I had a C5AE-M casting on my 1966 September 65 Metucheon built Hipo convertible and it was defintely original.

-Fred-

Disc brakes were an available option on all 8 cylinder Mustangs including Hipos. Power steering was available on all Mustangs except Hipos.

-Fred-

Steve, You are correct that Ford did not make GT Kars that early in production for the 1965 model year.

-Fred-

Pete, Are you possibly asking about the C6AZ transistor regulator from the 1966 era? If you are, they were never on Mustangs.

-Fred-

Pete, I stand corrected on the 66 application as you are correct.

-Fred-

Charles, I have an MPC that has not been updated since 1970, which has numbers and applications that are absent from the current 1975 final edition. I also have the 1975 final edition of the MPC. Both of them have 38, 42 and 45 amp alternators as being the only ones available on Mustangs for 65 and 66. The 55 amp version was not available on a Mustang until 67. There is no listing on alternators for Mustangs based on engine size or horsepower in either of my MPC's. I hope that this is of some help here.

Pete, I have a lot of references including a Ford master parts catalog that has not been updated since 1970 which makes it have a lot of the numbers and specifications that are absent in the later versions. I was a Ford parts manager for twenty years so these books make perfect sense to me. Again, I will look this stuff up when I return home on Wednesday.

-Fred-

Pete, I will not be home until Wednesday to look this up in my books however I am pretty sure that the 4 speed and C4 share the same driveshaft with a Hipo. The Hipo is shorter than a standard 289 due to the 9 inch rear end. I will look the springs up when I get home if this has not been resolved by then however I am pretty sure that the springs are the same for a 4 speed and C4 Hipo car. They used the same heavy duty springs as a GT equipped standard 289 car.

-Fred-

I have a can of the same stuff with the same warning and it is ironic that the name "Aircraft paint remover" would have the warning about not using it on aircraft. Why then would it be called "aircraft" paint remover?

-Fred-

Iowa Dave, I just sent you a PM regarding your pump.

-Fred-

David, Your pump is actually not correct for your 66 as it is for a generator car. The 8 vane impeller makes it for a standard rather than a Hipo engine. Your 66 should have a cast iron water pump with a C6OE casting and the appropriate timing cover.
