I forgot. It has a 302 Ford v8.
With all the fiberfab td kits around, there must be a solution.
I registered for the good guys car show next week and don’t want to cancel or burn the car up!

        As an aside.  I have noticed that the problem is reduced when I am accelerating or braking. The way the suspension is built, it seems like the di…[Read more]

If you have an 18 lb. radiator cap the boiling point of water/antifreeze is around 150 degrees! Sort of like a pressure cooker. So don’t worry about it unless you start getting around 145 degrees, don’t worry about it. If you don’t believe me, do the calculations yourself.

Anyone done this?

        I’ve been thinking about going to a junk yard and looking for a pair of bucket seats that would fit. More comfortable but don’t know how it would attach.

        Also finding a pair of 3 point seat belts. I think the top might fit on the convertible top bracket just behind the seat.

        Regarding the storage problem, there is a lot of empty space behind…[Read more]

Your TD message said to see the manual on the left. Couldn’t find it.
