Been awhile since I updated the website!  I have a few updates on my car.  It has an AOD now from Art Carr, as well as a 3.89:1 gearset mounted to a 4 pin Traction Lok.  I also took on a little side project that had me strapping a Paxton Novi 2000 supercharger to the 351C under my hood. Yeah... it's fast.  I also some rewiring, mainly in connection with the supercharger.

What's underway?  Well, I NEED a fold down rear seat.  Yes, I said need... who are you, my wife?! If I said I need it, I NEED IT!!  I have that started.  I am also putting down Dynamat and new carpeting in connection with that project.  I have a new Year One gauge panel that I am fitting with Autometer Sport Comp gauges.  I will be moving 2 of the 4 gauges mounted in the middle of my dash pad (specifically, oil pressure and water temperature) to the new console. There is a pillar gauge pod available for the 1970 these days.  I will check it out to mount my fuel pressure and boost gauges.

What is on the horizon?  Well, I hate carburetor tuning, so I will have to find a way to eliminate that.  I am not entirely sure what form that will take... or do I?  Only time will tell... muahahahahahaha!!
