[adsm08]

Haaaa haaaa, I have had my 67 big block fastback for over 20 years and I still have not finished it!!! It is sanded down and waiting paint and waiting for me to put in my New in the crate 427 side oiler. I bough the side oiler over 28 years ago and it is still in the crate. One day I will finish it. one day I will finish it. One day I will finish it....I keep saying this over and over again...lol

One thing about 'Stangs. I have owned a few of them and they are like my old filled in swimming pool..a big money pit!!!

Not if you keep sitting on TRS you won't.

I actually do have a Ford reman for it. It is included in the parts.

Just wait til next week when I pick up the parts.

Will it fit in a flat rate box from the post office? if not i think shipping would kill a good chunk of the engine budget

Adsm, yeah shipping sucks what with the whole different worlds thing.

My sister-in-law has a '65 with a 200-6. I put a Weber carb and a Mopar ignition box on it to solve a number of issues. Below are quotes from my Facebook wall. I have sources and part numbers if you decide to go this route.

I decided the ancient vacuum-only Load-a-matic ignition advance, which relies on a spark control valve, was no longer viable. All of the carbs that have this spark control valve are 45 years old, and have seen a trip or 20 through the caustic tank. You can't just swap for a newer-style carb unless you also throw away the Load-a-matic dizzy and get one with a centrifugal advance mechanism. Not only that, but out of 2 or 3 old 1100 Autolites, zero of them had accelerator pumps that would actually squirt. The rubber pistons were loose in the worn out bores and, probably, the check balls weren't sealing either. There is no new replacement. Turns out, a 34ich Weber is cheap, bolts right on and requires only a little work--stealing the throttle lever off of an Autolite with a bench grinder on the peening. It fits right onto the Weber. Air cleaner selection is pretty poor, but a 90hp engine doesn't need much air. The distributor is NOS for a 1982 Ford 3.3--Granada or Fairmont, like that. The ignition control box I used is a regular-old Mopar unit--much cheaper than a Ford box. They are cheap and work with anything--probably even a lawn mower. All these boxes do is control dwell--coil saturation. They give a hotter spark by keep the primary windings charged longer than points can.

The Weber 34 ICH is jetted up to the maximum 220 main jets (comes with a 165), has the idle jet at 60, the 70 was too much as the mixture screw was all the way in (it comes with a 50 out of the box). The accelerator pump volume is adjusted by splitting the pump shot between the shooter and an exhaust jet leading back into the fuel bowl. A smaller exhaust jet means more fuel goes through the shooter and less back to the bowl. I have a 35 in there, which is the largest shot except a plug which forces all of the fuel through the shooter--came with a 40). Seems like its all working perfectly now. The Weber ICH is an extremely adaptable carb--I've only messed with half of the possible adjustments--but I don't think it will run a much larger engine than this 3.3 liter, low-revving Ford. I think I could get it to work on a riding mower. Car's running great and I didn't mess with the dizzy yet. It's only got about 26-degrees total advance in it but it seems like enough on this.

The Weber doesn't like sitting on the exhaust manifold and percolation was an issue which I solved with an insulated fuel line and an aluminum heat shield. We have all of the stock parts in a box, and it's great to having it running crisply and reliably.

I finally got my parts. Still more to pick up.

All in all, this Mustang cost me $1500 ($500 truck included) to get with all the parts.

They can fit their whole line of cars in this book. Now look at the wiring books.

To put it into perspective, it took a 18ft landscaping trailer (flat packed. Did not stack) and half of my friends truck bed to haul the parts.
Most of the parts are in my basement including 1 gt gauge cluster, one white face cluster and a normal cluster, 3 radios (Stock, Sony, and pioneer custom), many many misc spare parts, several lower rear valances, 2 grills, many corner pieces and headlight bezels, Uhhh... Seats, seat tracks, window trim, engine gasket set, rear end, control arms, manual steering setup, and I still need to pick up windows.
