Nice.How much better do the edlebrocks flow? Just starting out with this so I don't really have a game plan yet.

And the horsepower war has officially been declared! I think I saw a spare turbo around here somewhere...

Ready to pull it out. Possibly thursday I'll pull it and get it on the stand.

Digging that aluminum foil on the fuel line.

It helped. It's a sleeve. Along with the carb spacer and rerouting the fuel lines.

I have started the mockup of the hydroboost and bracket. I plan to make the brake lines and get everything ready then remove it all until the engine is back in. With this offset bracket it sure is long.






Also started the tear down of the engine. I think I got pretty lucky. Doesnt look like the piston is hurt. there is a mark on it from the valve but doesnt looked cracked. So i'll clean the carbon off and on some new heads.

I couldn't help but mock some things up. Will be sand blasting the brackets to give a nice finish. Will Paint the upper also.

Was very surprised today. I pulled the interior and carpet. I found a lot less rust than I expected. Looks like a small patch is required at the seat bolt holes on the passenger side. and maybe a full drivers pan since it's been patched once.

How in gods name has that horn ring stayed intact for all of these years?

Rob prefers to use his middle digit for signaling his fury.

Spent the day in the garage. Got the 1" body lift installed. Also built new brake lines from the master to distribution block. don't like how one turned out so I'll be redoing that one. Started moving the arb compressor over to the drivers side inner fender.

I need to hit a junk yard for an ecu box so I can get that cut in while the engine is out.

Trans kit should be here soon so I can start on that.

trans kit showed up. Has a new roller clutch in the kit. Will possibly sell the shift correction kit and get a sure cure kit.

The original body bushings had seen better days.



Going to be a tight fit with everything crammed under hood again.




Hey Garry you ready to build some adaptors? Looks like it would fit awesome.

is that a compressor next to the hydroboost? can you move it? maybe under the bronco?

You realize this is no longer optional, right?

....is coming to my house?

Wonder if I could get that piped into my 400

Still gathering parts. I ordered the new reverse drum and mechanical diode and sure cure kit for the 4r70w. Also ordered the 98 n up case connector. Once those arrive I can finally make some progress and get this trans rebuilt.
