The Granada, Monarch, Versailles is a little narrower bet still fits. All of them require some spring perch work. The housing width is 52.25" backing plate to backing plate, and the perch width is 43". The Mustang II is 52" & 43" respectively, but the II perches are narrower so the centering pins end up closer together. I've crammed a '59 Galaxy rear into a '74, but it really needs to come back out and get done right. The 11" drums are nice and it makes for an easy 5-lug conversion in the rear, plus all the disc brake kits will work with them. Darryl -----Original Message----- Okay this is what i want to do.

Thats why you see allot of positive stop shifters for the t-5's. When you over exert a shift it bends the shifter forks inside the Trans. over time it can get bent quite allot, and eventually cause it to not go all the way in gear. If you have the car in gear and it's only engaged half way do to a bent shifter fork and you side step the clutch,why it's only at half strength and gets pretty pissed off!! Ben there, done that.

I find that the mach1 was probably the most handsome and functional trim level that was offered. I have a '77 with a 302, 4-spd, sports perf. pkg, rally pkg. Basically, my car is mechanically identical to the king cobras, but without the huge spoilers and tape graphics. Regular cobras were mostly graphics options with no perfomance goodies that came with that package. While there's something to be said for looking the part of a road racer, the mach 1's looks will be underestimated by the un-initiated. I prefer being under-estimated and a street sleeper rather than gaudy and having to live up to expectations. The competition suspension was available as a separate option in '76. It was also part of the rallye pkg. You could still have the heavy-duty suspension and not have to belong to a certain trim package.

Of course, the Mach 1 has a body code "05" in the VIN so if you made it a Mach anyone who cared to could figure out it wasn't. The third and fourth digit in your VIN is your body code...if you have a fastback it is either 6F03 (2+2) or 6F05 (Mach 1). I believe that the Cobra was just a converted 2+2 so if your body code is "03" I suppose no one would be the wiser, although I wouldn't recommend trying to fool anybody (a true Cobra is worth more than a 2+2 and trying to pass a 2+2 off as a Cobra would be deceptive...Mustang II people just don't do that kind of thing). I doubt the competition suspension would affect your ride much. It would make the car corner flatter because you would be using a larger anti-roll bar up front and installing one in the rear where before there wasn't one. The true competition suspension package used an adjustable shock so you could make it ride a little softer if you wanted to. I don't know if those are still made (they were made by Gabriel). A slightly stiffer spring was used as well but the old magazine articles I have which talk about the competition suspension note that the ride isn't much "worse" than a stock suspension. If you used rubber bushings instead of polyurethane your ride will be fairly soft anyway. I would bet one of the vendors at mustangii.com could set you up with the springs and roll bars for a pittance. Don't forget to ask for the mounting hardware, and good luck!

You could probably get some of the parts from PST (Performance Suspension Technology) or the like but good used parts would be much less costly, not to mention the fact that they would be sure to fit right. Emblems were pretty much stickers and, in some cases, stainless steel trim. You can also get that stuff from the vendors at mustangii.com (gee, you'd think I had a financial stake in that website, but I really don't). I've seen a lot of Cobra II stickers and the like on E-bay as well. The Mach would be easier because you wouldn't have to worry about a hood scoop or spoilers for the front end or the rear deck or all of those vinyl graphics or the Cobra grill emblem. Mach 1's apparently did come with the front spoiler in 1977 and 1978, at least according to the photos in the dealer brochures. All of the Mach 1's I've seen are two tone (say, red from the side marker light signal up and on the top half of the bumper, black underneath with a white (silver?) "Mach 1" decal on the bottom half of the front fender just in front of the door and a blacked-out tail panel. I don't have a scanner so I can't send you any pictures. Maybe someone else can help with that part. According to my 1974 dealer brochure the Mach 1 included: 2.8 V-6 (or optional V-8 from 1975 on), dual remote control color-keyed mirrors, styled steel wheels with chrome trim rings, black lower bodyside paint treatment (see aove), and deluxe interior (soft vinyl, long arm rests, lots of fake wood or perhaps brushed aluminum). Two desirable options were the competition suspension (already discussed) and the Rallye Package (Traction-Lok differential, raised white letter CR70 13 tires, extra cooling package, competition suspension, sport exhaust with bright tips, digital clock and leather wrapped steering wheel). It would appear from most of the brochures that the Mach 1 used a simple stainless steel strip around the car but the photo in the 1976 brochure shows the vinyl molding. For my money, by the way, I think the Mach 1 was the most understated and thus the best looking of the high-performance Mustang IIs.

