It has been so long I have a hard time remembering. I think I used the JMC Motorsports kit. It was over $400 :( But there are far cheaper ways to...
Yeah. You had the same problem my Maverick had a few times and I never did solve why it kept running. I figured I had a bad ignition switch. Still...
Cant beat the toploader for toughness. When I originally was looking for an OD manual trans I briefly considered that weird OD toploader from the...
What motor was in it? I had a 2.0 4-Speed 72. And it ran great....Once I put the Pertronix in :)
One thing's for damn sure. We raised the Jolly Roger and sailed this thread off into the sunset :) Well I hope to get my 331 (sitting in...
OK. I'll tell you where you're wrong and where you're right. OK. In first at over 6200 RPM I am at a little over 40 MPH. You were right. I was...
I'm getting what you're talking about. I just don't get how you can make that assumption about a car you've never driven. Mine is a manual...

Well, I believe electronic fuel injection and boost were made for eachother. :) Yeah. I figure that's a good combo. I just want reliable and...
Not much. Maybe a little Vortech or Paxton with 5-8 PSI. I have a 9.55:1 331 with AFR 185s. just a healthy top end increase :)
Leave the 4.62s! Put in an AOD. Turnes 4.62s into 3.10s in 4th :)
Any updates? I'm looking at the Powerjection 3 myself. I read it can handle boost :)
Check for number eight in the oil pan. They end up there sometimes.
That guys nuts. The BOSS 302 only came in 1968 Shelby Mavericks.
