One thing i forgot-Horsebarns have no floors.Dirt hangs on to moisture.Get underneath the car before you say a single word about price.And also remember,every single hose is going to have to be replaced wether or not it's dry rotted.Seals will be dry.

All things being equal(no other issues) after the body & non-running issues,$2000.00 tops.And if you're going to buy it,it would be a really,REALLY good idea if he DIDN'T try to start it.He thinks it will be like starting some old GM product with a carb.BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!

The only issue is the TO bearing collar MIGHT be 2+2 specific.I know there is a difference between the car collars and the truck ones.The TO bearing collar MUST match the PP.

Not true. Four sound better.And they are coming to a town near you. http://www.collingsfoundation.org/menu.htm- Hot Roddin' the Z
On a stock engine,FI is superior to carbs-period.When you start using bigger cams,issues can arise and SU's or Sidedraft Webers/Mikunis are the ticket.With a FSM,there are no factory FI issues that can't easily be resolved.- Hot Roddin' the Z
Holleys and DGV Wbers have no business being on a L motor.- flattop carbs rebuilt or new dgv's
A carb/manifold situation where the fuel mixture makes 90 degree turns,is always the last choice.- Too Intense Restoration trustworthy?
I never did business with Too Intense.Thats because he couldn't find the time to return calls/e-mails.- Eco Boost f150
Typical Detroit:Come up with a good idea and then slaughter it.:stupid:- Eco Boost f150
I've heard nothing but stellar reports on the Eco-boost stuff.Ford's pissing in GM's Wheaties again.- 280z 2 core, or 240z 3 core radiator?
3 core.No such thing as "problems" getting air thru a radiator.- Blonde Joke:
Why do brunettes like their hair so much? Because it matches their mustache.- Ceramic coat stock manifold?
- Gauge Lights not working
http://www.superbrightleds.com/ I replaced my dash lights with LEDs.The factory bulbs draw 3.4 watts.The LED replacements draw .27!And are brighter.- Five speed vs three speed
As somebody else mentioned,it is not just a matter of tossing in the box with the biggest OD drop.Everything here is an equation.If your cruising RPMs drop below the rpm where your advance is fully in,that will hurt MPGs as much as without the OD.- Blonde Joke:
Equal time* Why was the blonde's belly button bruised? Her husband was blonde too. Brunettes are next. - Went to the Lone Star Air Museum today with the 350Z guys
