Default holla!!

IM back, i decided not to sell my mustang partly because i cant. i got tired of ppl trying to rip me off, told one guy to go stick his offer in a very dark hole. i look up the numbers on carb which i should've done in the first place, and as it turns out, its a dirt track racing carb.....so it was even bigger than i thought it was. so now i have a whole new world of problems. also found out my motor was origionally a fuel injected motor (not suprised ).
heres what i need to get fixed at this point in time

power steering drop bracket
carb (new)
intake
rear end
go back to my c4 tranny instead of this ****ty c5 with a stall converter
4disc brakes
5lug conversion
new tires and rims
new power steering pump
new 130amp alternator
and i need some info on mildon oil pans i dont have a dip stick right now b/c the origional one wont fit, so i need to tap a new hole somewhere so i can fit a new one anyone got any idea where i can do this!

thats about it for now.

I am glad to see that you are still with us, I have quite a few "spare parts" that might help you out some. I do have (should) a power steering bracket from a 70 351 that came off of an LTD. I have some (new) tie rod ends for a 66 with power steering we are not going to be using. And as mentioned, I can get you a working edelbrock 600, just let me know.All for shipping only.

I hope you don't, but you will probably get a tour in Iraq in the near future, and there you can save a ton of money with hazardous duty pay and all.

RAH! i leave in jan 09, yeah im looking foward to that too, it'll be fun. nah the guy that sold it to me was only telling me what he was told by his buddy that rebuilt it, but what do i care, i got a running 302 with carb, headers, heads, and everything for 450 dollars. So i would consider it a good buy still.

I have a 7.5 rear on it left over from my I6 swap. im currently looking for a 9" around here, and i think i know where to get it for 250 out of a 66 or a 68, im not sure which one i've only seen it in quick passing.
