Probably a silly question and the answer is right in front of my face but...how the heck do you PM someone on this site? Or send a member an email? I can't find an obvious way to do this. Is it part of "Conversations"?
Thanks,
Dave

Not HiPo specific, but the In Search of Mustangs website has a comprehensive Registry, you can register your Kar there...

I've had this for years, was planning to use it on my 66 while detailing the original spacer but no longer need it. Don't know what the original application is, possibly truck or perhaps a period Ford generic part based on the original larger 3/4" water pump snout hole which allows a sleeve to be used for 5/8" pump snout applications as well. I've installed the 5/8" sleeve so ready to go on a 289 water pump.
Total length 2.39", length between mounting surfaces: 2.11". This is only 1/32" longer that an OE HiPo spacer which would never be noticed when installed. If you don't have a correct HiPo spacer this would be a great alternative, excellent condition for it's age.
$30, USA shipping included.
Thanks,
Dave

I have the original Mustang owner's manual for 6F07K333719, would like to reunite it with the car if possible. Car was purchased 5/14/66 from Marv Tonkin Ford in Portland, OR.

Back in 1980 it was a popularly held belief there were 6 convertibles built at the end of 66 GT350 production. Now we know there were only four, 6S2375 (green), 6S2376 (yellow), 6S2377 (red), and 6S2378 (blue). As mentioned the first continuation was numbered 6S2381. As Fred indicated all are accounted for according to the latest 66 SAAC Registry.

I just bought a package deal of Shelby parts and it had a block with vin and heads. 6r09k146324. Will be looking at selling the heads, but would like to find out if the car is out there still. I am in Tucson, Arizona.
Have you tried contacting Howard Pardee, 65-66 SAAC Registrar, to see if by chance this block is from a 66 GT350? Howard's email is: saachp@snet.net

Eddie,
What style valve stem are you using? I have one original 66 GT350 10-spoke that would leak no matter what with the OE style rubber stem. Replaced it with the newer style metal stem with tightening nut and problem solved.

Thanks!

Original 67 GT350, K-code fan spacer, total length including pilot 2.74". Correct C4 assemblyline style, not the more common C8 service replacement. One mounting hole is a little distorted on the fan side, probably from overtightening, but nothing that would affect use. Otherwise this is in fantastic condition, no hammer marks or corrosion. Very clear Dorman and FoMoCo logo castings. $115 which includes shipping in the USA.
Please PM or email if interested.
Thanks,
Dave -
Yep, you're right, my bad... thought it was for the repro one...
Looks like it did sell! -
What date code are you seeking?
-Fred-
Fred,
Based on cars near mine with original engines my original block would most likely have mid-late Feb dates.
Thanks,

Thought I would throw this out there just incase, been searching for a C-Servo cover for my C4 HiPo transmission for a while. Mine cracked and I had to replace it with a California Pony Cars re-pop, which I don't like
Specifically looking for a C6TP version as shown in the attached photo.
Thanks,
Jason
Here's one...

A real long shot but...looking for the original block in my 66 GT350, 6S1757, Ford VIN 6R09K178xxx. Engine blew during a road race in 1973, one rod punched a hole in the cylinder. Block was likely scrapped but if it does exist will have a hole or sleeve in one cylinder. Any Ford VIN close please email or PM me.
Thanks,
Dave -
Thanks Fred, Marv, and Niko!

A related side note...I recently found a local 76 station selling pure gas and filled up my 2009 Ranger 4X4 with 87 octane. I have been using 87 octane E10 and average rock steady low-18's mpg. Just filled up again this morning and the tank of pure gas got 18.9 mpg, normal driving habits. The only times I've ever gotten over 18.5 mpg is on long road trips with mostly highway miles. This is only one tank but at least some food for thought...
