Hi, SHPBLING here, been building modified Fords since 1973. First build, 1964 Fairlane. 289 Cobra Jet, Holley 750 duel feed double pumper, solid lifters, 4 speed w/Muncie crash gears, line lock. tubbed, two speed posi rear end I got off a wrecker. Ran 120 octane through it. Took 3yrs to build, broke it out after high school graduation........It was worth the wait!

 

Hi i'm odey. I like to rebirth old clunkers. Am looking for way/site to find "on body/ frame vin locations from 1960 and up, today 1968. Any one? thx.

 

There is conflicting info about the real 460 and run of the mill engine. I have been trying to get accurate opinion on whether a 429 timing gear and chain will do anything for a 1987 460 re: fuel mileage, power or propane conversion?

 

looking for info whether a 429 timing chain and gear will do anything for a stock 1987 460 regarding economy,power and propane conversion?

thx.
