T-Bird/Cougar Parts & Cars WANTED / fuel pump lock ring
Ok I have tried ordering several fuel pump lock rings and everyone keeps sending me the small fuel level sender ring. Does anyone have a tank laying around that they can send me the fuel pump lock ring and gasket. My tank is now sumped so I'm only needing it to seal up the hole. The guy that did my sump plate lost it when he welded in my plate.

Lounge / Advise on a past sale
I need some input from some of you.
About 3 mo ago I had my procharged 306 up for sale I was origbuttstuffy trying to get 3500. I ended up selling it threw another fourm. The guy I sold it to beat me up on the price pretty good and I ended up letting it all go for 2800 I agreed to basically throw everything I had in the deal including the two sets of brackets I had, an fmu,  i I even threw in an aluminum mustang drive shaft and also halled everything from kc up to DeMoines.
Three mo later I get a text from the guy.

The procharger aparently needs reclocked (I had no idea that it was clocked wrong)

I had the procharger mounted on the engine using the brackets that kept the ac. When I bought the brackets the guy I bought them from sold me kind of a two for one deal one set was with ac and one set was supposed to be a renagade setup. Since I was using the ac setup I never really payed any attention to the renagade setup. Aparently the renagade setup I had was for a D1.
I told him up front that I bought the short block used and didn't do anything to it except for changing the cam. He is pissed because he went ahead and pulled the heads and removed the head studs and is claming that no sealant was used on the studs and wants me to buy new head gaskets (the motor was sold to him with a brand new set of commetic mls gaskets I told him there is no need for new head gaskets just recopper coat and reuse the engine was never fired)

He is also trying to say that I said the heads were brand new (I swear I never told anyone the heads were brand new I said i had my machine shop do a valve job and milled the heads for the new guide plates and roller rockers)

There is a whole list of other nitpickey items he is also complaning about.

He has prety much everything pieced out up for sale on another fourm.

I talked with my brother in law who I got the blower from he is a procharger dealer. He said he would pay to have it reclocked as long as it went threw his shop.

I offered the guy a little money and told him I would pay shipping to and from my brother in-laws shop and the shop would pay to reclock.

He replied that he doesn't want to go threw the shop he just wants me to send him $300

What should I do

Suspension/Steering / 5 lug swap
Ok here goes. I have a friend that has a 96 mustang. The rear is Built up with 35 spline axels and a locker (I'm going to need this for my setup). He got this car on a trade and is just planning on selling it as is. What we would like to do is swap my TC rear end for his. I know that the rear would be simple enough but I am 4 lug he is 5 lug can we swap the 4 and 5 lug stuff over from the front as well? He really doesn't care if he ends up with a 4 lug setup on his 96 as long as it doesn't end up costing anything to do it.
