This is the start of my build up for the Falcon. Edelbrock Victor Ram with a pair of Holley 660 cfm's. The waiting for a set of AFR 210s and Ohio Crankshaft 406 SBC. More to come, thanks to Gasser John and Gasser Jeff for the stacks. The Slime is on the line!!!
now that you are going sbc you'll need more rear end gear to beat the 'A' the gaunlet is thrown ha ha >all you'll see is the trunk lid cartoon drawing l.o.l.
you know too much about the car?!?>thanks for all your help on the A!!!saw your post on the car show thread about bringing your uncompleted cars >hope green slime is there too<
better photo green slime >>>when theA was built backintheday i used 10,000RPM parts thats something you did not know...now if only my son didnot throw them away there maybe hope yet
NICE STUFF!!!! Best way to make a Ford fast, put a Chevy in it!!!! OK, I'm ducking all the shit that's going to fly already. Best of luck with the new power plant. that's a killer little Falcon you have there.
If you wanted it really fast, you should have stuck a Pontiac in it...hehehe...hopefully that SBC doesn't leave some slime of its own on the track...nice lookin car though, always loved those Falcons...
That's gonna be a fun car! Can I play? I'm putting a Mopar in my ford to go fast. How hard does that A run? How about the Slime? I'm figurin on low 11's Naturally Aspirated. and low 10s on the drugs. (if i can keep the car light enough- hey if i wear a girdle, is that like faux carbon fiber?)
Sure run it. What type Mopar are you going with? There was a guy I was sending pics and info to up north somewhere of my Falcon. He was building a Hemi for his Falcon.
I'm in Kansas City area. 415 inch smallblock,727,and 8 3/4 out of my 69 Plymouth. You've sent me some great shots of your build last year. Weren't we talking about the possibility of front and rear Speedglass/lexan? I gotta get rid of these doors, as well- they weigh a TON!
chevy in a ford to make it fast?? mopar? thats HILARIOUS!! this is my bosses comet that embarrassed a 16 car field full of big block mopars, big chevies and big (500 inches plus) fords to win the A/FX class at the 2009 Dragfest at famoso. and its just a little 360inch FORD smallblock on a 10.5 tire!! 10.003 @ 138mph
Great looking car, I'll bet there's a ton of money sitting there, with that injection set up. I was building a 351w for the car then found the history of it and she ran a sbc. So I switched over. I sold off most of my Ford stuff. I've seen that car up there at the "Patch" she looks great. The old "Green Slime" is still all steel. That Mopar sound like it's going to be a real mean gasser.
I'll see your photo&raise you a set of headers/timingcover&front motor mount....... are you interested in the extra headers we have?
what are those flairs off of...I'm building a 51' Chev business coupe Gasser and was thinking of doing something similar to the rear wheel wells
