21.04 · WTB OEM US Royal redline tire 21.04 January 24, 2020 at 9:57 AM

I’m hunting for one more NOS or very nice original US Royal redline tire with virtually no tread wear. Ok if stripes are slightly faded but can’t have dry rot or cracks.

21.04 · WTB Original HP manifold tag 6B 21.04 January 24, 2020 at 9:46 AM

I’m hunting for an original HP engine manifold tag for 4spd Mustang with manual trans and 6B date. I know repros are available but am collecting parts for a t-bred. Hopefully someone has a non-original engine in their Kar and won’t mind parting with a tag. I do have a 5M dated tag I can trade for 6B as well.

Outstanding job Quentin! You're fortunate to have met and talked with the original owner of your hi-po. I'm sure you've learn a lot about the car's history that helped you restore it along the way. Congrats.

I have an extra NOS 4201S '66 fuel pump that I won't be using for my project. Date is 4/27/67. I don't have the box or the gasket that would have come with the pump from Ford, but it's new, never rebuilt and never mounted on a car. $1,400.

21.04 · WTB NOS Standard bore hi-po pistons 21.04 May 8, 2011 at 2:57 PM

After I'd received the single from Bob Allen, I had a few questions about the other 7 to make sure they would make a match set. Couldn't get them answered and was put in a spot to take it or leave it with a few hours to decide. I had to unfortunately pass on them.

Looks like I may be hunting NOS standard pistons again. I do have 1 I picked up from Bob Allen Ford this week. Need another 7, but would buy a whole set. Preferably 60's production era.

Love the color! I'd bet your starting to feel the rewards of all the hours you've put into the car. Awesome job.

I've ordered the single piston from Bob Allen Ford, and made arrangements with Dan for the 7 others he has. Bill at Bob Allen says it's in their wharehouse. We'll see if it makes it to my doorstep later this week. Thanks for the lead, whether I get the part or not!

21.04 · RE: NOS Hi-po Comet fan blade 21.04 April 22, 2011 at 12:51 PM

It is a 5 blade clutch fan with the specs that you've mentioned. Bob Mannel's book references it for use on 6cyl cars. There is also an appendix on fan blades and referrences this with the special uses as I've described. I'm not sure what I have and am hoping someone will recognize it and/or could use it. Thanks for looking this up.

21.04 · RE: NOS Hi-po Comet fan blade 21.04 April 21, 2011 at 2:33 PM

I know this is more of a Mustang forum, but I went to a Ford dealer garage sale a few years ago grabbing parts at random because they were cheap. I went through a parts book and see I may have a '65 clutch fan blade. Left the Part # at home, but think it is C3OZ-8600-D in Fomoco box. The book indicates it was possibly used on the first 1000 '65 Comet units and on hi-po Comets when the vicious power option was asked for. Any ideas on a market value on this piece? Probably a tough part if your looking for one, but I'd suspect it's a limited market.

Thanks guys. I'll call Bob and see if he can help with a single. I'd want to know I can get a full set before I buy a partial. If I can locate one more, then I'd be interested. Thanks!

I'm looking for an NOS set of standard bore pistons, preferably early generation production in Fomoco boxes.

21.04 · Bellhousing Date Question 21.04 April 18, 2011 at 12:29 PM

Tom and I have early Fomoco boxed bellhousings. Mine has a spot of orange paint about 2 or 3 inches in diameter right behind where the starter goes. I was not aware that there was any difference in bellhousings used for a hi-po than a standard 289 car. Anyone know why mine would have orange paint and Tom's does not? I have a photo I could post if I knew how to post it. Part # on my bellhousing is C5AA-6394-B, and part #s on box are C5AZ-6392-A, C5AA-6392-B? or D?

Bob,

I've sent you a PM about the blade.

Matt

21.04 · Bellhousing Date Question 21.04 March 23, 2011 at 11:48 AM

I believe the date on the 64-67 hi-po bell housing is located on the inside as the year only. C5 part # on an outside edge. At least the NOS piece I have is that way. Once installed, no way to tell what date the piece is. Unless your taking photos of the date to display with the car, I don't beleive there are any visual differences between which year housing you have. If any one has a housing dated on the outside, I'd be interested to learn about it.

Ad indicates a non original motor. A repro door tag to me is a red flag that someone along the line has made some changes to bring a higher price and then throw away the orignal to conceal what has been done. Otherwise, why not at least keep the original door tag as a souvenir?
