Welcome! It is nice to see someone using the I6 and trying to go fast. I applaude your efforts.
If you haven't already, check out the March issue of Car Craft with the Falcon running an I6 and a turbo. He hit 11.85 @ 110. Sweet looking car too.

Take it to the nearest strip to get some times so you can be even more proud of your accomplishments later on.

Did you build the engine with Fordsixparts to get the car started, or did you add them to the running engine as upgrades?

I remember driving my '66 200 in High School. I never ran the air cause it would make the car INSANELY slow. I also got a ricer fly-by from a Z24, but couldn't cath him when I tried .
But no one at school knew how slow it was, cause I could always break the rear end loose when leaving campus.

i rebuilt the motor with parts from FSPP all at once when i was 15 during christmas break last year and that was after only driving the car once before and it was also my first time ever driving a stick and it had the horrible unsynchroed 3spd tranny in it then but now it has a t-5 5spd
and no1 at school knows how slow my car is either mainly cause of the exhaust sound and the bigger tires out back and the fact that somtimes afterschool and after the cop leaves i do small burnouts in the parking lot for the fun of it

as for pics i dont know how to post any and i dont have any good ones but i know ben has a couple from som meets we did with TBM and maybe he can post som up
