Non-FE Discussion Forum / Re: Wilwood front disc brakes on 67-69 mustang

rcodecj i Think those brakes overpower the tires you
can mount on 3,5 inch Wheels so absolutly no reason
to go with bigger brakes the tires is the limitation

For what it's worth the Wilwood kit on the front of my 69 Mach 1 saved 40 pounds over the stock disc brakes.  Seems like that is pretty much in line with what rcodecj measured.  Mine also came with spacers, but they were wider, .060" I think.
Hmmm thats the weightsaving my wife tell me i need to do to my self ::) ::) ::)

I have one of those intakes and you could order
them for 2bbl Rochester so there is material
att the base to drill them for Rochester
and open upp the runners to match
if that make any difference i dont know
but im going to try that when and if i have
any spare time

Its 20 years since i had a Mustang but if my memory
is right the reinforcements  from the convertibel was
reproduced.
Inner rockers,torqe boxes,behind rearseat from wheeltub
to wheeltub, if you want a "stock"look

(just a pointles reflection but)
I have worked on a lot of Mustangs for customers
and it apears like the Mustangs sold new in Sweden
all had the torque boxes and the "export"brace even the six cylinder ones
when the ones imported later had sometimes non tq box
sometimes on drivers side and conv. had on both sides

FE Technical Forum / Re: Anyone running a motor plate?
« on: November 25, 2013, 03:39:41 PM »
If you use a motor plate using the water pump bolt holes how do you get the water pump pulleys to line up properly?

I see two options: 1) machine the block face the depth of the block plate or 2) machine the back of the water pump which really means you also need machine a spare.

Never heard of either of these being being done so I'm probably overlooking a simple solution.

Spacer behind the crank pulley or different  pulleys or shortening the
water pump pulley or make new pulley
I have used all of the alternatives

Those look like the picup Wheels with 5.5 inch
bolt circle I Heard the used 2 centers stacked
on each other and welded together to strengten
the Wheels
on the street you probably dont need that
The tires was probably slicks but i dont sure
about that
Probably they used different tires for ovals
and for the roadcourse

Heo, normally I wouldn't comment on someone's scavenger hunt but you mentioned a bunch of detonators.  If we're on the same page language wise, those are some exceptionally dangerious pieces to have around.  My suggestion would be to call the closest bomb squad and get them to pick the detonators up for disposal.

Now before someone goes off the deep end, I spent 20 years as a military policeman and firearms instructor and now I'm a DHS instructor.  I've seen a lot of explosives in my time and dealt with EOD a huge amount.  My oldest son is USAF EOD even.  And I can tell you that detonators are (many times) more dangerous than bulk explosives themselves.  I'd get them removed by a professional ASAP.

Yes i know old explosives are dangerous and i dont want to play around with them
But the detonators are empty they had saved them for aluminium scrap
to melt down i dont think they had thrown then in the Owen if they were explosive ;D ;D

But there was two guys a couple of years ago in the same Town where the foundry was.
 That had found a bunchof hiden weapons and among them lots of artillery Shells
.And Blew up the garage and them selfs to.
 The bomb squad found 30-40 Shells spread around the house
They still find hiden weapons in Finland every year when they tear down old houses
and so on
