Engine together

[Jimbo1965]

Finally have it back together.
It had a very loud and annoying whistle from the BBK throttle body, but did a little port blending to alleviate it; much online information regarding this.
Runs well, however, I think I am going to look into having it tuned; still running the stock H.O. computer.
Fuel pressure was not set

Engine sounds good! I see you have the required two post lift. Your back will thank you. So what's under the hood? Let's see it.

WEK.

An "in progress" pic, and one as it sits now.
This is about as far as I am going with the engine.

This is before I got my fuel pressure correctly set.
I apologize beforehand for the foul language used in the beginning!

Nice. It sounds like you have a good cam to match those AFR heads/rocker arms.

WEK.

The engine only had about 10,000 miles since it was rebuilt; I left the bottom end alone.
I put a Comp Cams double roller chain, Anderson Racing N41 cam, Ford Racing roller lifters & push rods and the AFR heads. Thought hard about a gear drive, but figured I would get sick of it after the novelty wore off.
Went with 1.6 Ford Racing rockers, Ford Racing 24# injectors, Pro-M 75MM M.A.F., and a BBK 70MM T/B.
I went with the Ford Racing Cobra intake (I know there are better performers available, but I was firm an wanting this).
Distributor is stock and so is the computer....thinking about getting it tuned this summer perhaps.
I also have a Walbro 190LPH pump I need to drop in the tank.
I am going to put a 6"x6" access door in the trunk so any future pump related operations will not require tank removal.

Sounds good Jimbo

Thanks for the compliments!
