The pedal end is a yoke, the throttle cable has a ball swedged on the end. You have to take the cable off 1 direction only because of that swedged socket, but I bet there is a way to either replace the yoke with something that fits your pedal. Taking the yoke off is easy, I judt don't know what...

I can't post pics I don't think. I used this cable, its on a weber carb on a crossflow six 250 from Australia, I needed it longer: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CONKFQ/?tag=classicbroncos-20 And I needed these ends to work with the weber. I think lokar has various different "adapaters"...

I drive a lot, like 4k miles a month sometimes. In the 3.5eco in an F150 I ran 87 all the time, and a couple times I ran a tank of 91 or 93, and it would show maybe .2-.4mpg better, but the cost for the fuel did not make economic sense. Like I could get 18 more miles on a tank at a cost of $18...

Steve, @AWS has always loved these things. Maybe he will want to talk to you about it

I just wanted to say thanks! I've used your codes a few times, today included. Sometimes it saves me mostly shipping, but its silly to not use the code, right? I appreciate you posting these!

The 170 has 3 freeze plugs on the passenger side of the block under the exhaust manifold, the 200 & 250 have 5 and the 250 would have a 4 bolt water pump while the 170 and 200 have a 3 bolt. It might be worthwhile for you to get "The Ford Falcon Performance Handbook" by Schjeldahl, it explains...

I don't know the explanation, someone told me the fluid is like a silicon that can harden up, or maybe it gets contaminated and can't flow everywhere it needs to. So I sorta think of it as the fluid is in half the coupling and not the other, so you have MAYBE a few ounces or less than an ounce...

I think the fluid in the fan clutch can go bad, and you might not feel it until a certain RPM. My 351W it was around 2500rpm and up, you didn't notice it at lower rpm. Are you running an explorer fan?

a clutch fan going bad can cause a vibration at higher rpm - I had it happen in an 89 F250, above 2500rpm. Maybe take the fan off and try it - thats a little work, bolts may be too long (or a pain to take out). If you are running a clutched fan that is.

34x9.5 TSL swampers fit my 3.5" lift and fill that front wheel well nicely. I think I can fit a 33x10.5 as I'd like to go wider. So 1" less lift, I'd start with a 32x10.5 and see how it mocked up.

I bought a Napa copper radiator for my 66, for a 65 or 66 mustang, and had to drill I think the 2 lower mounting holes. You can drill the radiator I think, or the core support for sure to match the radiator. So it works fine, the 2 bottom holes were off. If you use the bottom holes as they...

My 66 I got a lokar cable and add on kit, the cable works with the gas pedal, and the right brackets let me run my cable where ever I needed to operate the carb. My 66 doesn't use the firewall bracket, straight cable from pedal to carb.

Keep em coming, I want to do this soon in my 74. I've seen another with the bulkhead fittings there, seems like you have to remove to the engine to work in that spot, I am going to want to better understand the options of where to put that....

Right Right. I got one off Ebay for a stellar price years ago, auction ended like 2am and no one was after it at that time. I'd love to cash out on it, but I don't think there will be new solutions for a 351W lower intake, so it can sit where it is for now....

pictures?
