I'm not suggesting fantasy stuff that won't run on the street. More like an Edelbrock Performer RPM dual plane, topped with a 750 cfm vacuum secondary carb. A set of 1 5/8" primary long tube headers. A modest cam, like the second to mildest hydraulic from the Lunati Voodoo or Comp Xtreme Energy lines. A quality ignition upgrade. Perfectly daily drivable, but a lot more fun on tap than stock.

There will be some swapping of incorrect engines in order to right the ship, so to speak. This one will be receiving a donor engine from an Arizona mustang, I haven't seen it and don't know the specs yet but it sounds healthy. 351w with an auto trans. This car will be going back to its original recipe, clutch peddle is going away (on this one). Something clever here.

Unless you're starting with a numbers matching original there are better ways to make 302 power than with the giant intake port heads. Particularly for a street driven car.

Super rough but it's all there and its not full of patches that hide the rust. What u see is what you get. So we've got that going for us, which is nice. Something clever here.

Redneck Campfire Kahuna R Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 59,177 Likes: 3 WI.	In '84 Ford brought out an edition of the GT350 and only shipped one per dealer.. IIRC, only TWO were ever automatics - one was shipped to Heritage Ford in Stillwater when I was there.. The dumbazz owner dealer-traded it to Tousley when they should have hung onto it and could have made a bundle. I stayed at that tramp ship for only 6 months before bailing.. Geez, what a pair of bozo owners.. Ex- USN (SS) '66-'69 Pro-Constitution. LET'S GO BRANDON!!!

Or else we'll "build it" as in "its built", and we'll say things like " three quarter cam" and we'll use words like "balanced and blueprinted" And we'll say "MSD" a lot and have no idea what it means... Then we'll have an episode where we will randomly blurt out "double pumpers!" And "three angle valve job!" I am looking at a very streetable 351 Winsdor based 427 for my car. It can be built to 460 CI (Dart block). Pretty amazing that they dyno at 500 HP at 5500 rpm, run at 500 ft-lbs torque from 2500 - 5000 rpm, have plenty of vacuum and run on 91 octane. Then we'll add up the horsepower on a calculator... "Carry the 4 barrel, multiply by long tube headers, 3/4, cubic inches... I'm getting 725 HP, does that sound right?" Lmao! It will be a healthy and reliable 351W. Conduct is the best proof of character.
