All the credit to 6t8-390gt (forum member). He did all the work. All I did was pay for it. He did a fantastic job. Going down to Maryland in May to pick it up and bring it home (to NH).

The engine is a period correct '68 J-code 302 (out of a Cougar). Engine was purchased complete, including the original C4 transmission. The engine was rebuilt by my cousin (Danny) with assistance from a friend. Essentially stock rebuild with a mild performance cam and roller rockers. Retaining the Autolite 4300 carburetor, factory exhaust manifolds, cast iron intake manifold, rebuilt stock distributor with Pertronix module, correct dual exhaust system with GT tips. It's installed in the car already and running very nicely. Thanks for the compliments.
