Welcome from Montana!
Quick question, is the Comet and Marquis (midsize) hood/front emblem the same? Found one on a Marquis in the wrecking yard but didn't know if it...
Yes, and yes.
I say, build what you like regardless of how many doors! My race car is a 4 door. As for the headers, that's not a bad idea at all. They WILL...
Yep, just keep the original firing order.:christmas:
Always the exhaust first. Any other gain you make will be minimal until the exhaust is freed up. Try running, but only exhaling through a straw....
I had my suspicions, just looking for as many cheap ways to lighten the car and be legal for my class. I swapped the front to drums because that...
Just wondering if anyone has used Scarebirds disc conversions front or rear? My main question is, are they any lighter than the factory discs or...
So with Bruce and myself, there are at least 3 of these cars that will be new to the scene in 2014, plus a couple already lurking around...
Those heads are for Super Stock, the wording in the class guide is iffy, according to my division tech guy.
Frank, please grab an NHRA rulebook before ticking off those of us who race these cars. Hell, send me your address and I will send you one! The...
And cheating won't last long if a guy tries. If you win, you get torn down. Qualify #1 (furthest under your class index)? Teardown. Set a new...
Because if you claim the car as a 75, it had better fit what they look for as a 75. Someone inevitably will complain. Bruce, I am building one...
I still have drums up front, but its a drag race only car, and I do it for the weight savings and a tight budget. If the car ends up faster than...
If it's the 250 6cyl, the trans will work, all you will need is the V8 frame mounts (ask around here or Auto Krafters has new for 200), and make...
I would actually love to see a stout 200 build, or better yet, and this is my someday goal: Coyote swap.
Should hear 3 clicks or clunks on a C4 converter vs 2 on the GM stuff...
Thanks. Ended up with a Jo-Han kit to raid the front and rear goodies, a 67 Stang for the chassis and floorpan, and an AMT 65 Stang for its 289...

I have a pair of 66 289 manifolds if all else fails. Hs anyone tried a pair of Fox Body manifolds? It would seem they're in a tight spot too?
