Well Doc, I'm hoping that I have zero issues onece I receive it, both mechanically and registration. We will be in Carlisle 2012 as Travis has already invited us to bring it to display with your car and Frank's.
Too much HP? I know how much you love the sound of your car (who wouldn't?) so I can only imagine that you are downsizing the carb? Mine will have 435hp and I am convinced it is plenty for me to drive it comfortably. I did see Engine factory has a ford 363 stroker that sounds way too cool.
If I have any issues or concerns I will contact you for more info. Thanks!
