• Hi all,


    I plan to fully restore my 66 K Code Auto Coupe next year here in Western Australia (WA).


    Now, whilst there are plenty of mustang enthusiasts and some great skills out there to restore Mustangs in WA, I'm sure that you'll appreciate that we only have a tiny fraction of the market size that you guys have in the US...


    The challenge that I am anticipating is the ability to source an experienced workshop(s) to overhaul/rebuild/restore my HiPo engine and the K code C4 transmission.


    I thought that I'd ask you guys whether there are any guides, detailed instruction resources or even "full overhaul/rebuild kits" that I could purchase to give to a quality engine builder and transmission shop to ensure that they are given the best resources and explanation on how best to overhaul/rebuild the HiPo motor and K code C4 transmission.


    Regards.....Paul

  • Well that's two K code auto's in Australia that I now know of...I wonder how many more we can rustle up?


    I'll certainly send you an email via the email address on your profile to let you know how I get on...


    I'm really hoping that there are some detailed resources that I can obtain via this forum to make the task a lot easier to ensure that I do in fact overhaul/restore/rebuild my HiPo engine and the K code C4 transmission correctly.


    I am going to find the best quality engine builder and transmission shop I can find here in WA, but I'd still like to do whatever I can to ensure that they are given the best resources and explanation possible on how best to tackle the work.


    Regards.....Paul

  • Ahhhh, C-4 hipo autos, my passion.... There was a recent thread regarding the inner workings of this rare auto trans....the parts to overhaul a genuine hipo C-4 doesn't involve rare parts...AS LONG AS YOU KEEP THE RARE PARTS INSIDE THAT ARE REUSEABLE. aftermarket " bands", parts that wear, are still readily available. see Bob Mannel's small block Fords epic work. There is continuing help here as you go along..Cheers, mate.<img src=images/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=images/icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
