Hi All,
Apologies if this has been asked before, but how many impeller blades should
a Hipo 67 water pump have?
Thank you.
Dave

Hi All,
So I have a late production 67 GT350 and was wondering
if anyone could post a photo of what the jack should look like? I have
researched it but am finding different looking jacks supposedly for a 67
Thanks for your time.

Hi All,
I am getting ready to order parts for my Shelby's  289 hipo rebuild and have not ordered
from JEGS before just was wondering if anyone has feedback on ordering from them?
also I will probably replace my old balancer and Scott Drake makes a Hipo balancer that is
supposed to be correct minus the ford logo.  I was thinking
about using this as well, but again has anyone used one of these balancers? Your time
and input is appreciated.
Thanks

Hi All,
I may rebuild my 67 Shelby's 289 hipo soon and may want to use
roller tip rockers , I want to use the original valve covers without modifying 
them,  the baffles will not clear on most brands of roller rockers and  valve cover
spacers are not acceptable. Has anyone found a quality brand that will clear everything?
Thanks much.

Hi All,
So my 67 came from the mid west and is now at 5000 ft. elevation
seems to be running very rich. I have not taken the carb apart yet so I don't
know what jets are in it but probably too big. Would anyone have a good
recommendation for primary jets as a starting point for this altitude?
thanks much!

Hi All,
So I was wondering if a 67 Shelby has an AM/FM ford radio
that was factory installed would that be noted on the Marty report?
my car has one but it could have been installed by a previous owner.
Thanks for any ideas.

hi all,
This may have been asked before ,sorry to repeat the question
but the current spare in my 67 is just jammed into place so much
so that the previous owner just left it flat.  Is there a size you have
found for a 10 spoke wheel that can fit a little better and include air?
Thanks .
Dave

Hi all,
So I need to change the fuel filter on my 715 cfm Holley(67 GT350)
would anyone know the over the counter part number for it?
could be Fram or some equivalent. Maybe where to buy
Thanks much 

Hi All,
I know this has been asked before but I would like to ask for opinions in a slightly different way.
So you have 2 identical 67 GT-350's .  Car "A" has born with matching engine .  Car "B' has a correct
engine but not original to the car.  If there is a price difference for car "B" typically how much less should it be?
Also would this be a large negative on buying car "B" as far as desirability is concerned ?
Any opinions much appreciated!
Dave

If you are the current owner of 66 Shelby SFM6S1177 or SFM6S2329 I would like to chat with you if you have time
please P.M. me.
thanks,
Dave

Hi All,
So I fired up 6S715 and went to the Shelby Museum show last Saturday, I believe there
were 100 or more cars in the show and everyone seemed to enjoy the event. I happened
to be standing behind the winner of the new Shelby won in the drawing , he was pretty excited. If you
are in the Denver area the museum is a must see as it is full to the top with genuine Shelby's, Cobras
and GT40's.

Hi All,
So I have some friends that may want to attend the convention , will there be any day tickets for spectators at the gate?
