Welcome to the CHR 72...
My father-in-law has a 77 Ford F-100, Stepside Shortbed, with a T-Bird 429 Modified engine in it...He's re-built the whole thing from the ground up, and it's a really nice truck.
Enjoy the site, and post some pics if you have them!

Welcome to CHR. I'm afraid I don't own a Ford P.U., or live anywhere near you, but I did stay in a Motel 6 one time, somewhere. Enjoy yourself here.

Hey lt1s10, you got a minor league baseball team in Lynchburg?
If you do, a former student of mine is the pitching coach.Just remember...dogs chase cars, but when they catch 'em, they can't drive.

I grew up in the '50's in Chicago and my life then was nothing but baseball...playing everyday and listening to the Cubs on my little transistor radio which hung on my Schwinn handlebars.im glade somebody is into something except cars. i read about the team but dont go i just do cars. i wish someone would tell me why.
Now that I live in Wisconsin for me it's mostly the PACKERS..... GO PACK.

Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
