From what I've read the '67 mounts are different than every other year like many of the '67 parts (LCA, etc.)
What rammed into your nose?

Haha he's said it several times now, a tow hitch from a truck hit it, a family member backed into it in his driveway.

V8 clutch equalizer bar, 5.0 clutch pivot bracket, and other necessary parts have been ordered. So I've got everything but a bellhousing and clutch fork for the clutch stuff. I'm not going cable or hydraulic because its too expensive for me when I get call all of this stuff for under $200.

Once I get paid for ordered the fenders I will be buying motor mounts, and looking at the rest of the fuel system and start saving for the wiring harness. I've got some stock I'm going to sell to buy the engine so I'm not worrying about that yet. I'm going to get everything else ordered first.

Oil pan, oil screen, and oil pan gasket ordered. I think I'm done ordering stuff for a bit.

Hightower2011 I'm also looking at what all JamesW did to his 65. His website is really helpful and detailed on the EFI 5.0 swap.

Yeah I am now, since it took damage. Its not worth spending all the money on it just to lose it when I try and sell it. So I am putting in a EFI 5.0 to make it more fun, and to get better gas mileage. Then I'm going to buy some seat covers so my back doesn't sweat like crazy during the summer because of these seats. Then when at shows I will just pull them off to show the red vinyl seats.

EFI in a classic? thats odd. these cars are fun because in case somethin goes wrong pop the hood and fix it. EFI IMO are kinda complex.
