Thats why I want to stay away from the heim joints. Seems like too many flex points. I'm thinking something along the lines of what this guy...
It will probably take more than a weekend. If you check the tech articles there is one for doing the I6 to V8 conversion. Lots of baseline info...
Since you already have the tracks, you would just need to make brackets to adapt the new seats to the old tracks. Could be bolted or welded on....
I just use an electric die grinder with a thin cutoff wheel. Way easier than cutting with an angle grinder, because the wheel is perpendicular to...
I'm currently designing something similar to this, but without the heim joints, all solid welded construction. Probably welded to modified shock...
Looking at the Lokar kit it seems it would require the same thing. I don't think I could get away with more than 1.25" protrusion into the tunnel...
Did that too, no change. I always planned on doing away with the duraspark anyways, so this is a good enough excuse. Ordering an Igniter III...
I figured as much.
Well, I cut the Ford plugs off and spliced the wires together to bypass any plug issues. It started, ran like crap, then cut out. Now it won't...
Even then, pretty good chance you can find it here. Ford never put a T-5 or an AOD in a Maverick, but ask the right guys here and they can hook...
I'll try that today. Thanks.
The wiring appears to be in good shape, all the blades in the connectors have dielectric grease on them, so no corrosion.
Got mine through Rock auto, before that I got them through NAPA. They're surprisingly pricey.
Last time I had the Maverick out it drove great all the way to work, then a couple blocks from home started having problems. It started to...
The Lokar kit looks nice, pricey, but nice. My only concern is the routing looks to be very similar to mine; down the tunnel, around the rear...
Just did it this week using a Pinto handle. Complete failure. Seems theres more engineering to an E-brake setup than I anticipated. Back to the...
I don't have the mechanical linkage, nor do I want the pain of having linkage through the headers. I already have the cable setup, and it really...
I was on the fence about doing a 351 swap before this thread started, now I'm totally sold. Need to get the T-5 in first, and make it look like a...
Yep. I've got the bellhousing from the 3.8L Mustang the T-5 came from. Starter won't engage a 157 tooth.
Hmm, makes me wonder. My Mav is having a similar problem. I assumed it was a fuel delivery issue. If sending some seafoam and fresh gas through...
