This would be a question for Rusty that goes back to when he first acquired the Fairlane. Do you know if the car was originally Burgandy/Maroon with a red interior? Just curious.

If you go back to the first page, about 3 pictures down, it is indeed Maroon with a red interior. Looks like original paint in that picture also.

You would never guess this sleeper has twin turbos.

That is officially the first real performance turbo FE I've seen, other than trailer queen "show cars" or stockers with modest performance. Looks like there's still some more work to do? Can't wait to hear back about some performance ventures. What are your aims with this, Rusty? It sure has morphed from its original plans!

I wish I still owned it!!

Russ plans on having a street legal race. The engine was in his Mustang and he had planned on going on the Hot Rod Power Tour until he wrecked it.

I really want to run drag week   The 520 ci Blair Patrick FE made well into the 600’s on HP and Tq without the turbos   So this should be as Blair says interesting
Really going to limit boost to 15 lbs max   Hope to have the car back home this week

A little Teaser Video, Still working on the tune, this is 2 gears and 3 lbs of boost. As you can tell it didn't hook     but Im glad I have a motor plate it really moves the car around.

I wonder if you have a chassis brace (or 2) from the motor plate to the chassis?
