    Yesterday I drove out to an old friend's place to see his born-again 73 Comet GT Clone. I haven't seen it in at least 15 years! It is now a tubbed sub-10.00sec race car with a 434.

    Nothing other than moved it so I could get the truck in and work on it. Started to get after the injectors and ended up cussing the Ford engineers and said the heck with it. They did a great job on those 460's, it looks like an easy job until you get started then you realize how tangled all that crap is. Keeping it long enough to finish the landscaping and then it's GONE!