I find that the mach1 was probably the most handsome and functional trim level that was offered. I have a '77 with a 302, 4-spd, sports perf. pkg, rally pkg. Basically, my car is mechanically identical to the king cobras, but without the huge spoilers and tape graphics. Regular cobras were mostly graphics options with no perfomance goodies that came with that package. While there's something to be said for looking the part of a road racer, the mach 1's looks will be underestimated by the un-initiated. I prefer being under-estimated and a street sleeper rather than gaudy and having to live up to expectations. The competition suspension was available as a separate option in '76. It was also part of the rallye pkg. You could still have the heavy-duty suspension and not have to belong to a certain trim package.

Of course, the Mach 1 has a body code "05" in the VIN so if you made it a Mach anyone who cared to could figure out it wasn't. The third and fourth digit in your VIN is your body code...if you have a fastback it is either 6F03 (2+2) or 6F05 (Mach 1). I believe that the Cobra was just a converted 2+2 so if your body code is "03" I suppose no one would be the wiser, although I wouldn't recommend trying to fool anybody (a true Cobra is worth more than a 2+2 and trying to pass a 2+2 off as a Cobra would be deceptive...Mustang II people just don't do that kind of thing). I doubt the competition suspension would affect your ride much. It would make the car corner flatter because you would be using a larger anti-roll bar up front and installing one in the rear where before there wasn't one. The true competition suspension package used an adjustable shock so you could make it ride a little softer if you wanted to. I don't know if those are still made (they were made by Gabriel). A slightly stiffer spring was used as well but the old magazine articles I have which talk about the competition suspension note that the ride isn't much "worse" than a stock suspension. If you used rubber bushings instead of polyurethane your ride will be fairly soft anyway. I would bet one of the vendors at mustangii.com could set you up with the springs and roll bars for a pittance. Don't forget to ask for the mounting hardware, and good luck!

You were a problem two years when we ran you from the .org list. Yes, we ran Dave from the list. Why did we run him from the list?? Alleged poor business practices. We got a report he screwed a member in a deal. He also had a tendency to forward private mail. We thought the boy just wanted to cause trouble so, we got rid of him. Gee, I wonder why he doesn't like us. So, now you all know Dave and .org go way back. Way Back. And he has his personal reasons to not like us. Just keep this in mind the next time he starts talking nasty. He has his own agenda. And he will use you to his own purpose. He will attempt to manipulate you. Don't think so? Do you REALLY think he crushed 82 cars today? ROTFLMAO. What would his purpose of even saying such a thing? Obviously to elicit a negative feeling toward certain people and organizations. Feel manipulated yet? Then try this, there was no mud slinging from us. Many times I have seen that phrase appear in this list. Every time I saw that phrase I went into every list message looking for mud, didn't see any. One more: I ranked on you, Dave, on the .org list for your lousy grammar ( your writing skills are a big inside joke amongst us in private. ;). However, when you wrote about it here, on this list, you focused on spelling. Did I even mention spelling? The point of the post was punctuation and how much easier it makes reading but you chose to ignore that, didn't you? This brings me to an interesting point: the way points have been presented. Oftenly someone has tried to address an issue with , well, several people "here" only to receive replies that had little or nothing to do with what was being discussed. This isn't only my observation. Others have commented on it as well. How can things be worked out when one of the parties refuses to deal with the issues? When one of the parties refuses to be rational and mature? ( Does your saying you crushed 82 cars out of spite sound rational OR mature?? ) When one of the parties starts name calling, including but not limited to racial slurs?? Dave, You have created your own problem. I think you are not rational or mature enough to accept this. As previously noted, I think it's not in your nature to even contemplate that you have created your own problems. An old saying: easier to bitch about it than to fix it. Now, Dave, If you have a problem with anything i have said, be a Man and bring it to me or address it in a public forum. ( Dave, I really think you similar to a Vampire, you can't survive in the light of day. ) Please leave Serge, Diane, and the other principals at .org out of it. I know you like taking your irrational gripes about people in .org to people that are uninvolved with the particular situation. This time, be a Man and bring it to me. Mark. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

I'm the Diane in question, and quite frankly I don't remember sending a nasty email to Sergio or *anyone* regarding turning down Tim's help for the Registry. To set the record straight, I started to work on our Registry 2 years ago. It went online officially about one year ago. Tim knew it, Dave knew, it, as a matter of fact, anyone on the .org list at the time knew it since it was pretty exciting news. Tim even registered his own car on it back in July. During in the summer I was emailing the webmaster at MCA (http://www.mustang.org) regarding listing the Registry on their site. They have a list of conditions that have to be met. I was working on them when I rec'd an email from Tim asking if I needed help getting the Registry listed with MCA as he "knew people" in the club. I declined only because I was already working on the process. That is all the help Tim offered me. No more, no less. And to set the record straight with you, Dave, no one ever mentioned your name regarding the guestbook entry. You claim to own those sites; why would you be so stupid as to start some mudslinging? It's really not anyone's fault but your own if you see yourself in the messages.

