        Nice trophy, and its a reson to upgrade.

        Are you eventually planning on putting your KB in/on this car? If so, you may consider running less gear.

          I had pondered it (and mocked it up obviously) but I'm happy with the power levels in this car. Although I may end up running TF intakes.

          The KB will most likely end up in the 87 CP as it is currently engineless. I had planned to do a DOHC 4.6 in it, but that will probably end up in my Tudor (way down the road....)

            Sounds good.

            Typically, running a little less gear will help with engine load, which helps with building boost.

            What pistons do you have in this engine?

              Just the typical Speed Pro hypereutectic HO style replacements. Another reason I want this car to stay N/A. I hadn't planned on putting the TFS heads on this engine originally, but you know how plans change....

                I did something odd today and worked on this car.

                I was sick of the seats from the 88 P72 kicking around, so I swapped them into this. For the first time in a long time the car has a complete matching interior. It even has rear seat belts again! I like the Bronco II buckets much better, but I need to redo them.
                The police buckets are a bit faded, but what do you want for free?

                  Looking good. I also like the gauge pod, that is under the ash tray.

                      That is how you're supposed to jack it.

                          The sport box thread is where everything will be. A fresh start for this car.

                          IIRC I bought them through auto anything. I have one in my 85 as well, there made by Dash Designs and seem of good quality and fit.
