It's done. Just need to give it a bath and prime it and then I can paint it.

Only in a boosted application. Unless that's a half ass home made version, most of those are made of serious wood...similar to what skateboards and water skis are made off...they're more or less waterproof and are excellent at insulating heat from getting to the carb.

The wooden space is made for this. I didn't make it. It should make 730+hp. It's going to do big wheelies. It's 487ci 13.6:1 compression. .740 lift 276in 284ex duration @.050. Port O Sonic intake 1050 Holley Dominator.

I know the guy in the Red Falcon Roger well I don't know him but I've seen him on FordFE.com. My motor should be around 730+hp. I'm just guessing. But 9.50@140 is what I'm looking for. My Falcon is a pig 3200lbs

I'm not sure I'm just hoping for 9.50's but I think the 1/8 mile should be arond 6.20's@110. I'll be happy if the car goes 9.70's. I just have to wait and see what happen's
