He's really floggin that thing around.

So...much improved puttin around but I can definitely notice now that there is a secondary issue that needs adjusting. Sputters and backfires when you go to raise some hell!! That Holley manual cant get here fast enough.

Getting ready to go take her for a spin. I have got to find a better way to mount the regulator. Fugly for sure right now! PSI is at about 6.5, sounds like about were it should be.

Great guys, thanks! I have the gauge and regulator just need a couple of fittings to get this thing hooked up. I'll let you know the end results.

Small world huh! If you beat me to it let me know how the regulator works out.

Hey buening, the reg. is rated at 4.5 - 9 psi. Its the 12-803 Holley model. Does the reg. need to be mounted after the fuel pump or could I find a location near the washer fluid res. where the fuel line comes through the inner fender? Heres the pump info, its an Edelbrock unit. "Designed to match Performer Series carburetors, Edelbrock's High-Performance Street Fuel Pumps have 6-valves and a flow capacity of 110 gph. The unique valve design improves flow quantity and quality, and will support engines up to 600hp. High-volume, 3/8'' NPT inlet and outlet surpasses the capacity of conventional models. Produces 6 psi. For gasoline or mixed fuels only. No Regulator required. Clockable lower housing can be rotated in 60° increments for best inlet/outlet alignment." If after stopped at a light and you were to take off in a rational manner you could go through the gears and you probably wouldn't notice much of an issue. Its more when you are getting on it and the secondaries open up I would say. Also I tend to notice when climbing a hill at around 20-35 mph it starts bogging or loading up with fuel. This stuff is so frustrating trying to communicate and diagnose. Troubleshooting is not my strength! I did pick up a Holley manual on ebay, $5.00:clap:, hope its beneficial.

Sounds like we are both headed in the same direction. Same carb/issues and that is the regulator I bought. I need to get a gauge hooked up to see what kind of pressure Im at. Where are you going to mount the reg? Im a Rochester native, spent my first 19 years there and been out in Colorado for 21. What town in Northern NY?

Here's the stamp info: 4777-7 3401 More great news, I guess I didn't do my homework like I should have. I bought a fuel regulator (Holley) from Jegs and after looking through the instructions realized that you need an electric fuel pump and not a mechanical like I have. Oh well, it was only $30 and I may need it down the road.

The only numbers on the actual body I see are on the Driver side and it reads P 32. There are several other areas that have numbers stamped as well. Sorry I feel like a pain in the arsss. I appreciate everyones help!

The carb is a mechanical secondary setup . I think I need to look into a regulator and a gauge. Should be around 5-7 PSI from what I'm reading?

yeah, positive!

Print Dad-Thanks I checked both bowls and did have to rock the car a bit to see any fuel, so I he would assume that the float levels are where they need to be. I also adjusted the front mixture screws, however the two screws on the back side are gone!! This cant be right? Am I missing those 2 screws or is this normal?

Its seems I cant find a happy adjustment for my Holley 4150 double pumper. When your just coasting coming up to a stop or slowing down and then you go to get on the gas the car stumbles and I have to push the clutch in and rap up the motor to clean it out. Seems like shes getting too much fuel. Any thoughts on a good carb adjustment to make?

69GMachine, Great looking car! What r and p set up did you use? There are so many options out there. I like the fitment of yours. Direct bolt in? Thanks

Sweet thanks for the heads up. I got the conversion u joint and all is good.

I just got my new third member bolted up to the rear end housing and when I went to match up the yoke on the new unit to the drive shaft I realized I have some fitment issues. The u joints arent seated correctly in the yoke. They arent all the way into the pocket of the yoke. Anyone have any suggestions on how they would correct this problem, the best approach? :sweatdrop:

T5's right? Didn't Germany already have a car named Mustang so Ford had to pull the badging and the name from all exported Mustangs to Germany? Glad the misses is on board for the new power steering unit!

You bet, glad I could help! I'm hoping my new engine cover (spacer) comes in today so I can get the flywheel and clutch bolted up. I'd like to be driving this thing before August. When are you headed back to NY?

I went to the Ford stealership in Pueblo and they had one of these inserts but wanted $30. When I got home I did some research and found these at Summit Racing for $9.49 each. They work perfect! http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TFS-51400265/

I think this is the issue, nice catch! There is a local Mustang shop that I have looking for the correct bracket. I hope to hear from them early next week.

The engine is a 69 302, no ac and the inlet is on the pass side.

I guess I need to look at getting another bracket. The engine shop did put a new water pump on and it looks like there are several different styles of brackets used on the our cars. Thanks guys!

Perfect this looks like my set up. Is there a spacer that goes behind the lower bolt that attaches to the water pump?

Mine's a different style, can you see the new link I put up?

Does anyone have a good pic of the way the power steering pump mounts to the water pump? The bracket I'm using is the one seen below. I must be missing a spacer or something, its not lining up properly. Thanks in advance! http://mustangtek.com/bracket/D1ZA-3C511-AB.html
