I searched everywhere with no results at all.

Have any of you found a source publishing tested results of '60s Ford performance intake manifolds CFM flow numbers? I can't find anything.

Head flow numbers are by comparison easy to find.

Have any of you done Extrude Hone on any of the intakes?


I seem to remember Cobra Automotive offering Extrude Hone on the Cobra high rise intakes but haven't talked to them recently about it.

I do remember the thread of the '69 Shelby cardboard trunk liners and the thought that they were originally painted and painted light blue.

I don't remember if the '68s were thought to have been painted also?

I did do a search on this subject and nothing came up.

Can someone either point me to the thread on the '68 discussion, if there is one or just tell me what the finish should be, please?


Mine are not painted and I suppose could be described as a flatten satin but they are closer to dark charcoal; grey then to black.

Thank you.

This is a very nice used Ford "Econoline" 90° Oil Filter Adapter C5TE-6881-A.

These were also used on some Tiger 1A's.

This one is missing the oil filter adapter nipple. No mounting fluid bolt or gaskets included. Just what you see in the picture.

PM me here if interested.

$100 + shipping.

This is an original Ford long fluid mounting bolt for the Ford small block oil cooler/filter adapter. Besides the Ford small block like the Boss 302 it will also work on the 351w, 351c, the Boss 429 and the 429 Fords. Anything that can use the Ford oil cooler adapter.

It has the TF logo on the head, which the current reproductions do not have.

This one is in very decent condition. $125 and $11 flat rate shipping in the US.

PM me here if interested. I haven't figured out how to post pictures on this new format yet but I can email them to you.

I need to know if the extension fitting/sleeve for the oil fiter adapter is a generic Ford part and the number.

I misplaced mine and can't find a basic part number on it to research it? If there is anyone here who knows, I would appreciate it.

I'm thinking that it isn't a unique part, that it is from another Ford industrial application but I don't know that for sure?

Anyone know?

Parts For Sale / 250hp NOS Nitrous Oxide Cheater System

This is a new NOS 250hp Nitrous Oxide Cheater System.

It contains a FULL 10 pound bottle, the kit, two 4 barrel carb adapter plates for dual four barrel Holley carbs, a NOS pressure gauge. Stainless steel mounting bolts.

You can easily use only one carb mounting plate.

I had it mounted but never used it.


It is currently for sale at Summit Racing for $909.95, plus tax, with an empty bottle that you need to fill locally. About a $1250 value with a full tank.

This can not be shipped because of the full bottle and needs to be picked up here.

PM me here if interested.


$700.

I tend to think no with some of the variations I have seen on some '67s BUT I have seen cars that CLAIM to be completely original with just one color of primer?

It appears sometimes to be glossy in spots and flat in other spots and the redness seems to vary front to back?

#11
I don't remember this being covered? Is the battery tray just relocated from the front to the trunk or is there a something else pulled from another application?

Is there a part number on it?
#12
Were they moved together on one side? The A/C seems to interfere with the driver's side mounting location?

This is a really nice 1967 Original Assembly Line 390 STD  4 speed manual rear cross member.

It is stamped 390 STD, 7 6,  5 20 (May 20, 1967) A,  X,  and R.

It has been glass beaded and repainted.


These 4 speed manual rear cross members are different then the small blocks and any of the automatic transmission cross members.
This one is definitely a 1967 version.

Each year is shaped differently in order to clear the factory exhaust H pipes which vary according to model years.

This one would be an excellent choice if you are restoring a late build '67 GT500 with a 4 speed manual transmission.



The price on this is $595.  $20 to ship USPS Flat Rate, Large Box within the Continental US.  Additional to go elsewhere at whatever the additional cost is.


Payment by Paypal, "Friends and Neighbors" please.


PM me here if interested.

Are the kits shown in the Off Highway Boss 302  Chassis booklet still available anywhere?

Are the black screws that hold the rear fiberglass taillight panel in place "black stainless"? Are they truss head or something else?

1967 Shelby GT350/500 / 428 Dipstick tube
October 07, 2023, 08:17:15 AM
Is there a difference in dipstick tubes for the FE engines?

The Ford Service replacement tube that I have mounted on my 67 GT500 engine does not fit correctly.

When the mounting flange to the exhaust manifolds is connected, the tube is too short and pulls out of the block mounting point.

I am presuming that the answer to my question is yes, there are different tubes, but what is the service part number for the correct one?

1967 Shelby GT350/500 / Installing headers on 67 GT500
October 05, 2023, 05:47:57 PM
I think that I read that some have installed Hooker headers on an engine first before installing the engine. Then installing the engine, transmission and headers together as a unit?

Has anyone here tried that?

1967 Shelby GT350/500 / 67 Shelby build sheets
September 07, 2023, 07:34:11 PM
I don't remember this being asked before but do the 67 Shelbys have build sheets in them? I don't think that I have ever seen one?
