Thanks 427 side oiler that Old school hp that won LeMans in 66 & 67 and Daytona in 67. Plus a whole bunch of NASCAR NHRA and other races in many different forms. I chose the tunnelport since they used them in the Torino in NASCAR

Some day.... some day.... getting closer. Yea I love the Bronco but its my wife's. Building it delayed working on the Torino but oh well what my baby wants she gets. I may paint it one day but if I make it too nice she won't use it.

You will. I'm building it to beat on it. It will be able to cruise on pump gas so it will see some street miles also. I plan on RTTC and open track days and eventually a silver state classic run. The internals on the motor are all quality stuff. From T&D rockers down to the Crower billet steel crank and rods no skimping on parts. The peak hp target is at 6200 so she should live long and be streetable.
