i went with the TKO 600 tremec transmission which i really like. on my build i have a 71 block, 69 heads that were mildly ported but mainly had the roofs raised with a xe274 cam. i love the cam in a manual car because it ends so nicely at 650ish and it so tame and it revs to 6000. the torque above 2000 is so strong. the motor is topped with a offenhauser port o sonic intake and a 870 street avenger. i use to have crites 2 inch primary headers and i downsized to PPA 1 3/4 primary tube headers primary for the ground clearance issues, going into 3 inch head pipes into 3 inch magnaflow mufflers and 2.5 tail pipes (tail tips now rusted and need to be replaced)Okay Olie,
What 5 speed setup did you go with? What type of build have you done with your 460? No doubt that is one fun ride!
are you thinking about joining the 460 club here?
yes i found the drum brake spindles and hubs in a junkyard in minnesota (i love the internet) the spindles was 75 to my door, and the hubs/drum were 70 to my door (drums tossed in the trash) = $145. i had to clean them up really good and all but happy with the price.Did you end up getting drum brakes on the front or what were you up to?
still going with the cobra brake set up with the applicable year magnum 500's in 18's. its going to be a while because next wednesday is my SURGERY DATE on my chest!!!!
i was going to do one of those on my IPHONE today. and to especially show you guys how nice, low and tamed i got a xe274 cam idling. (never in a million year it'll idle so smooth with a automatic)look s great. I especially love the flower seat covers haha. The paint job looks fantastic can't wait for a vid to here it grumble ::goodjob::
those seat covers are hawaiian seat covers and are green. they are originally on my dad's green boss 351. those are just there temporarily and i plan on using some racing seats so i can recline the seat some and just have better seats.Olie
Did you have to shorten the drive shaft for the 5spd setup? She looks great love the colour combo, Ford should have done that originally.
The flowered seat covers remind me of Hawaii...the ones you get a Hilo Hattie's!!

i originally had c6, i actually had to have the driveline lengthen. legally, no driveline shop can lengthen a drive line. they cut off my tube and replaced it with a brand new one. the price for the tube, balancing, new u-joints came out to be 180 dollars or so.Olie
