They are right about the mod motors costing more to rebuild. I saw on ebay the other day that the cam chains and gears cost about $450-$500. I haven't even checked into what the heads are going to cost to be rebuilt. I plan on hopefully only having to put rings, bearings, chains, gaskets and heads ...

Great...1969 Mustang perhaps. Can anyone confirm? It seems that the most efficient way to do this would be to get one that doesn't automatically require the extra work/trial and error given that one that is a bolt in evidently exists and I'm sure would be approx the same price as would units requiri...

Mine originally came w/a road draft tube. Not a good setup for longevity/effectiveness of the engine oil. I have a bone-stock bias, but this is one area where the option/regional requirement seems to make sense to retrofit.

Indeed, the PCV was available in '64 (perhaps required in CA). I got hold of a NOS system for the 292 and installed it on mine with the same description you have of yours. Mine is all hard tube piping, no rubber.

What specific version of the 8 lug wheels do you have? If you have the inward facing hubcap holders and the rims are of the non-split retainer ring-equipped version, I am interested in purchasing them. Please advise. pjacques@wcu.edu

master cylinder bolt in swap(?)

Folks, I know we've written about putting in a dual master at length. Two questions: 1) I drive a lot of old cars that have had brake line rust and when I step on the pedal when, unbeknownst to me that there is a rusted line, it goes right to the floor - this is on dual master cylinder equipped cars...

y-block fuel filter wrench availability

Hi, all....I have a typical y-block engine-driven fuel pump with the fuel filter tucked in an aluminum canister which is threaded to the fuel pump. There are three indentations, equally spaced on the bottom of the canister on the outer periphery of the cannister which seems to suggest that there is ...

Ooops...hang on a sec...according to m there was no Corinthian White in '64.

A most unexpected reply above. I honestly don't expect "please" to be responded to with "WTF". Anyway, what I mean is according to images in my sales literature, the wheels are a shade of white. That's a source. Another source might be direct observation of an unmolested barn fin...

'64 what was the OEM color for wheels?

The sales literature I have suggests that the color was a flavor of white. What I'm looking for is the exact color code. I would guess the color was actually Wimbledon White, but I'm not at all sure of that. If you have input, could you please also provide your source? Thanks. - Paul

Thanks for the tip/lead, Chop. I bought one. :-)

I think I want the H1 unit. I don't care what the color looks like, I want max visibility. It's not that I have any vision issues, but neither do I have vanity issues. I'm a utilitarian kind of guy.

Whatchu think?
