    Hello, everyone, my name is is jordan, and I am a fordaholic. Sorry to say I have been a chevy man all my life, but have recently been converted to the blue oval! This is my first ford, a 71 Mav. It is a standard 2 door with 250 ci and three speed. Bought it from a good friend of mine whose grandmother passed away and he didn't want. 56,000 original miles, only minor rust around the hood trim-of course. thanks ford. all original--:evilsmile for now. have a 302 stroked to 321, h beam rods, 11.5:1 forged pistons, steel crank, victor jr intake, waiting on heads from jeg's. Ordered headers tonight from summit.

    not sure about the tranny yet-either t5 or c-4. probably t5 for more fun.

    any one have suggestions for wheels, etc? will post pics soon.
