12/12/2002 - Ever wonder what to do with a V-6 Mustang II?
Well, back in 1974-1975, due to the initial introduction of the Mustang II without a V8, someone was thinking about what to do with the V-6.
We all know about aftermarket intakes, timing sets, carbs, etc. But what would you think about a turbo V-6? Spearco Performance Products developed a solution
that appeared in the January 1975 Road and Track. The article appears in our ads-n-articles section.
12/09/2002 - It is catch-up time.
I finally got some of my old film developed, so I updated the May Mustangs Unlimited show and added in their annual Power Show
that was held in September. It sure would be nice to get some more MustangII participation in these shows - so If you
live in New England, New York, eastern Pennsylvania or New Jersey, check out their site for show dates - they have 3 shows per year.
These shows can be found in our Meets section.
In addition, there have been 4 new Gallery entries in the last couple of weeks and updates to Daniel Gervais' recent entry.

We are Back!
To what is hopefully the joy of many and the consternation of only a couple (ok, maybe 1), MustangII.org is back in business.
Due to a relocation of our hosting ISP that took a bit longer than anyone expected, we had been off-line for several weeks.
This poor server just sat around, collecting dust waiting for the new network connections to be completed, with nothing to do.
Since you all waited so long, we thought we'd let you in on a little project that started quite some time ago (years really) but
never really got a lot of momentum due to the size of the task (and my lack of time). While it isn't much, I hope you enjoy it!

inexpensive fix by replacing the speedometer driven gear. Check out our new charts and calculator in our tech section to

easier to find.
Let us know what you think!
09/11/00
Calculators

size might do to RPMs at cruising speed on the highway. Now we have added calculators to help
you find out.
We've also added a calculator to help you estimate what the final drive ratio is in your II
(assuming no overdrive) as well as a compression ratio calculator for you to play with if you're
thinking of rebuilding your engine.

We have been working behind the scenes to move the original MustangII registry to our site.

maintained by Diane from www.74ghia.com
