Hi and welcome to the site. Sounds like an interesting project that you have there. The big race will be at National Trails Raceway in Columbus OH labor day weekend, other than that test and tune at Montgomery Motorsports Park. There is a deal in the works to run 6 to 8 nostalgia races in GA, FL, AL, and MS. I'll have more details on that later, but it's looking pretty promising right now.

I talked with Ted yesterday, the engine is coming along nicely. He thinks we should be making smoke in a couple of weeks. I have given him a free hand within my budget, and from what he has told me, I am stoked! I can't wait too see the results on the dyno.  Still looking for a intake if anyone has a Mummert that they will part with, let me know.

Hey Glen

Maybe this will work for an intake?

That would look WILD with 6 of these Scott 97 tops...

Sorry guys but I don't want to go through the problems of tuning these old setups. They look cool but one of Ted's worked over 750 Holleys will out perform any of those old systems and make life a whole lot easier. The only thing that might make me change my mind would be one of RB's injector systems, now that would look good on the Falcon. John will have some more intakes soon, so I'll just wait until he has some more unless one turns up.

Bill if it runs fast enough to need a parachuite, someone else will be driving it!

Good call Glen,  although Elwood looks pretty cool with three 94s I did a little run down the local country airport runway this weekend with the Demon 750 and Blue thunder ment for the Uni and it makes a world of difference.  Idles too, with no sticking floats.
