Alan/Maurice,
So very sorry to hear about your Mom. Losing a loving parent or child is a very special loss....but they are never far away in your heart when they were close in life.
Press on. ...
Alan- until I got the alignment issues with the clutch fork corrected, it was impossible to get a good adjustment at the slave cylinder rod. You were either in a pre-load or slipping situation...

I have a 351C setup that I have been driving since 2003 and suffered many of the same problems you mention. After 4 clutch assemblies in about 20,000 miles I got really fed up and did a piece by...
I've had this problem with every set of Radial TA's I've ever owned. Currently run Yokohama S/Ts and have been told by a very reliable source that Cooper Cobras are exactly the same tire. The BFG...
That picture should be in Funk and Wagnalls right next to "booger weld".
How/where do you buy tickets for this??
Oh yea! If you're an AAA member try doing business with them first.
Mike/Rod- I went thru SB100 when I built my car in 2003 and DMV titled it as a 1964 Ford (which it clearly is not). They would not register it as "replica" and they would not recognize the Unique...
It's been a while since I assembled my car but my impression is that if your car has already been assembled, registered, and driven in another state for over 6 months you shouldn't have to go thru...
My problem is with the collector gaskets....never had an issue with the head to header gaskets. I'm using Edelbrock Aluminum Cleveland heads.
Hi young Phil! Hope you still have your prop beanie. Alan....now that I've got about seven years and 20K miles on the car it's probably time for me to finish some of the wrap up work on the car. ...
OK...confession and lesson learned. Got under the car today and realized that the last time I had the pipes off I used some of the dead soft aluminum gaskets at the collector.(Never had any problems...
Any thoughts (pro or con) regarding using copper header flange gaskets?? Blew my old composite gasket out today at Willow Springs.
I'm not sure I get the point when they changed the axles, tires and wheels on the SS then claim that it's faster. Seems like a skewed contest.
Mine says "domain not found".....will not run. Ran the Quicktime installer.
The main issue with the zinc in the engine oil occurs with flat tappet cams...the more radical the cam profile, the more zinc becomes a factor (very high loadings at the cam face/lifter base contact...
Most of your problem is probably the BFG tires. I had two sets and it was impossible to keep them balanced. Switched to the Yokohamas about four years ago and they have been flawless but alas, they...
I'm getting old and having memory flashbacks. Like everytime I see a picture of Pam Anderson I think of a '55 Buick. Now evertime I see an article about the Ironic I think of P. T. Barnum.
Mark- are you running a roller or flat tappet cam in your engine?
Let me share a thought with you....you're not as old as you feel but rather you're as old as you think. You will have days when if it doesn't hurt it doesn't work to be sure but let me assure you...
Phil- we're doing great. Bram and his wife wife made us grandparents last Summer which has been a wonderful experience. Still need to get up and join you for one of your breakfast runs.
Jim-...
Phil- he's replacing it because the attachment bolts got some corrosion on them which put undue strain on block, slightly deformed the castings around the exhaust header manifolds and caused them to...
Nice Phil...looks like you two are still enjoying the car. I'm off to Houston tomorrow to hook up with an old High School buddy for a big Ford show there. Dragging the trailer, but will do lots of...
