Crap I forgot about that...

Reason being is I called my Local Ford Dealer about GT40 P heads and they said $860 a piece...

So that's why I forgot to call Parkway

Dayum it I coulda saved a little money too

car will put down excellent numbers...my guess is 270 wheel power if you can get her running decent...320 fly wheel is my guess. Either way the car will be gangbusters better.
