Mustang Tech

Looks fantastic!! Love the colour!

Ah you put the pony on the grill you can just see in in the pictures.

Was in the neighbourhood today so dropped into Duggo - Oz was good enough to whip up some seat rail extensions to add an extra 75mm legroom which has transformed the cockpit - co pilot is 5 foot 2 so no extra legroom required...








Thanks champion

Cheers

Is that better now? Dont forget you have those other seat belts as well

Quick update - 2200klm on the odo, drives nice on the open road but just missing that killer instinct - something not quite right.
SP suggests fueling, gauge shows 6 pounds from regulator at idle and up the rev range - next is secondaries spring as this carb has come from Rod’s 408 stroker that had a heavier spring - check in the spares box and dig out the yellow spring, switch and went for a drive.
Different car when the secondaries open fully - now we’re talking
Still needs timing checked and AOD tweaked but it’s a huge step in the right direction...
Rubber mounted the Holley blue today, can still be heard but it’s not as overpowering as it was before.
Have a slight diff whine on the accelerating edge between 90 & 100 klm p/hr, already using thicker diff oil so I’ll just crank the stereo and stay above 110 - hopefully it will fade in time.

Astro got an itch that he needed scratched.
So last week we installed this setup for him. (Jacko and myself)

ITs got a good sound and when fully open its actually not too loud.

You good 'ol boys cut and weld pretty well.

Not too loud? You can't hear Harley's when this blue beast rolls past

Hey Astro on your cross member where you have packed it down with washers to clear the sump I want you to get some square bits of the correct thickness steel made up. This will spread the load as if it were bolted up hard. I suspect it may be moving around how you have spaced it currently. It needs to load the entire area, now all the load is on the bolts you don't have the friction between the surface.

engine crossmember???

Yeah the engine was rubbing once the new mounts settled, I remember him telling me he had local bloke space the cross member looks like they have packed it with washers that wont be good enough, it will flexing for sure, mustang are piss weak.

Ill look if its back at my place sometime and if still like it ill sort it out?

You can see in the picture at you place its just has small washers under it
