Hi! I have a 7308 loader with a heavy duty bucket and because the bucket has a large rolled top lip I was wondering what the best way would be to install bucket hooks.

Brad I have the same loader and bucket I put clevis hooks on each corner by the rolled part I also got a pair of hooks from the NH dealer they look like handles with a place to put a chain link in. I put these on the top of the bucket. You can see the handle type hooks in my picture #6 and the corner hooks in #18. ....

Mark the car dynoed at 538HP at the rear wheels so estimated flywheel HP is 640. It is very squirrelly with street tires If I want it to hook I must run drag radials or full slicks. The entire drive train is custom. I bought the car new as a 1999 Roush mustang stage II then rebuit the drive train. ....

I hope you have 4-point harness in there instead of the regular belts.
It's hard to conceive making that much HP with modern gasolines in an engine that will fit in a Mustang. ....

No just regular belts. It is amazing that 281 cubic inches can produce that much power. It is not easy I smoked 3 motors trying to get to this point. There is probably another 50-60 hp in the motor but at this point I have it tuned very rich an conservative. I went a little crazy several years ago with the whole "fast and furios sreet racing Thing" After a few close calls and the fact that the car was well known in the area and nobody else would race me I thankfuly outgrew it. Now I do mostly car shows. Last year I put less than 400 miles on the car. ....
