    71 Mach1(Trans Am) 2" nose drop

    The amount of work, time and skill you put into this car is awesome. I wish I had half that much skill. Keep up the work, she will be well worth it!

    I figured out the H/M air cleaner and got that installed. It has the original Distibutor with electronic ignition installed. Would it be worth swapping a different distributor?

    Car flipper cautionary tale.

    My son got burned on a big block GTX, I know MOPAR, but I would never buy anything I didn't inspect. There are righteous people out there , but there also scammers.

    Ford truck commercial features 71-72 Mach 1

    It makes sense since the Fords own the Lions, but it was sure nice to see our version of the Mustang in the reveal. The old school logo was also awesome, even though some panned it.

    Oh my God!

    I remember when I was 15 and my dad was teaching me to drive in his courier truck with a manual. He told me I was doing 35 in a 25 and needed to slow down. I told him I couldn't slow down, I was in 3rd gear. Duh, downshift son!

    Off the shelf 3rd member that drops into our cars?

    Don't know what your budget is, but I have had really good luck with Strange Engerineering. You can buy a complete bolt on rear end for under 3K. They will narrow it for no extra cost. You can customize it with anything you want, again budget willing. It didn't cost as much as I thought and they...

    Holman Moody 427 engine

    I found this engine on E Bay. I am looking for my Galaxie. It is a center oiler but apparently was built for HM for the Wood brothers. What do you think? It is pricey but complements the theme I am building. https://www.ebay.com/b/Other-Engines-Components-for-427/33612/bn_59532090

    Dyno tune

    I understand what you are saying. This is a street car and will only see the track once in a while. I am looking to optimize street performance without getting further into the engine. I just want to get the most out of what I already have.

    Dyno tune

    Thanks for the responses. I wasn't really interested in the numbers, just to get the carb and timing dialed in to get the most out of the engine as it is now.

    Down the "more power is always better" rabbit hole?

    Quite the collection, very nice. I would give my left, uhhhh arm for an original H/M 427 or 406.

    Down the "more power is always better" rabbit hole?

    I have definately been down this hole before. When I was a kid I had a 65 mustang with a high winding 289 in it. It ran low 13's at 120 MPH. I had traction issues even then. I bent a valve and instead of redoing the heads, I put a 351C in it. A lot of work and money. Had to notch the shock...
