LOL. Funny old man story to tell one day while sitting on the rocker on the nursing home porch. LOL. "He little whipper snapper...did Grampa ever tell you the wild hood story......." LOL.

The ONLY things planned under the hood any time soon (til I get the heads) are cleaning, and swapping struts. That's it.

I would put a minty Cobra upper on the car if I can find one. Then the GT-40 would be mounted to a board and used for making my intake plates.

I've got a Cobra intake. I'd trade it for a ported Explorer upper...

I have no explorer intakes. No big deal, My GT-40 is doing well.I'm applying my time to finishing the cs I have now, after the interior is together, the exterior stuff and trunk, then engine bay, subframe connectors, and go from there.

I also need to focus on finishing the resto on my tail lights. and getting the new sequential kit installed. A lot to do.
