I have to admit, I have thought about it in mine with a pair of turbos, but the darn 489 just doesn't want to come out :)

A long time ago I reached the conclusion that chebbie guys have no soul. You rarely see Ford, MoPar or BOP guys do that sort of thing.

My new term for these types. I want a bumper sticker that says that. Only LoSer types will understand it.

Somebody needs to put a supercharged Coyote in a 67 Camaro and parade that around.

Just gotta say, its the Camaro hood geegaws that are truly appalling. Cripes, I always thought those were ugly as hell on Camaros, why would you put them on something else?

Ford want-a-bees who are afraid to build a real engine, and don't want to offend their chevy buddies.  They think it is OK to cut up a Ford, because it saves a Chevy for someone to restore.  Scared to be different enough to actually build a read Ford and make it work.  Joe-JDC

My I present you with a Ford revenge to the boetie crowd;

I know it's not a FE, but is is FORD Powered.

I understand the guy who built this one has sold it and is building another, but better, faster and is going to piss off more of the Boetie crowd.

Friends used to go to big Mustang show at Charlotte.  Apparently there was a brave soul that had a 60's camaro with a 351 in it.  He actually won 1/2 an award(since it only was 1/2 a Ford).

well, you don't have to run a Ford Engine in NHRA Pro Stock Ford Cars,  since they have regulated that only GM Products can win, so Pro Stock has gotten so boring, it is not run at all NHRA events anymore

Yeah, I posted awhile ago the shocking engine swap news. But, I didn't know they stopped running the class at all events. Any links to when/where NHRA decided to f-up their own game once again?

Man, what a bunch of knuckleheads!

And I thought he was going to announce that one of his many project cars was now running. Guess I'll have to wait awhile longer for that surprise.

Yes, I am still struggling with that. Getting closer I think.

I've seen the Heretic 56 Chev several times, he's sort of local. There were two Ford powered Chevrolets at Hot August Nights (a 460 in a mid 50's Chev pickup and a 351C in a 32 Chev) and two more at Drag Week, (Boss 429 Nova and 55 gasser with a 460 style)

Its a big deal around here some real good cars are being cut up a dumb ass took the 302 out of a numbers matching z28 sold it so he could have a ls.On the bright side the ls is a copy of a ford if it did not have the ugly coils it would be hard to tell it from a ford.
