Many years ago (around '78) a girlfriend asked if I might be interested in her friend's car as she wanted to get something that ran better and...
Santa Rosa was pretty good as usual- picked up a few things, including a nice set of polished Blue Thunder pentroof valve covers that already had...
This is my ALGON setup, the "easy" way with Enderle barrel and generic Hilborn- type nozzles- and the rare ALGON front cover/drive. The original...
Roy, ALGON setups are out there, I have a nice setup, and my buddy had a couple, one low/med rise that he sold recently for $1800, and a nice HR...
If it's got a little Chebbie in it, they won't hear it anyway :D Got a fixit on the 427 in my 406 Galaxie in the late 70's, when it had the 14:1...
What you probably have is the old medium-case Cruiseomatic, which is actually a pretty good trans, and the later FMX is basically the same- if it...
You also have to be careful about the port location too- the later heads like C8AE's and D2TE's have the ports lower in the head, so even if they...

I saw the Plymouth raffle car from last year going up Hwy80 around Vacaville a couple weeks ago- still running :p
Best one I've seen, there used to be an early 80's Currvette that ran at Sears Point a lot, small slicks, ran consistant 10.50's like a slot car,...
Got this one from the original owners about a month ago- original paint, driveline, hubcaps, radio block-off plate still in the dash [IMG] [IMG]
X2-been there done that :rolleyes:. Let me add, DON'T let the wimmins get "involved"- :eek:- especially as "officers"- you ain't never seen drama,...
Nope, only the good stuff- that's a pretty rare crank. Bobby's eyes got pretty big when I showed it to him :eek:
You must not have been inside the engine yet, or need to look closer- and Medium Risers, Tunnel Ports (and SOHCs) etc. usually got the C5 steel...
And I supplied the "correct" engine parts to put it right- CO block, 13/32 rods, and C4AE "7000 RPM Kit" steel crank ;)
