thats enough of a reason for me to go to ebay and grab one!

my 66 at work and a couple car shows last year

my daughter and I have piles of the A100's. started off as a hey that's neat I will grab one. now its every time either of us is at a Walmart we look for these damn things..........

I have 235/45r17's on my 66 pretty sure I could sneak a 245 on it.

RustyRatRod , we think alike 60-61 Starliners are Bad *** looking cars.

if the engine is to high in the front, it sounds like they mounted them to high. mine sat the same as it did on the factory mounts.

I would pull my engine and leave the trans. had a couple Long bolts that I cut the heads off and would thread into the block through the water pump housing. then pull the rest and housing and let the engine rest on those two studs one the hoist was starting to lift the engine. I could slide the...

block was cracked before boost was added. I missed it when the block was cleaned and milled ( should have saw it ) think it froze at some point. I have multiport fuel injection on it. i knew I could control each cylinders injector that way. it has a cam, probably more duration than ideal but it...

yup, I second RRR ! also find it awesome your trying to rehome it for free

I will say 5-7psi really wakes a slant up! I will also say so far mine has had No issues with that level and more ( on a fairly safe tune ). Even with .120 off the block, Stock pistons with some new rings and bearings. I wanted to put it together on the cheap before spending the money on fancy...

I had the 4bbl Aussie Hurricane. while I agree it helps with distribution in my opinion it was smarter to go with multiport. the cost of having a old Offy intake I picked up cheap was not that bad. I also wanted the extra room for the turbo that the Aussie intake was using.

I had the Aussie intake with a carb, then a FiTech TBI set up. wish I would have never wasted my time with the FiTech on the slant. Should have followed my gut and just took the plunge right away. I honestly could not believe the difference had I not seen it myself. even on initial start up...

i have a 64-65 Radiator in my 66 because champion has a smaller hose connection on their 66 slant radiator for some reason. i made a filler panel on the passenger side to bolt it in. yet had no issues with the 65 v8 radiator when i had that in the car.

I agree, unless we are talking extreme situations. found an old case of 10w40 in the corner of the garage ( probably there over 15 years ) . at the bottom of the bottles is a caramel colored sludge. might be able to get it resuspended if I put it in a paint shaker when it was warm.

hope they turn it up when it gets in a car. those guys over at Gill Welding are good guys. always helped me with my silly questions when I was wiring up my turbo slant.
