  1. I am looking to install a more modern starter on my car. I want to replace the heavy original unit for a lighter one. The one off a 93 Mustang Cobra would fit the bill. However, I'm not sure how to connect the wires with the solenoid on the fender. I really don't want to loose the solenoid. Can I bypass the lighter starters solenoid and connect the power wire directly to the starter ? Thanks!
  2. Are you sure the pumps interchange between the two motors?
  3. Get a big block air cleaner. You could get an fiberglass one from fordramair.com. It should be short enough. Please don't trim and destroy your original piece. Just my opinion. Your car, do what you want. :)
  4. 15 inch magnums for my car as well and nothing else
  5. Sam, no validation from an outside source is important or needed. If your happy with what you did to your car then "that" is all that matter. Who cares what others think!
  6. You will not get extra volts, you will need more amps! A 3G does not produce anymore volts than any other alternator! OK, to check the alt with a voltmeter: Measure voltage at the battery posts with everything off including engine. Battery should measure 12.6 - 13 v dc. Crank motor, then measure alt output at battery posts. Should read no more than 14.6 vdc. Then with engine running turn everything on Ie. radio and all it's components, fan blower motor, headlights on with high beams, electric cooling fans, and everything else on. Rev motor to about 2500 rpm. This will load down the alt, but the voltage should not drop below 14 v dc. Good luck
  7. I have the ho Aurora set this slot car came with.it's cool
  8. trophies are boring! Car shows are boring! Cruise nights are fun and no pressure. Have fun, no Jonesing for trophies!
  9. yes the Deluxe interior on 69's did have stainless trim on the fuel pedal. No it is not available.. I replaced my cars Fuel pedal with a 68 trimmed pedal. Works and installed fine ... no problem
  10. So Just Curious, what did you decided to do?
  11. I am going to install the same Shelby pod on my car I want voltage and vacuum gauge. the gauges that come with the pod are junk...ammeter and electric oil pressure. neither works very well. the sunpro gauges fit the pod really well. :)
  12. I not sure why you are considering this. Most one wire systems are already strong enough to handle what you have and more. What's the output of the one wire alt? If you do this it seems your taking a step backwards. Of course it's your car, you do what want. My advise is to to replace the alt, if it's not strong enough, with a better one and be done with it. On a one wire system you have just one wire. The voltage regulator, trigger voltage and everything are all on the the alternator. no extra wiring. Now the 3G has 5-6 wire connections. In my car I have a 100 amp alternator that connects to the factory harness. Cool, but it will not last forever and I was given a free 3G for another car. My thing was, that if my 100 amp alternator ever dies I could install the 3G and be done with it, with out spending a ton of money. Yes, 3G is a little cheaper but not easier. Stay with what you have, just upgrade to better alternator. It's easy! Good luck!
  13. I did the same, I purchased a repro hood. and Please ponder this ... if the shaker was not made of fiberglass, it would cost a heck of a lot more!
  14. Yes they were a few years ago, but I cannot remember where I got it from or how much. I'm sorry. Have searched all the mustang vendors?
  15. in Batteries the bigger you go the better.
  16. That is a good question. I do not know, sorry.
