Pics of my 351 windsor.

I'm looking for an inexpensive engine test stand to break in my engine. If anyone has a used one, let me know.

Also looking for a Factory Five Cobra I can sit in to make sure I fit. I am 6'5".

Thanks!

Keep in mind not all builds are the same. So what you experience in one may not be optimal for you. Big difference in seats, plus how they're located and height. Some adjustments are possible with the pedals. Minor sheet metal mods in the footboxes can get you a little extra space. It all adds up. You might want to also think about a removable steering wheel. People your size (and bigger) are able to make them work.

Sorry forgot to include where I'm at. Cleveland, OH.

I purchased an engine break in stand so that I can properly break in my 351 Windsor. This is y first time at everything so I need to take my time.
