a ride in my 65' mustang

[1cOrEwArE]

Okay i have a question, one of my friends who i think is over exaggerated completely, but he said that. Not having power steering is awful, is it really that awful?

[TexasGunslinger9]

@1cOrEwArE As long as your not sitting still it's not bad

[guitarmedusa]

THAT SOUNDS GREAT! cant wait to drive mine

[slater803]

bench seat Dont see that to often

[linksys082]

my friends dad has a 65 mustang cylinder straight, mach 1, and convertable v8 he said he got em for two grand a piece back in seatle in the 60's how much did you get ur mustang for??

[willdog3]

how much did the rebuild cost you? and is it worth the money if the engine is good in the first place? im thinking of putting a 2 barrel and dual exhaust in mine. if i do, im putting two cherry bombs on it too.

[NorCalKarting]

cost depends on the place and the work. its worth it if you bore it out. 2 barrel is good, nothing beyond that. these can't handle much over a 350 cfm carb. good luck

[csisterh]

wow sounds pretty good

You should make a video from outside the car so people can get a better idea of what it sounds like.

[NorCalKarting]

thanks, yeah unfortunately my camera broke so i can't really make any more videos till i decide to buy another one. thats why i haven't uploaded anything in like a year

[csisterh]

Well thats too bad. i am considering this setup for my 66 mustang. trying to choose between the magnaflows and flowmaster 40s

[acountis]

Thanks for the reply, I'm not doing the rebuild and boring and just hoping to see improvement from the headers and piping. So it sounds like I'll be able to tell a difference?

[NorCalKarting]

You will definitely see a difference.

[acountis]

Hey NorCalKarting,

Sounds very nice. I'm doing the Clifford headers with dual exhaust on my 66 200 next month. I'm wondering if you can tell me if the power increase is something you really notice, or is it mostly just for the sound? Thanks

[NorCalKarting]

honestly, i noticed a bigger power gain from the headers and 2 1/4 piping than i did when i rebuilt the bottom end of the motor and bored it out .030

[6t5]

AWESOME! it made my sticker peck up!

-'65 el camino here

[NorCalKarting]

lol thanks. and nice

[wagzthewelder]

That is a nice sounding six banger you got there what kind of exhaust do you have on it

[NorCalKarting]

Its a clifford performance header going to 2 1/4'' dual pipes, an X pipe and two magnaflow mufflers. O and chrome tips :) gotta have chrome

[NorCalKarting]

thanks, sounds even healthier in person ;)

[NorCalKarting]

grease is a quick fix, but it won't last, esspecially if its cold where you live. but grease up the tension points and it won't squeek.

yea the 3 would be pretty incompetent with the 289. but unless you're planning on beefin it up a bit, a T-5 might be a bit overkill. but who says thats a bad thing lol T-5's are nice, and a pretty workable swap with the 289 too.

[nascarfan200]

haha my clutch makes the same exact squeaking noise, but I have a 1968 289 3-speed convertible. Nice car man

[NorCalKarting]

lol doesn't it suck!

sounds like you got a nice one too. how's the 3 speed with the 289 though? can't be original is it?

[nascarfan200]

Yeah totally, do you know any quick fix for it?

Yup mostly original, the last owner put some GT accesories on there, but other than that it is pretty original. Click to my profile to see a picture of it in the background. I am thinking about a T-5 swap because the three speed is just so short...

[vatchyo]

sweet ride soundin excellent

[NorCalKarting]

thanks dude!
