dont forget that with a convertible you will need atleast a 5 point welded in rollbar to go faster then 13.49.


i would deffently build up that C4, and throw boost at that car. upgrade the reared too, and youll be flying.

Also there are pan filled C4's, and case filled. Don't know which is better. I hope I was some help, have fun with the build

1. how can i tell whether his mustang has a big bell housing or small bell housing without removing the transmission?

2. If it does have the big, everything should be fine aside from moving the crossmember, right?

3. if it does not have the big bell housing, do i just
a) buy a 157 tooth flywheel and it'll bolt right up?
b) and to put the aod in the '70, do i just put a 164tooth flywheel on that ho?
c)do the flywheels interchange?

I don't know anything about C4s.

But wanted to remind you that your going to need a mass air conversion for that car. Just because I didn't see you mention it....
