Well Bean, kinda worried about you & this FoMoCo thing that you are embarking on. I think that maybe you should at least put a Buwak motor in da B-Bird or something GM. Quitting GM's cold turkey can lead to some serious withdrawal symptoms!!! ;D

its possible but I'm all about the challenge and it seems that the BBF is a real good foundation, just gotta find a good set of heads for the think, If you run across a set of BBF heads give me a call, what I'm looking for is a set of used aluminum cobra jets, people are going to the Kaase P-51 heads and selling there old heads so that's what I'm looking for.

Don't know many people who run BBF, but I'll ask around.

the 55 got a glide and 10" nos converter .she is gettin a complete rewire job .stainless headers and 3"x pipe i got a real preaty qft e85 carb i gotta fix for her . i had it on the shelby last season and i had to put a 50cc pump and a 50 squirter to get it right .think there is a restriction some where as the pump spring pushes the pump way after the throttle goes full. were looking at 11.50 index and superstreet class for the 55 .
these dang fomoco thingys are just wrong found out the shelby trans has a short gearset in it. thus the lack of 60 ft. so i built a 850 annular e85 demon for it and putting the stock gear in it . hope to get it to 10.20/40's for janet and use the trans brake this year .
brother 4dr is shaping up to be a real handfull .the plan is to number one qual in s/s and steel the bye run and run it in 8.50 index . that way we can get 3 passes and build a data base for the boost timer /et ratio
still waiting on cam ...argh from crane for the blazer . with the weight brakes we should get that in the 8.50 index easy .... we seem to think everything will show up march 28th and give use 6 sleepless night
