Private Classifieds / Torino oil cooler lines
« Last post by gregb on October 28, 2025, 05:32:22 PM »428 Torino oil cooler lines. I have no history on them as they came with a cooler I bought and put in a Mustang. They’ve been off a car for a very long time. Rubber stiff but still bendable. $150 plus shipping or pickup in SoCal, Orange County.

FE Technical Forum / Re: Subframe connectors
« Last post by mike7570 on October 28, 2025, 12:39:15 PM »I was once talking to the owner of RRS about subframe connectors. RRS is also an Australian company that makes Ford suspension parts. He was telling me that they tested just about every frame connector they could get their hands on and more or less said they're not worth the weight they add to the car, which isn't much. He had a setup where he would jack up a corner of the car and measure the flex/twist with dial indicators along the chassis.They are supposed to work with a roll bar/cage to stiffen the chassis and help support it in case of an accident. If he was taking measurements without it being welded into a roll bar or cage I could see it not be worth the effort but I wouldn’t believe his statement if it was.

FE Technical Forum / Re: dual quad 427 sohc intakes
« Last post by FrozenMerc on October 28, 2025, 12:20:53 PM »If you guys are serious about creating a new one, we can probably cast up a handful for much less than $6K each. If Jay is working on the Inline carb version, I can help get a CAD model going for a 2x4 version if needed. I just finished a MEL Blower intake a few months ago, so I know it is possible. A SOHC 2x4 would probably be a bit easier, assuming someone has one we can use to take measurements from.
