Thanks HRP. I submitted my request. I'm still trying to figure out all the animus towards a a bunch of folks that, from what I could see over the...
You'd be doing a bunch of folks a big service if you could find way to save it.
Anyone have experience with the mounts/trans crossmember/headers from Crites for the FE? Searching really only turned up info on the 429/460...
Ignore the colors. Assuming the car is still original, the negative terminal of the battery connects to the solenoid. The positive terminal of the...
Glad this popped up. It's been on my to-order list for a while, now. Just placed my order with Grainger - they seem to have the best price.

“This is my first drag car so I’m learning how important it is to get the right gears, converter, and suspension combination. It’s great on the...
Like the article says, it's been a known problem for a long time, but the corn & soy producer's lobby strong armed the Bush Administration into...
And this isn't anything new. There's 120 years of history of this, and anyone not familiar should do a Google search on Standard Oil, Teddy...
Capitalism works by charging what the market will bear. I don't know why people have such a hard time making the connection between oil companies...
A Starliner is on my shortlist. It would slot in nicely between these two - [ATTACH]

You mean drying up by pumping near record amounts of crude oil out of the ground right now?...
I finally broke down and bought one last year when trying to sort out some overheating & vapor lock issues on my '64 Galaxie with an FE. It really...
I don't see EVs as a threat to traditional ICE classics any more than outboard motors were a threat to sailboats. There's probably more sailboats...
Simplicity, reliability, power, novelty? And if nothing else, it seems completely within the original spirit of hotrodding what you have with...
Steve Magnante just did one of his junkyard crawls on a couple of longroofs - [MEDIA]
Not on mine. The holes are 14 1/4" on center, 4 3/4" down from the top plane, and parallel. One thing, though - these are hand fabricated and so...
So this took longer than I intended, but here is an original Goodell crossmember I still have sitting on a shelf. This was for a '55. I tried to...
Diamond Back tires. https://dbtires.com/ I have bought two sets from them. Got four of these Auburn pie-crust WWW last summer to replace an old...
I do. I have a new Goodell cross-member that I never installed. If you're willing to do up the drawing to share with the group, I can lift all of...
Man, the things that people get themselves into a knot over. :rolleyes: As a long time subscriber, it's sad to see Uncle Tony has been dipping...
Actually, the topic of this thread is about going very fast with new technology that is being made both more practical and affordable by Ford....
Yeah, I can certainly see how Ford, by offering an EV crate motor, is a threat to our old cars, not to mention the American Way of Life™. It's...
I think this is true for a lot of clubs these days. I belong to a couple of other clubs (Galaxie and Hudson), and the FB groups are far more...
Hate to be that guy, but something doesn't add up here. They're still selling the unit that they claim the EPA fined them for, as are a lot of...
I've been following along here and on the main thread for a bit now, and haven't joined in despite starting (and then deleting) a few replies. I'm...
I don't have personal experience with these folks, but have seen them recommended in the past. https://www.shocks2springs.com/...
For a '55. With Aerostar springs up front, new leafs in back, and new sway bars front and back, the extra boost from the KYB shocks was just too much.
Just as a heads up - I got the shocks though Rock Auto and paid $17 for the front 82026. One of those shocks had a big black sticker on the case....
