    Don thanks for the info! It's nice when someone like you paves the way for others with like ideas. I miss my 289/302 mustang, and hope one day to build a new one. I feel the same way about my 460 venture. Hard to find Ford parts to go with modified setups! I guess the journey makes the end all the more sweet!

    I guess so Steve, but man are Chevys a lot easier to play with! Ford loves to change things just for the sake of changing them and you are never sure what parts are going to work with other parts. When I was helping Don figure out the pulleys on his T bucket we kept air freighting different ones in because no one at Summit, Jegs or March could tell us exactly what would work, it was all trial and error. Then there is that 28 oz and 50 oz imbalance thing and 157 vs 164 tooth flywheels.

    Could be worse I guess, I could be playing with Hemis.