Unibody cars have a front subframe for the engine and front suspension, and a rear subframe for the rear suspension. The two subframes are connected together by the body. This setup means that most of the strength in the car is provided by the body. High torque engines have a habit of twisting the body, and causing the body to bend. Usually the doors will start to fit wrong and body panel alignment will suffer. The subframe connectors are usually a boxed steel beam that welds to the front subframe and to the forward rear spring perch. This prevent the body from bending and helps prevent twisting. To completely eliminate twisting you need a roll cage with an angled tube behind the front seats. In the case of my '74, the welds that connect the body to the front subframe, have started to seperate. The only prevention I can think of for that is to use a brace from the firewall to the fenders and the subframe boxes, similar to those used in the t-top cars.

They are behind the front suspension and in front of the rear suspension just a little ways under the car. They help support the suspension and transfer some of the energy produced by the suspension as it does its job to the floor pan to reduce ride harshness. A sub-frame connecter connects the front and rear sub-frames together. It is kind of like putting a frame on a unibody car (a unibody car, like the Mustang, does not have a frame supporting the body...the body is made in such a way that it supports itself without a frame, or at least not much of one). This is beneficial because a unibody car body will twist under heavy acceleration and this can actually damage the car quite a bit. Sub-frame connectors stiffen the frame and prevent it from being damaged by undue stress produced by crazy people like me who try to put too much power to the ground too quickly. This is only the beginning of an explanation. Hopefully someone else will be able to flesh it out a bit more. -- Matt Olson ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Feb 2000 15:46:17 -0500 From: Matthew Olson Subject: Re: Carb Replacement DoUFeelThis2@aol.com wrote: > > ur right about this being for mustang II's and us not caring WHO owns and > etc. I have problems with my II and need technical comments about solving > them. so... let's stick to our subject.

I have had experiance with edelbrock carbs and intakes they are great! My only suggestion would be to try to closely as possible to match your intake to your cam. Meaning if your cam is good from 1500 to 6500 rpm get an intake that has the same rpm band. Dont go hog wild and get a open plenum high rise intake and put it on a stock motor. If your motor is stock i would recomend that you go with the edelbrock performer intake and a 600cfm carb. if it has a mild cam the edelbrock performer rpm manifold and 600 cfm should do fine or you could step up to the 750 cfm carb. Dont forget once you replace the intake and carb make some wide open throttle passes (perferably at a drag strip) then read the spark plugs. if plugs look white you would need to richen the mixture if black you need to lean the mixture. The books in the new edelbrock carbs are creat they tell you how to tune the carb. Edelbrocks are great carbs for street while Holleys are good for performance and strip.

You can get a rebuilt stock one from Pony Carbs or you could look into an aftermarket carb. I don't know if it would fit a stock manifold, but Holley makes a nice 2 barrel. It is the Holley 0-4412, which is a 500 cfm unit. It is not emissions legal but it does have Ford A/T kickdown. It is a manual choke unit; you would have to buy part #45-224 and #45-465 to make it all work.

