Planning Ahead. Need Advice on Next Rod to Build!

Mercury · 07-04-2001, 01:07 AM

My FE parts include Several Intakes, both two barrel and 4 barrel. Heads, I'm not sure what kind they are, Hi-Po, or just regular. Guess I could drag them out of storage and take a look. I've been meaning to.

The heads have some large ports and valves, Larger than the other 390's I've seen, with the exception of my Friends 67 Fairlanes 390. I'm going to have to check.

PG KELLY...Are you saying I'm a dork man?

I'm not the sleeper kinda guy, hey I love RED, that should of gave that away.

I'm looking to do something from teh late 50's early to mid 60's. Something diffrent.

69 FastBack...I like the 64 styling better also, but I think the Innocent look of the pre 64 Falcons would make it diffrent. I've never seen any pre 64 built up Falcons. I'm still debating on the Falcon, or Comet, or 64/65 Fairlane (If I did a Fairlane, it would have to be a ThunderBolt like car...FE..)

I guess it will come down to what ever I can find for the best price, in teh best shape.
