This looks very nice! If I hadn't just finished getting all the parts to re-do my factory setup, I would have gone this way.

Thanks for posting that!

I checked it out, and all I saw were for Mustangs and Cougars.

It's not pictured, but at the top of the page it does say "Kits available for 1965-1970 Mustangs and Cougars (small and big block) and 1967-1972 F-100 w/ FE engine". Those definitely look nice! :thup: I'm gonna have to add them to the Links page for future reference.

Those are nice, though sealed bearings might last longer in the pivot than the shielded ones he's using and you can buy a real nice hydraulic system for the price of just a Z bar.

I hope that the black is just a protective coating to protect the solid gold during shipment... :doh:
