Bringing the 66 back to life
I decided it was time for some up-grades for my 66 like a few more horses under the hood. Nothing real drastic so I pulled the motor, I had a 2400 stall converter made up from EDGE Racing Converters, found a 66/67 CAP 4 bbl intake, installed a double roller timing set, and added a Holly 600 cfm 4776S carb. That plus the new 8 3/4 rear end with 3:55 gears and a sure grip should wake this fish up a little bit. Brought home the motor today, still need to freshen up the paint and then if I can get a day at least in the 40's weather wise I will drop it back in. I am looking forward to a little drive to see how it will preform now.
