fe powered 58 rambler american gasser
« on: January 17, 2026, 04:27:57 PM »
hi all, here's a link to the build so far and although i've chopped and changed the plans so far i've settled on another fe build for it. this time it'll have a 5 speed manual box, my 66 fairlane gta had a c6 with the 390 as did my ford anglia wagon gasser seen in my profile pic.
cheers, neil.

just a little update... i've ordered one of Jay's intake adapters so i can fit a tunnel ram to my motor. i mean a gasser with a single 4 barrel wouldn't be right would it? plus it'll draw the eye away from the AC compressor hung on the side (i'm getting old, what can i say).
neil.
ps Jay is very easy to deal with as expected, thanks.

Only 2 carburetors?
I hope that the a/c compressor is tucked WAAAY under.

wellll.... if a single 4 tunnel ram comes up cheap enough i may redo the top for 3x2's, only they'd be weber 38/38's. with a progressive linkage that only runs on the centre carb til 1/2 throttle then all 3 in by full throttle it should be ok. we'll see what comes up.
neil.
ps the AC compressor's a small sanden type so easy enouigh to tuck out of the way, lol.
