I hear that Roger - this engine is everything I enjoy and easy (relatively speaking) to work on. The vehicle is lifted and has over-sized tires so I need a stool to reach some of the stuff on the rear of the engine and I really appreciate Ford putting the distributor in the front of the engine!

It feels really good to find someone who enjoys cars and wants to learn. Us "old guys" that still remember carbs and timing lights are getting fewer and further between. It's really amazing how quickly I can find myself remembering little things like timing spec's and low idle screw adjustment procedures. I'm thinking there will be a lot of hot rods in heaven 'cause working on them makes me feel like I'm there! And I've known for years that God rides a Harley!
