I had my mustang out a few time this year with no issues until now.I took it out of the gargae and parked it in the driveway for a few hours, no issues when i did this. A few hours later I went out to move it back into the garage, the transmission lever would go into each gear (C4 Transmission) but no gear would engage, the engine would only rev. I assumed the transmission fluid was low, so I added 1/2 litre. Took it out for a drive and came back to check the transmission fluid and now it is reading over full, so the transmission fluid was not the issue. Any suggestions on what the issue could be? It seems to shift fine now.

The '70 FMX used a NSS mounted within the shifter mechanism. Make sure you are using a C4 and not the FMX trans. If you don't want to swap manual levers (requires dropping the pan, removing the valve body, etc.) I would get the '70 C4 NSS and then simply use male and female bullet connectors to connect to the '66 wiring coming out of the firewall. OR if you don't mind cutting the plugs off of your brand new wiring you can simply buy a four-flat trailer plug and use that for both the NSS and the firewall wiring for a nice and neat solution. HTH... Mark .

I have a 67 coupe with 289 engine. I rebuilt my control valve and bought new, concours correct hoses with the correct bends. A previous owner installed generic hoses incorrectly, and I need a source to see how exactly the hoses should be routed and placed. The hose bracket looks to be installed in the wrong location also. Does anyone know a source where I can see a factory correct installation of these hoses? The shop manual for 67 is worthless for this.

I think either will work but you don't want to mix the two. If yours has red stuff in it, use ATF. If it has clear fluid in it, use power steering fluid. Thats my rule of thumb for unknown vehicles anyway. If you are filling a new system, use the specified fluid. Just my opinion.

idj.. nice Zbar pictures... dont' forget that you have to maintain.. the height from center to keep the push ratio the same.. i was looking in the motor mount catalog sitting on top of my monitor... where is handy... M2286 is the proper mounts for some motors. http://i.ebayimg.com/t/1966-71-FAIRLANE-TORINO-FALCON-FT-MOTOR-MOUNT-2286-PAIR-/10/!By9gSTwB2k~$(KGrHqEOKi8E)BEKGK2cBMT5OE)))Q~~_35.JPG M2257 is the proper mounts for other motors.. they seem to be used interchangeably... but they seem to have perhaps a half inch perhaps more in difference in engine installed height... i don't have a pair to actually measure.. is the stud on the carb very long???? can it be shortened.. a shorter element or a drop base air filter be used... i know this is a customers car.. there are different locations for the openings in fan shrouds.. and... is the Zbar tube LEVEL... or is it at an angle????

I read the article here on project reclaim and it recommends using 3-M spray trim adhesive. I'm going to look and see if I can find it. If not, has anyone ever used Scotch Super 77 (it's made by 3-m) and lists cloth, plastic wood metal ECT. Looks like it would work. It the old days I think we just used regular old contact cement! It was great because you had a 2 hour window to join it. Any way, thanks for any comments. Mel

Looking for suggestions?? 69 Mach 1 with 351W and 4 speed toploader.I want to add power steering but Borgeson says it won't convert with z bar setup. Looks like steering box is in the way of the z bar?? Any suggestions, maybe redesign or change the z bar?? Is there another year or motor z bar that may work? Wondering if anyone has been down this road before? Maybe Waynep has an answer. Many thanks, I love this forum, it has been very helpful to a newbe like myself. JRW69

the system that was used in the Corvette is similer to that of what is used in my 1954 Packard, found it works really well and thats with a 4300 Lb car and is the same system that is used in the original mustangs.

I have a 1966 Mustang with a straight 6 so far I have replaced the 1bbl carb to a 2bbl carb. I want to keep the straight 6 but I would like to get a little extra horsepower. When I have the body work performed the engine is comming out. This is when I plan to rebuild the engine. First I would like to have a intake manifold made for a 2bbl carb so I don't have to use a adpt plate.Second should I bore the engine cyc 30/40 over or keep the engine the way it is. From what I can tell the engine is orginal to the car.So far I replace all the front and rear suspension changed the brakes to disc and 4 to 5 lug. Also the 3speed manual to a t-5 5 speed. My car still has the 7.25 rear axel. With out changing the rear end and installing a 302. Which way is the best way to rebuild the engine ang give it the extra horsepower with out putting a 302 in.Any help with web sites or part number would be outstanding.

this is what it looks like installed on the pump... looks like by changing the spacer stack height.. you can select which pulley the pump aligns with.. neat forward thinking.. if this is the correct bracket and spacers you received... i will look around for images installed if they are posted somewhere.. http://www.borgeson.com/xcart/image.php?type=P&id=1422

what ever the market will pay.... are you building a REAL resto... that you need a 48 year old carb for.. just a thought... why not look at the private label summit carbs that are actually designed from a autolite 4100.. but were updated by holley to conventional vacuum secondary devices used on conventional 4150/4160 models.. just pretend this is part of the mod. in the resto mod.. there are a lot of different carbs that will also work.. there are also some demon jr carbs that have the primary bores of a holley 390.. and the secondary bores of a 700.. but it uses a square bore mounting instead of a spread bore mounting... you might actually to fine tune some decent MPG out of these .
