Yup, I'v been noticing weird things like the shift pattern, also, the muffler mount, is a big long strap that is bolted to the unibody up in the rear end hump, the strap comes down and is bolted to a bracket that's spot welded on the muffler body, right next to the outlet, I need to find a way to use this original muffler strap but, bolt a regular mufflar clamp to it or somthing, I got a Thrush Turbo that I was going to put in yesterday but, that muffler strap thing stumped me. Anybody gots any idea's. The Falcon's not compleatly stock, when I bought it, someone put a reman Holley Carb on it and it will have a Thrush turbo, when I figure out the mounting compilications.Quote:

Oh matt, your not being creative. Wander to the top of the strap. You'll find a rivit there. Drill out the rivit, place a comparable bolt in its place, run a standard issue strap(one from a universal gas tank strap kit works well;)) hang a muffler hanger from the strap and tighten down the clamp. You'll find Ford and Non-Factory Creative Fix work hand in hand. Also, starter motor bolts should always have a bead of lock-tite if its on an aluminum transmission for a ford car;)
It's a rubber strap that's there and, it is bolted in, the bottom has a weied bracket that bolts to the mounting bracket on the muffler bodie, I think I'm going to modify the bracket attached to the strap to accept a Muffler hanger and cut the excess off the hanger bolt holes so it's not so long, should work well.Quote:

Ok, so they diddnt change then from 1967-1987. In the grand marqs case the rubber strap was cut. So i drilled it out at the top, and ran my type of setup. Then placed a steel type hanger and ran a muffler clamp through it. Worked like a charm;)
I guess they usedwhatever worked well. I'm trying to coax my mom into letting me put a Turbo muffler in her '94 Concorde because it sounds so nice, even with the stock muffler.Quote:

First, to the guy with the shot tranny in his T-Bird, I would have to agree that a C6 is the best choice. You could rebuild the old trans, if you could find someone who knows what they're doing, but it would be very expensive, probably more than a good C6 would be outright. I'd stay away from a C4 unless you want slipping upshifts under full throttle. C4s are way to light duty to put behind an FE big block; it'd be toast inside of a year if you halfway drove it hard.
To the guy with a wierd shifting pattern in his Cruise-O, I had a '59 Fairlane with a 332 FE and a Cruise-O-Matic. It had D, D2, and L on the shift selector on the steering column. If you put it in D, it started in low, shifted automatically to second, and then again into drive (or third). If you put it into D2, it started in second and shifted into drive automatically. If you put it into L in started in first and stayed there until you selected another range. I distinctly remember putting this car into D2 on muddy roads so as to put the power to the wheels without slipping, and it did help. I lived way out of town where muddy roads were the norm, so I did this quite often. I have an '88 Bronco with a 351W and a C6, and it does exactly the same thing the old Cruise-O did with respect to gear selection. The only difference I can tell (other than the trans is obviously different) is that D2 has been replaced with 2 and L has been replaced with 1 on the column selector.
