It's like Christmas over here.

I was out of town for a few weeks. I knew I had most of the motor comming in so it has been killing me but here it is. I got a few pictures.

I will need a ton of help from this point on. I just don't know a ton about race motors or Fords for that matter.

I may not use this manifold just got it pretty cheap. I also got my CC A460 bare block, rods, crank, bearings, valves, cam, and a few small things. Hell of a start though!!

some nice looking stuff for sure! what are the intentions and size motor you are building?

Nice build,just don't leave it all in the bedroom and look/talk about it forever. Should'nt have any trouble running 20's in the right chassis. Keep us informed.
