hi all, it's been a while as i've changed jobs and had to move from my workshop of 25+ years and condense everything into my home workshop. but the good news is the anglia's booked in for a rolling road session on the 20th of this month. i'll let you know the result. it'll be nice to run it without any misfires and see what it'll do. regards, neil.

i finally finished porting the intake and got the motor together this week with the new dizzy and coil and 750 dp carb. it revs much crisper now, just need to book it in at the rolling road for setting up.

« on: March 04, 2016, 05:59:57 PM »
hi all,
due to a change in circumstances i need to sell my anglia gasser. it has a 390/c6/9" combo. there is a full build thread here http://www.rodsnsods.co.uk/forum/garage/105e-estate-awb-gasser-64485 featured in both custom car and classic ford (uk magazines).
i know i'm in the uk but this may interest someone enough to ship it to the us.
i'm after £13,000 (uk sterling) so around $18,000.
just thought i'd offer it to you guys too.
thanks, neil.

on my old 66 fairlane i sectioned the towers 1 1/2" each side moving them outwards to give more clearance. the top 'a' arms had the same trim too as they bolt to the bottom of the tower. it was stock looking at a glance but header clearance was much better.

seeing those pics made me chuckle. i did the same on a low kerb on an industrial estate near me in a 66 fairlane gta i used to own. the hookers were quite old and it wrapped itself round the steering, not good.

Use some lubricant..hi jay, yes the new one slides in and out no problem and i agree a smear of anti sieze will go on it when it's final fitting time.
You will pick up some power with that Streetmaster modification.

started on the list of jobs this week. first the distributor change, what a performance that was. 2 hours later and it was out in lots of bits, boy was it stuck. once the top broke off i removed the inlet and ended up welding a large fwd driveshaft nut to the shaft so i could lever it out.
while the inlet (edelbrock streetmaster) was off i noticed the 'ears' were still there so i've made a start removing them and laying the runner dividers back to suit. 2 corners done, 2 to do. while it's off i'll port match it too, may as well make the most of what i have.

finally there's something to report. the new pertronix III distributor and coil arrived this morning. only ordered from summit on the 23rd and here in england on the 29th despite the christmas break. plus a $20 off your next order voucher too which will come in handy when i order the nitrous kit soon

happy christmas to you all and have a great new year.
i've ordered the new distributor and coil from summit and sorted a rolling road for the new year. just need to get the nitrous kit ordered in the next week or so then i'm ready for next season.
