what brand or were did you get those?

 

Those are Maier Racing's 69-70 Shelby Side Scoops. They were okay quality, I had my shop clean them up to look sharper. I just need to mod and create a screen so no debris will go in.

rwcstang... back from your test drive yet??? ... video?

 

 

not yet, I found a leak in the power steering hose, waiting on a replacement. I will post a video, when I can take it for a drive.

 

also, anyone know what cars carried a ford 9 (small bearing) that will fit directly to my mustang?

 

 

also, going to purchase some subframe connectors any recommendations? I was thinking of going with maier since their shop is 20 minutes away from me.

10/21: So my car was smoking through the exhaust recently and couldn't understand why. At first it was intermittent, then it was doing this all the time. it was blue smoke and I could smell oil was being burned, this got me really concerned and worried.

 

I took it home and did compression test and everything checked out, I thought it was the PVC valve but it was still good, I thought maybe it was the intake gaskets but they were good too. I just couldn't understand why my car was smoking, so I figured it would be the heads.

 

So I scheduled an appointment and I took my baby to my friends shop to have them look it over which is really rare for me to do and i cannot trust a shop but luckily this shop I have worked with them before and they did a great job and finally what do you know, the shop found the Seals were not seating properly which oil was escaping to the valve into the combustion chamber.

Luckily the motor is fine, so they will replace all seals just to make sure this doesn't happen again. pheww.... I hate the debugging stage, gives me a heart attack everytime.. lol
