I have a 1970 Ford LTD Country Squire Station Wagon which came with a 390 V8 2V. I replaced the engine with a 66 .040 over 428 block and 63 406 6V heads, 390 crank, 428 cast pistons, rebuilt rods, and then balanced. Block decked and align honed. The heads have been ported and polished some by a reliable performance shop. Hardened exhaust seats, SS valves, performance valve springs and retainers along with Crane Anti Pump up lifters and a set of MR 427 adjustables rocker arm assemblies. Blue printed Melling oil pump, CJ windage tray, CJ oil pan w/ 3/4" Canon oil pickup. FPP timing gear set. 66 428 PI intake w/a universal replacement 735CFM Holley 4150 carb. All this in front of my modified C6 and replacement 3:50 to 1 Detroit Tru Trac rearend. I'm running a Blue Racer Wolverine cam with a 554 lift I/E. Slower than some out of the hole but mid range to 6000++ in great. I've been working on getting at least 100MPH in the quarter. Times are another thing. This is alot of weight to get moving while still using all the creature comforts such as A/C, P/S,
P/B,et. The body is rust free and bondo free. Still has the factory white paint and woodgrain siding. The woodgrain and woodgrain trim is in need of restoration and will someday get finished. In the mean time I enjoy driving it to work and shopping. I will retire in the near future and look forward to traveling in the wagon around the US.
