  1. Just broke my last axle on my indepndent rear on friday. No more procrastinating the 8.8 is going in. Im going to install it useing maximum motorsports torque arm, panhard bar and coilovers. This will mean that i will not need to use upper controll arms and not have to cut up the car to much. The rear from a 5.0 mustang will need to be narrowed 2 and 1/4 inches on each side. The nice thing is that all i will have to fab is a place to bolt the lower control arms to where the seatbelt buckets are. A mount for the panhard bar and coilovers. everything that goes on the rear itself is bolt on and will make the install fairly ease. Good luck on your build.
  2. You should be able to use any light you want and activated with a window switch from jegs or summit. dosn't have to look like a shift light if you dont want.
  3. Hi vega. Just read your post, hope this helps you. I run a 77 280z 2900lb with driver no bumpers everything els is there. It does have a roll bar. 408sbc 10.9 comp 93 pump gas motor that makes 500hp @5600rpm and 518tq @4300rpm at the crank. turbo 400 trans 10" converter 3500stall manual vale body. I have not used trans brake 2 step or the 275hp nos kit yet. Keep breaking cv axels useing 255/60/15 drag radials. So far its managed a best of 10.85 at 124mph traction not a problem, broken axels always a broblem. The diff is welded to. What ever combo you decide to use 500hp at the crank should put you in the ball park.
  4. I got a set of the (c 33)'s this spring and the mods made by oakland240 are the same as what i did. I however use streght plug heads and needed to dimple there to. i didn't like the collectors so i cut them out and used a set of merge collectors from edelbrock that look great. The hardest part of the install was bending the pasenger side header to clear the frame rail. Overall i am very happy with them. Not a bolt on but close enough for anyone to install.
  5. Wow,thats looking great. can't wait to see more.
  6. Well over the years I have learned that "bolt on" is never so. I would have a bottle of tums handy.
  7. I have the jtr mounts and right now im using edelbrock j bend 1 5/8 inch headers with 3" collectors. I use a turbo 400 trans. NC chris, I saw them used with jtr mounts.
  8. Just orderd a set of Sanderson headers. Thanks everyone.
  9. Thanks jay260z. I saw an old post you chimed in on and did just that. Today i orderd the c33 from Sanderson. Not crazy about the way the colectos look but i can change that if need be.
  10. Looking for S&S or msa long tube headers for sbc. 1 3/4 inch with 3 inch collectors. This is for 1977 280 z with jtr setback position. Thanks.
  11. After saving all winter to buy a set of 1 3/4 in. long tube headers from msa. I was told that s&s went under and the headers are no longer stocked. Can somone please let me know where i can get a set.
  12. Odmanout84 when iconverted my lights i ran into the same problem. I went to the local truck parts store and got some chasis wireing clips. They slip on truck chasis to hold wire harness on.
  13. All kidding aside. I can't wait to get my hands on this fi sistem, but i wonder why i don't see them at the track or even that much on line like on youtube. Is there somthing wrong with it that i may have mist?
  14. No, but i want to . Can i borrow you'r wife, mine isn't so understanding.
