But that's only if you use a small base circle "retrofit" cam, correct?

Re: New Project for the Coupe

Hey Brian, I have a BRAND NEW pair of 351W heads for pedastal mount rockers here I'll make you a deal on . That way you don't have to worry about pulling one of those studs(and you will ) or redo them and add screw in studs...

But if you want to do that I also have a pair of '69 351W heads which is what the GT40's were patterned from.

Re: New Project for the Coupe

Damn the internals are nasty. Bet the oil wasn't changed very often.

I believe the timing chain is OEM too.

Check out the gap between the chain and the crank sproket:




Lee's timing chain stretch has nothing on this one. . .
