I would like to say hello to all the fellow Ford fanatics out there!
I also have a question. I know of a '73 Grand Marquis out there with a "N" code 429. Is this engine worth the trouble of salvaging or not? Hp figures I've seen on the net are 201 hp. Probably expensive for parts?

Also a '72 302 Torino 4 dr.

I own a '68 GT Torino with the 289 2V auto and am thinking of upgrading the engine.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

This is the New Member introduction area to introduce yourself to the forum. Unfortunately hardly anybody reads this area thinking people need help since this is an introduction area so this is why we have other forums for help with questions. Try posting there for more and much faster help!
