1973 Mach 1 Q code, a 427 Dart based Windsor, Pro Flo 4, Tremec 5 speed, A/C, 12.7:1 steering conversion, SoT coil over and Dakota Digital dash.
I spent last Thursday watching the assembly of my Windsor based 427. I wanted a good street engine making torque/HP in the RPM range I tend to drive. On Friday it was on the dyno for break in and tune. After 16 runs the tune was nailed. I am more than pleased with the results. It is going in my '73 Mach 1 Q-code along with a TKO 600 5 speed. I can't wait to get it on the road.

My water pump, a Stewart Hi-Performance Aluminum one, was provided by Vintage Air as I am going with their Front Runner serpentine system.

 
The final build complete with the Vintage Air Front Runner. Nice tidy package fully 3" narrower than my Cleveland.
