Like the idea of using screen. It gives the veiwers some place to sit down their drink and corn dog as they slobber all over the engine...

LOL!

Its been a while since I've been on but I have been keeping tabs on what you are doing and it is looking really good. I'm doing a similar thing, short version 1965 Falcon Wagon 77 granada 302 c6 and 9 inch all in already. But I have seemed to misplaced the distributer that I took off of the 302 and am in the market for a new one but I do not know what they mean by cast iron gear or advances so I could get one yet. How do I find out what kind of distributer I need to get without dismantling the engine?

How deep is the water Peps? Don't know what section of Houston is being shown on the national TV news but it appears that the city has become a swimming pool.

Quick question. Does 1966 motor mounts from a mustang V8 work on a 1962 ford falcon. I was wondering because those motor mounts are cheaper than the motor mounts from 63-65 falcon-mustangs.

I've got a '66 Stang with what I suspect is a Granada rear-end. Do you know how I can be sure? It has close to 3" axle tubes and the spring pads are 3" wide. There is no tag on the diff.

Default great job
I just picked up a 65 w/302 C-4. I"m going to make a daily driver out of it. You ride looks great and thanks for all the awesome info.

I'll be stealing more than a few of your ideas.

Cheers,

Dan
