Hello all,
 My name is Nathan Reed and I am located in central KY. I am working on a 1964 Galaxie. So far I have added a 428 Cobra Jet and a top loader 4speed. It has a P.I. intake, 735cfm CJ Holley and FPA tri-y headers. I am going through the mechanicals first then I hope to start on interior. Long road ahead! 
Anyway, love the site and enjoy all things FE!

Hello,
           Mark Pacey from Ipswich Qld Australia ,i am a mechanic by trade but i have spent the last 30 years working in Open Cut  coal mining.My first Ford was a 1969 XW Falcon GTHO Candy Apple red with a tan interior a great car should never had sold it . After raising a family i was able to buy a 67 390 GT Mustang 4 speed Fastback . This car has had a hard life and i am sure it could tell a few stories especially the 3 bullet holes through the rear floor . . After 10 years it is slowly being close to being finished Silver in colour i have fitted a TKO 600 a Total control rear suspension and a 4.125 stroker kit through Barry R is being built .The engine will run a Tri Power fuel injection system built by F&B throttle bodies with a FAST xfi .Hope to have it on the road before December .I am quite lucky as the local Drag strip and Circuit race track are only a short drive from home so looking foward to driving the mustang .Great forum keep up the great work guys .

Welcome, EFI FEs are always welcome

[ToddK]

Welcome Mark, good to have another Aussie here. Plenty of good info and helpful people on this forum. You'll have to post some pics of your car when you get a chance, sounds interesting with the tripower efi set up.

Mark,
Chased you down through your post!  Your intake arrived and is currently under the knife!  Heres a preview pic of the un-welded intake.

OOPs forgot to introduce myself!
BKBridges from SanDiego CA.  Currently working on my wifes 68 Cougar (and Marks EFI intake system).  Not sure where the build is going or what will be replacing the 2bbl 302 under the hood just yet.  Looking for a build that will keep my wifes Autocross skills honed.  Getting into the FE motors more and more these days so Im thinking that is the way we will build it.  (sorry about the tiny pictures)...

Been posting here a bit but somehow missed this thread.

Sooo.. Howdy all! My name is Scott and I'm in Mountain View CA. My ride is a 67 Fairlane GTA, 390FE, C6.

Had it 16 years or so and if you've scanned the tech thread recently you'll see me hounding the regulars for advise. Great group here. Thanks to all in advance for the tech tips and your patience.

Cheers all!!

Just joined and wanted to say that I've learned alot from the FEForum and Jay's book as well as Barry R's book.
I bought my first FE powered PU in 1967 (1965 model) and have had 3  Ford PU's since. But currently a 4th with a 460.
My local buddy's and I built 2 1956 fords in the late 60's with 427 side oilers and econoline axles for Woodward Ave. "excursions" and had a great and profitable time.
 
I still have my 1965 Comet HT I bought new in Rochester Mi and put away in 1972. (56,000 miles) but never saw snow. 
Now my projects are my: -1948 Lincoln Ford 390 3X2 --  a 3spd toploader and a mild 9" rear with 4 bar. ( my Avatar)
                                      -1931 Model A Roadster  416 FE and a Latham supercharger 1957 9" rear  spool wuith a 4.10 gear 4Spd Od toploader
                                      - the afore mentioned 1965 Comet I-beam axle 9" rear and some version of an FE
                                      - Finally I bought a 1960 Vette in 1977 for $2400 as a basket case and now have all the parts (except the Prison Break kit) to assemble it as a dropped I beam
                                       445 CI FE Toploader , Edelbrock 6X2 intake with Stromberg WW's, 9" out of a 1976 Bronco with a Detroit Locker. 
                                       Oh and a 1959 BMW Isetta that's been barn stored since 1959 --- blown engine.

I check the FEForum and FE Power a few times each day (retired and moved to Oregon in 2003) and also HAMB.

Thanks for looking   Richard >>> FERoadster

Nice toys, Richard, welcome!

I want to see the FE installed in Richard's Corvette; that would be pretty cool...

[BruceS]

Hi Y'all,
I'm Bruce Selby, born 1949 in Long Beach, CA.  I'm a mechanical engineer working in the petroleum industry.  I've been driving and working on FEs almost my whole life.  I saw the first one under the hood of my Mom's 58 T-Bird.  Since then I've owned a 61 Starliner 352 with 3 on the floor, a 63 Galaxie fastback with a P-Code 390, 67 F100 with 352, and a 67 Mustang GT 390 4-speed (13.8 @ 103 at Orange County Raceway).  I'm currently completing an overseas assignment at which time another FE project will get underway!  I'm thinking of another 61 Starliner... lots of FE possibilities there!  Anyone have ideas for it?
Btw, the picture has my current pride and joy, a 66 Fairlane 500 I found locally.  It was rough but all original and now has a coat of mystic blue metallic paint and a torquey 347 stroker small-block.
Really enjoying the forum, as well as Jay's and Barry's books.  You guys are really pushing the FE envelope!  looking forward to learning and contributing. 

[amdscooter]

^^^ Nice ride Bruce! After just installing headers I'm really starting to envy guys with the torquey small blocks.
