Ben, we need the Burbank Choppers history documentary!!! Filmed like the Shifters documentary, it would rule.

[@FourSpeedFilms]

That would be cool!

[@Cradletothegrave67]

As a hot rodder who was born in Burbank and lived there for 30 years, I second a Burbank Choppers doc !!

[@lorollinls]

I’ve been waiting on a good Burbank Choppers documentary for a hot minute!

[@robjudge181]

I support this message, 💯 %

[@AndyKruseChannel]

My favorite part was showing that sometimes it doesn't work as planned, but then you and Mike worked through and found a great solution!! Nice!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Glad you liked the vid!

[@red_fox_flareside]

Another great video Ben! You captured everything realistically. So many videos have everything go “perfectly” and that’s just not real. Sometimes these classics make us bang our head on the wall. I’m glad everything ended up working out! Wilwood is a great company. I remember a guy helped me over the phone with brake questions and I didn’t even have Wilwood brakes. Awesome people there.

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Much appreciated!

[@timmmckenny1806]

Great video. Production is top notch, really enjoyed being able to see very clearly what’s happening. Some good little tips in there as well. Thanks!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Much appreciated!

Something that was a issue on the car I’m building right now, excellent information. I’ve used Wilwood components on a few of my cars, always good stuff!

[@davevan8864]

Yep.....Old cars are fun!!! Today I will install, for the 3rd time in 3 days, a accelerator pump diagram on a Autolite 4100 carb. Maybe today I can keep it from spraying fuel all over the engine bay!!!! It's always something!!!! Thanks

[@mechaniaclife]

Paint looks great with the cover on!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

lol

[@singularity7968]

I just put a Wilwood kit on the front of my 69 fastback. Nice kit. Went together perfectly.

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Nice!

[@apostle55family]

Ben, once again a great looking and very realistic and informative video. Huge thanks also to Mike at Wilwood,; he has convinced me to look to them for future brake needs on my shoebox chevy. Thanks and kind regards

[@jerrynavarro2404]

Man like I said before and I say it again your mustang is bad ass ! Keep up the excellent work my friend 👏 man hopefully 1 day i will own my very own 66 mustang your giving me inspiration to and ideas 💡 for what to do if I get 1 ! I remember seeing the 65 ford mustang for the first time when I was 10 years old watching celly cel music video gets going down tonight! Ever since then I loved the classic mustangs

[@kevincraw5142]

Hey Ben - thanks for posting this. I'm at the point of mounting a Wilwood conversion on my '66 Mustang, so was watching really closely. I think I'm seeing that you have the same issue I've discovered - it appears that when your brake rotor/hat is snugged down on the rear hubs, they're actually sitting proud of the hub plate by 1/8-3/16 of an inch. That's what it looks like on the screen anyway. I have the same problem. I talked to Wilwood just now- they agreed it's gotta be flush and clamped with the lug nuts, or there's no integrity to the mounting. I just figured out the cause of the problem on my car. The rotor hat from Wilwood has wheel stud holes bored at 0.50 +/- inch. But the actually base of the studs is not cut or threaded, and measures 0.530 inch diameter, over a length of about 1/8 inch from the hub face. So to make it fit flush/properly, the holes in the rotor/hat have to be bored out thirty thousandths. Hope I'm wrong, but for your safety's sake, please take a look. Best- Kevin

Another cool video, glad you are interested in owning a 58 year old car and keeping it going vs just driving a new car or EV.

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks for watching!

[@talonmcmanus88]

Ben your videos are by far my favorite on KZbin, excellent film quality and always interesting content. I always look forward to the mustang videos!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Much appreciated!

[@TheJoefussGarage]

Hey there Ben, doing the work, with Wilwood, in their shop, and showing the "Learning proces" is going help so many home installers.. Great details, doing the hybrid thing, using some original Ford parts and some Wilwood kit parts, to make a good compromise... Keep it up brother...!!!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks for watching!

