wasn't a mustang guy! so yeah, i good deal it was. did have to go through the motor though. was rust in the cyls, looks like the intake was left off at one time?

heard something like that? not sure how much of a collector car it is now with all the add ons!

i'm making 1500+ on a 540 with a f2 procharger now! all in a 68 camaro at 3796# and running 8.40s. fully streetable and run pump gas.

the main reason for the car change is the weight and aerodynamics, should be good for a nice low 7 run!
