Wanted Ads / Re: 1966 Mustang radiator, dist & water pump needed
« Last post by jwc66k on June 14, 2025, 07:19:12 PM »Thanks Bob. I vaguely remember that there was a "strange" water pump casting number discussed but I didn't remember where or specifics.

« Last post by Bob Gaines on June 14, 2025, 06:52:05 PM »Ford "engineering number" C5AE-8501-K is referenced in Bob Mannel's book, "Mustang and Ford Small /Block V8 1962-1969" in Appendix E (Water Pumps, Pg E6) for use in 66/67. Have you got any other information? Just curious.I misspoke. I didn't even look at Bob M book and had the C5OE-B on the brain. That rare one is what I am used to seeing and what I immediately thought of when the C5AE K number came up. I for one have never even seen or heard of a C5AE-K in use so at the very least it must be more rare then the 3 month production run of the C5OE-B at the end of 65 production. Have you ever come across one in a original context or otherwise other then what is mentioned in Bob's appendix? I certainly have not seen them all but given over many years of searching and never come across one or even heard about one ,if any were used past 1965 so it would no doubt be the exception rather then the rule for use on a 66 IMO. Of course Bob's appendix identifies the C5AE-K with a C6OE-A casting number so I am not sure how you would identify it other then a C6OE-A if you were holding it in your hand.

Changeover was 66 job 1 to the C6OE from all evidence.Ford "engineering number" C5AE-8501-K is referenced in Bob Mannel's book, "Mustang and Ford Small /Block V8 1962-1969" in Appendix E (Water Pumps, Pg E6) for use in 66/67.

1970 Boss / 70 Metuchen Built Boss 302 Decal/Stickers
« Last post by J_Speegle on June 14, 2025, 05:33:14 PM »See that (using the search) that we've not covered these items in the past here on the site and since I posted a response on other site figured I should post the pictures and info here also. As always hope this helps others. Changed some of the wording and got rid of the quotes from the OP on the other site.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
First request was related to the tire pressure decal.
Well that one could be clearer
It gets applied to the door jamb (back edge) of the passenger door. Would go with the D0ZA-1532-F version given the plant and production period
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Final item that was mentioned in the posts was the
Engine compartment for a very late 70 Metuchen Boss 302. Got as close as I could with pictures that still had some of the remains of the originals. Since these are unrestored cars, prefer using those rather than a restored car/example if I can help it, not everything you will see in the pictures will be original to the cars so don't get distracted please by things not part of the discussion
From the drivers side -
Green arrow = Battery inspection decal. Don't believe anyone is offering one widely and commercially made of paper like the originals or filled out correctly for a 70 NJ car.
Blue arrow = Air filter service decal. Make sure the reproduction lists on the bottom edge the correct part number of you cars application
Yellow arrow = Engine ID sticker. Originally paper based (like the air cleaner decals) with a clear overlay.
Red arrow = BOSS 302 valve cover decal. As Hopey mentioned on on each valve cover
Engine ID sticker on front of the drivers side valve cover. Make sure to get one that matches your engine. More than one choice when it comes to these. Originals will have torn off ends from tearing (think tape machine details) each from a roll the worker carried.
Also the snorkel timing decals. It's a reproduction but should provide location and orientation
Service sticker location from latter half - to end of production examples
And for others that will be viewing this that do not have shakers
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Trunk decals for cars with the space saver spare tire
And example of the location from a later half 70 NJ built BOSS 302
Don't forget the jack decal
And if you want to go a little further and make it more like it was here are some pictures of the turn and taillight stickers. The LH taillight sticker is often more on the back side (like the RH one) than this single example but it shows that the locations are most often close but not identical every time
+++++++++++++++++++++
We could also discuss and show wire labels form wire looms in both engine compartment and trunk areas of these cars.
+++++++++++++++++++++
It was also mentioned that the yellow arched WARNING decal on the spare tire included in many of the "decal kits" shops sell isn't correct if your looking at presenting your car as built or as delivered to its first buyer.
It's always a challenge when it comes to showing what is incorrect since many people will look and remember what they see but are less likely to even read the captions or other wording. Same thing when I was training as an instructor they stressed that you NEVER show someone how not to do something because by showing them you increase the likely hood that in an emergency they will remember what they saw and repeat it. I got plenty of examples related to this sort of practice that caused injury and lose of life.
But on the subject yes the Yellow space save (with the white with red letter chain warning one) and the CAUTION FAN decals were not original (day they were built or sold to the first owner typically) If you choose to apply them for safety reasons that is up to you and your choice just be aware other people will trust that you put them on the car because they were. Your choice.

Your looking for the ones marked "radio resistance" Maybe more of those made but at the same time more people looking for the same looms
Good luck with the search
