Car started well this am. Drove to the local Cars and Coffee, went to leave and the oil light flashed on while trying to start the engine. This also happened two weeks ago the engine quit while...

Thanks Dave, Will do. It's pretty laid I usually get classed with all the other Mustangs and generally do OK.

Same bat time same bat place (see previous UFO event post). I'm not running in this one. I will be at the Can-Am Mini challenge at Mid Ohio. Fifty vintage Minis are registered to race. Should be an...

True dat, only repeating what the dude said. Don't know if something changed in mfg.

I was at an all Mustang show in Ashville Oh. last Saturday and met the owner of HO Fibertrends a company that produces fiberglass panels for various Mustangs. It turns out he owns 4 SVO's apparently ...

Our local SCCA pulls in up to 200 cars and takes a similar amount of time. Our club is less structured. Hope you get to run soon. Cheers

Hi Mike, There's a noise ordinance 'til noon Sunday, usually get 30-50 cars...get 4-6 runs, finish around 3-3:30. Cars are loosely classified and run pretty much round robin. More informal and about...

United Ford Owners AutoX Sunday May 25th at Columbus Motor Speedway. Tech at 10:30; first car run approx. Noon.

Glad there's another old f##t that owns one of these. Turned 72 in March. My few mods seem to have worked pretty well. If you look at the throttle body through the hose that connects it to the...

I too really like the Hankooks. I have about 20 autocross passes on them and they really stick, though not quite as well early the season when the temps are in the 50's.

I usually say rare but not valuable. It did gain a little respect when I bested 8 other 'tangs including a 427 Rousch and a blown 4.6 twin cam in a well turned out '70 stanger at a local solo.

United Ford Owners hold their first event of the season May 12th, Tech at 11am, first run at noon.
Location is Columbus Motor Speedway, These tend to be low key events- autocross laywers are banned.

I found a set of 2010 Bullit wheels on ebay, nearly new, for under $100 each. I had the spokes painted to match my 1D body. The rims were mounted with Hankook 235 45 17's. The 86 is at standard ride...

Guess I shoulda tried the parts I had first, I liked the idea of the BOV being preturbo, but I used the fitting from Stinger along with their BOV. The hose fitting diameter dictated the location of...

I have an '86 with a t3/t4 and a TC intercooler and stock throttle body. Fuzzy logic tells me I can place the BOV on either side of the intercooler. Is there a good reason to place it closer to the...

Thanks Mike, I'll pass that info on. Cheers

A Merkur friend of mine ran across a Merkur with a modified engine (possibly not native to the car) which has an inline intake manifold rather than the square type . He was asking if it was possibly...

I did this swap (t3/4t Boport) a few months ago and my memory for it may have some spaces. I removed the manifold and turbo together( note the replacement turbo was not in stock, so have it in hand...

Since you've ported the intake side you might want to flow the cast iron header. Low to no cost and easy to do but time consuming. I made the mistake of doing in the driveway forgetting that the iron...

Cheap way to soup up your SVO.... sorry

What Patrick said. Remove the stock SVO brackets, the front braacket of the turbo coupe intercooler will bolt to the front manifold bolt. You should probably use heavier tubing available from Stinger...

Sorry got it off the flyer . Try www.unitedfordowners.com should be in their newsletter

Thanks for the help! Got it sorted this week and had great fun at the UFO autox (6 runs) today..... took ' beerplease' for a ride -cool to have an SVOer in the neighborhood