Wilkinson" Subject: Re: Fw: United We Stand II Fans, Firstly I want to say that this new format where all of the messages are seperate emails put me off, at first. But upon using this I find it much easier to view those messages I am interested in and to respond to them individually. I still get the 'other' forum and to be quite honest I don't take the time to read through it all since this new format - topica - came about. About the Edelbrock vs. Holley thing. If simplicity were any kind of guide, I would definately stick with Edelbrock. There are a number of features like not having any gaskets below the fuel line which eliminates leaks and gives the ability to change the jets and/or rods without taking the carb. off the car or without even draining the fuel. The Edelbrock is a simple carb. which results in reliability and ease of tuning. The Edelbrock is much cheaper than a Holley double-pumper - about half. A double-pumper is the type of four-barrel that has it's secondaries activated by the throttle and not by vacuum. Edelbrock's secondaries are activated mechanically as well and this is the racers choice - always get mechanical secondaries. The Edelbrock is made for thier intake manifold and both can be gotten at your local mega auto-store. The Edelbrock carb. cost me $240 and thier intake manifold costs $150. Aside from new gaskets, this will be the sum total of the cost to convert that weeny 2-barrel to a real carb. that will greatly increase your power. I know from the casting on my carb. that it was at one time a Weber, I assume that they were bought out or something. I have also been told that the Edelbrock Performer is a very close copy of a Carter - the original muscle car carb. Once you press your foot into those secondaries you will wonder why you didn't toss that 2-barrel long ago! I even get better gas mileage with my Edelbrock - about 17mpg on the highway - but my 2-barrel had more problems than just being small. Eric ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2000 19:05:48 -0600 (CST) From: "Eric N. Wilkinson" Subject: Re: Replace your 2-barrel!! II Fans, Almost forgot another key advantage of the Edelbrock over the Holley - The Edelbrock has NO power valve. This is a source of problems for the Holley as it will go out eventually. Also, each Edelbrock is flow tested with liquid and air - each one. Eric ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2000 20:12:39 EST From: COBRAII976@aol.com Subject: Re: Replace your 2-barrel!! Edelbrock carbs are Carter carbs there a pretty simple carb the problem I find with them is not alot of people can properly tune on so a swap meet Carter Edelbrock is out in that aspect. As for the Holley there is a guy in every town and city the can tune and build one and swap meet holleys are a great buy you can get 600's fairly cheap I pay about 25-50 depending on condition and the rebuild kits run about 20 bucks. so I give the holley the advantage there. in ease of use and bolt on out of the box I'll toss it to the Carter Edlebrock. in the racing and fine tuning department I'll give it to the Holley. It all in what you feel comfortable with and who you know that can tinker with whatever carb you buy. I'll stick with the holley's and the mecanical sencondarys for a holley is a real cheap and easy conversion.

I've got most of my parts and I've got the camera ready. Phase one will be installing polygraphite bushings in the front end. Phase two will be the high lift springs front and back. Phase three will be the five lug conversion. Phase four will be the addition of the Weld Dragstars. And Phase five will be the conversion from the RAD 4 speed to a C4 automatic. Hopefully during all of this I will get a webpage up so everybody can see the progress. Leadfoot Luke ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2000 16:09:21 -0500 From: "Timothy M.

I won't mention names TIM. Well I know it's winter in most of the country but someone has to be wrenching on something. I'm about to iron the wrinkles out of my Cross Ram problem and get the proper linkage made to fire all 8 barrels at the chevy scum. Anyone else elbows deep in grease this winter?

The only car that has 13's on it still, is the resto '77 t-top. Even my pinto (souped up, though) has 14's, and hopefully my 74 dragger will come out with 15's in a month or so. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2000 19:05:34 -0800 From: "Darryl Lang" Subject: RE: Wheel size '74 Coupe: 16" X 7.5" 5-lug from a '94 Mustang '76 Coupe: 14" X 5.5" 4-lug aftermarket '77 Mach 1: 16" X 7" 4-lug from a '93 Mustang '78 T-Top: 17" X 8" 5-lug from a '94+ Roush Mustang I've had 15" X 7" on each car at least once in the time I've owned each one. 15's are probably the best size if you want to run a low profile tire. 14's would be best if you want a fat, tall tire for straight line performance without raising the car for clearance. Of course, nothing beats the performance of a 17X8 with 245/45 rubber.

All of the tire is under the car (no lift springs here). And I have been thinking of lowering the car about 2"s. Oh! ya! mines a 76 cobra II w/t-tops. I have been working on my cawl induction hood ,It's lookin' pretty good so far , plan to get these pics on the site soon Jason -----Original Message----- From: Brian Nadeau To: mustangii@topica.com Date: Monday, February 28, 2000 9:16 PM Subject: Wheel size >I was just curious as to what size wheels most of you >use. i still have the original 13 inchers on my car >and i was wondering what size to replace the back ones >with. thanks for your help > brian >__________________________________________________ >Do You Yahoo!? >Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

If you want to stick with the factory wheels you're pretty much stuck with 195/70 or 205/60. I've seen 205/60s on IIs, in some cases it looked good, in others the wheel looked too small for the car. I think it depends on how much clearance there is between the tire and wheel well opening. If the car is lowered slightly it may look OK. I'm going to stick with the original 13" rims on my King Cobra. I'll probably go with the original 195/70 tire size. These don't look too bad with raised white letters. The raised white letters take away from the "tallness" of the tire. I've only found a few tires available in this size - Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTS, Cooper Cobra Radial GT and Daytona Radial SR. Otherwise, you could find some 14" wheels with 60 series tires, or 15" wheels with 50 series tires. My personal feeling is that anything over 15" looks too big on a Mustang II.

I should mention that I had to use 3/8 inch spacers on front and rear to clear the strong positive offset of the late model wheels. It comes in handy to work in a tire shop.
