206" to 8.229". The heads on my 73...
I stand corrected. My point was that the compression drop was not just due to the heads.
Things must have gotten progressively worse into the mid and late seventies when all the smog components were added. My girlfriend (wife now)...
I have read where the compression ratio is 8:1 and 58 cc heads were used on a 73. Some info shows 138 hp and some shows 140 hp so I am not sure...
Has anyone used Goodmark Industries for plating a bumper? Tri-city now wants $600 for a front skinny bumper without a core and $500 with a core. A...
Powder coating is a good idea. I scuffed mine and painted them with high temp paint which peeled off. It would have been a minimal cost for...
I could not justify the cost of the Doug Thorleys for my car either. I had the 88400s installed before I read about the modification and was...
