Dudes,
Been gone for a bit! Supply train issues for my new bullet for the 67 Fastback. Well, she is finally in my garage. I have been around many an FE and had a 69 Cobra Jet in the Mustang as well as one in my 1957 2 door Del Rio Wagon. This is my last big HP build for our car. YES, THE LAST!! So, for this endeavor I turned to an FE specialist! FE Specialties in Chiloquin Oregon. Tom Lucas is the owner builder. He specializes in FE building and FE porting.

If you go to his Facebook page you will see an early pull on the dyno. And if you page down to December 17th you will see the test stand run! This beast made 759 HP at 7,000 RPM! You need to hear the idle on the test stand. She is "ROWDY" for sure. Just what Rob wanted.
Here are some specs.
Big Bore, 4.375” Shelby Block
511 Cubic Inches
Scat 4340 4.250 Stroker kit
Shelby Next Generation Cylinder Heads
Major reworking on these!!
12.5 to 1 compression
T&D Plate style Rocker Assemblies Some offset
Manley 7/16” pushrods
Custom Solid Roller Cam: 260’s, 270’s .050
BBM Tunnelwedge Intake Port Matched
Two Old School Custom Holley 660’s carbs with Center Squirters
I have a Water Methanol system with plates to go under each carb. This will allow me to run it on pump gas! It will be a very careful dial in to ensure there is zero detonation. I ran this system on my GT/CS with the Weiand blower on it. Worked great. Check out the Facebook page! If you have a "S" code GT/CS and want some more poop, I would highly recommend Tom!!
Rob
