Heres my problem.... I get a strange smell while driving and especially when there is a cross wind. It smells like burning hair (best way I can explain it). It is not a brake or clutch smell, It isn't like a wire or plastic type smell that would be common if a wire was touching something hot. A good friend and expert mechanic who assembles SPF's and is a Ford master mechanic drove the car and smelled it as well (so I'm not imagining it) and could not determine what it is or where it is coming from. He thought it might be coming from the heater box, so we taped all open areas shut...Still the smell. Dave Bates had a similar smell and it turned out to be the Voltage regulator. I checked and sniffed around that area and no smell, leak etc. was noticed. I am baffled....Has anyone experienced this? I am running a 427 side-oiler.
