    1968 Autorama bound...

    Thanks Rob! The list # is 6221-2 3358. Indeed, we do have a 4 barrel and dual flowmasters planned for TJ, but he has to earn the $$ himself for the exhaust system. In the meantime, the 2100 is seeping/ flooding after shutdown resulting in smoky starts when hot. There is hesitation too that...

    Rob, TJ's car is running excellent, but we're leaving it 2-barrel until Spring. I have a rebuilt Holley (2v) to replace it's tired Autolite 2100, but am missing the plastic disc (bolted to linkage) that actuates the accelerator pump. Are they easy to find?

    . Tested the Limits of Ford's 302 Block, lets just say its no Chevy 350

    Wow David! Great story and photos! What's most impressive to me is the engineering, calculation and thought that you apply to maximizing destruction of a small block in addition to your 11-sec quarter-mile. I mean that in an admiring (push the envelope (wide open)) sort of way. I watch the...

    What do you drive in the winter?

    All of mine are driven and maintained year-round with the 1970 Mach being more or less primary (without classic car insurance restrictions). a 2001 Dodge Dakota stands ready for snow service.
