Happy New Year!
A couple of years ago, I replaced my clutch, pressure plate, and throw out bearing and I also went with a MM aluminum clutch quadrant and adjustable cable. At first everything was...
I don't know if it's my crappy laptop speakers but that SVO sounded pretty bad ass. Also, I like the IC location, no need to worry about if you can run AC or radiator location! Lol
Good eye with the hatch plastic.
Mike, you mean this isn't your dealership? Lol
Does anyone know who did the work on this car? In the video they say the engine and trans were rebuilt. I'm curious how it would end up at a...

Found this on FB Marketplace.
I used the MM adjuster. I don't think it's adjusted out all that much probably about an inch. By the way I was under the car last night at looked at the clutch cable. It looks like I did grind the...
I did shim it but I'm going to recheck it.
Yes the cable fit fine on the transmission end. You have to remove a piece from the cable off of the firewall end so it can be used with the cable...
Hi I went with the maximum motorsports quadrant and an ATP Y220 cable (Rockauto has them for $14.69). You'll also need a firewall adjuster to adjust cable play. I was happy with everything at first...
Looks like the trick is finding someone that sells them, all I can find is stainless.
Interesting thanks for the information!

I am just worried about the inserts fatiguing due to heat resulting in an exhaust leak. I've had my turbo off twice now for leaks. Once was my fault for using sub par studs.
Thanks Mike let me know what you want for it.
Thanks Mike I was afraid of that. I guess I'll search for a new E6 or maybe one of the Gnari manifolds.
Hey all I bought a used ported E6 and sent it to the machine shop to remove the turbo studs and re-surface the turbo and head mounting areas. When I picked it up the machinist said that there wasn't...
Yeah I have a set of the SVPU spats. I haven't tried to paint them yet. What did you do to prep them?
Thanks Mike!
I probably will just go with the valve job and not worry about the hardened seats. Do you guys think it would be worth going to stainless valves?
Si valves has these:(The catalog says they are...
Don't forget cheap!

I'll sell you mine! I was amazed at how many cracks were in mine yet it stayed on the car, then I made the mistake of touching it and it literally fell on the floor! My other spat has started...
It's funny I was just talking to my machinist about doing a valve job and installing hardened seats in my 2.3 head. He said the exhaust seats are what cracks and this is mainly due to too high...
I don't if anybody noticed but Fox Mustang Restoration has NOS Headlights and inner and outer marker lights for sale on Ebay.
I've been thinking of getting caster camber plates and was looking on the GW site and they have the MCF-1 plates on sale for $113.65. Anybody have any experience with them? Thanks!
Just for the hell of it I'd like to track down the first new car I bought, an 86 1C with the factory sun roof. I don't have the VIN but I bought it from McCoy Lincoln Mercury in Rising Sun MD. I sold...
