    Over the winter I performed some updates on the driver Falcon.. I replaced the on top of the light switch fuse block with one on the inner fender.. Made a radio block off plate and painted the dash plastic.. Also installed new molded carpet and factory seat upholstery.. Adjusted the sloppy shifter linkage and now I think I'm ready for some summer cruising.. What did you guys get done over the winter?? It was very cold in Ohio this past winter and a good opportunity to get some much needed updates done....**clic pic** 100_4094.JPG 100_4097.JPG 100_4106.JPG 100_4107.JPG

    I have been fighting a hard shifting into 2nd for a year and finally found the problem.. Got under the car with the trans in 2nd gear and studied it for about 2 minutes when I saw the first-second rod hitting the top of the first-second boss on the side of the trans.. 30 seconds with a grinder and problem fixed.. Wish I looked harder a year ago.. Oh well, slamming second now and boy is it fun.... **clic pic** 100_3995.JPG

    What's a good header fit for 289/ 4 speed with original "Z" bar.. Going to update exhaust and I know there can be issues around the "Z" bar.. Thanks for any help...