[@2-old-Forthischet]

Not to down play car covers, BUT I used to have many different types of car covers on my Mustang as it was stored in an outside space at a storage yard. Most car covers lasted about a year in the brutal So Cal sun. After I sold the car, I found out about Sunbrella covers. They can be custom fitted to whatever you want by a good shop but they are pricey. I had one made specifically for my boat I had at a storage yard. It wasn't cheap but it was great. In fact, my GF made some travel trailer tire covers for me out of a 20 something year old Sunbrella boat cover and it still is in great shape. Too bad they don't have self adjusters for that parking brake setup. I just saw a video of newer Ford models having electronic parking brakes. That would be something cool!

[@ausguy4385]

That's a available upgrade even for old cars also by wilwood

[@jcllh3276]

I love wilwood I’ve always had good experiences with their products!

[@johnmilner7603]

6:58 On my 70 Z28 the star wheel adjuster on the rear drum brakes only turns in 1 direction b/c there’s a star wheel adjusting arm and Its job is to advance the star wheel, takeing up wear in the breaks at each reverse stop and also to keep the star wheel from backing off. So in order to release the width of the shoes you have to lift up on the arm with a screwdriver then turn the star wheel in the opposite direction.

[@GnarlySpeedShop]

Mike is the man!!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Yes he is👏

[@wolfthornhawkridge5705]

How cool is that to be able to go to Wilwood to get them installed properly. Looking good!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Hopefully it will help a bunch of people!

[@israelpinal1645]

Love your content ! Keep up the good work!

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Much appreciated!

[@josemedeiros007]

Great video and information, unfortunately using the factor E-Brake crossbar will not work if you use a Richmond 5 or 6 speed or a Tremec T56 6 speed on early Mustangs as the transmission cross member is replaced and has no mounting braket for it, I took pictures of how Mustang Plus in Stockton, California used a Lokar E-Brake kit on their 66 Mustang Fastback restomod with a Tremec T56 Magnum 6 speed when it was up on the rack for their car show.

[@mrsaiyanaa]

Great video up to the problem point. I understood the setup up to that point, and I have no clarity on the setup for the revised setup.

[@royenri01]

Good lord. I'll just carry some wheel chocks in the trunk. 😂 Great tutorial and video nonetheless.

[@wayneosullivan6111]

As usual, great work from you again. Was trying to see where the cable was channeled around the rear. Have my cable still sitting in its bag for a couple of years now. On my 65, original cable seems to go between chassis rail and body. Did you follow this original line also?

[@thegraystang66]

@505speeds Ebrakes on a classic mustang :-D

[@fahoooooooooooooood1]

Please tell the guys at wilwood to make a video on how to install Electronic Emergency Brake, the kit they offer with no cables and everything is triggered with a push button. Good job though 👍

[@zikedivelo7963]

it's very nice Bullit

[@blaiseuriarte8296]

What size tires are on that?

[@mikebroszczak5767]

What size are your tires, and how wide is the rim. Please reply thanks

[@nickefgen9219]

I need this setup for my 1967 mustang fastback

[@FourSpeedFilms]

That would be great

[@Watch067]

How much was the car cover?

[@donsmanufactory]

I dunno, that's why the factory balance arm was wide, to provide drive line clearance. Could have used all the factory stuff with the new cables.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

👍👍👍👍

[@FourSpeedFilms]

Thanks!

[@sacooper802]

i threw away the complicated original e-brake and went with a Lokar Brand brake lever that goes in between the seats, way cleaner.

[@ML-dl1cp]

Great upgrade but I have to say the brake lever location in the 65/66 Mustang is just bad, and more at home in a grocery-getter than a performance car. One of the first mods I did to my 65 was to relocate the e-brake lever to between the seats, using a brake lever from a late model Mustang (I think the donor was a '94). Give it a try, you'll like it.

[@melodiesaremi9543]

Nice
