          • New update on my YouTube channel! Been driving it and attended its first outing at cars n coffee this morning. 150 miles so far. All is good.

            Now having 147 Miles on the clock and getting closer to completion here is a video full less undercarriage. The door pockets and armrests will be Parchment. ...

            • That thing sounds like an absolute animal. Beautiful work!

                    It fired instantly on first attempt. I have been messing with settings a bit to refine it. Mostly timing and accel pump at different temps. Now starts easy and has great throttle response. Sounds nice too.
                    Converter is a bit slippery though but manufacturer says with the amt of torque I have that is as tight as they can make it. Liveable but is costing me MPG.

                    After the new year may switch to a Hydraulic Roller Cam vs the Solid Roller.

                    But now it runs n drives awesome.

                    The HUGE race inspired sway bar really helps the handling. Have not pushed it too hard yet but so far so good.

                      • God, that thing is just drop dead gorgeous and sounds just angry enough to be a proper blast to drive. Well done! Enjoy the bejeezus out of it!

                          • It is a bit angry sounding! Just how I like it

                              I'd almost kick my Buicks out for your Fords

                              • What I like about the FEs and the Buicks - do NOT sound like a Chevy. Not sure I know why but the sound is unique.
