Better Performance

ok first you have an inline six, NOT a V6. you can install a carter YF carb to improve air flow into the engine. a set of headers will help alot in removing spent gases. advance your timing untill the engine pings under load with the fuel you are using, then back off until the pinging stops. you can install stiffer rear gears, a 3.50 gear for a six is a good compromise for the street. you can install a T5 trans as well, more gears + overdrive. add a decent cam, mike at www.classicinlines.com has a number of good cams that would work. check out this link

for the street any of the first four cams listed will work just fine for performance, and still give you decent fuel economy.

you can also add and aussie 250 2v head, or if you have the money you can add mikes new aluminum head for the six. either way there is power there. dont be afraid to check out the forums at www.fordsix.com as the guys over there will be more than happy to help you get more power from your six.
