This is a great site...

And it probably doesn't get said enough, but thanks to Jay for hosting a great site for all FE fans (and even you guys that like the 'lesser' makes 8)), and for doing a great job as moderator.

It's the only forum I follow. When I had my Lightning pickup I would follow there because parts would pop up for cheap from time to time, but let me tell you, it was about 60% garbage talk on that site.

Best forum hands down. I haven't owned an FE in 40 years but the technical info and banter is the best.

This is a great forum, one of two that I check in on every day.  There isn't a lot of judgement here like other forums and no BS either.  I loved the thread about quench that went up this week, feel like I'm learning something useful...  Thanks Jay.  Barry, Brent and Blair as well!

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback.  Regarding a thumbs-up icon, unfortunately that is not available in this forum's software.  Sorry - Jay

People need to use this forum for enjoyment. Learn about great FE info in the tech sections, and use this area to get away from normal life, and some laughter. Rant somewhere else.

Hope all is going well with Jay’s new heads, and the Mule.

Mopar gear-heads make the best FE trunk monkeys. Everybody should have one.

+1 I love this site, from Jay's intake compraro to all the great tech info from the master engine builders sharing their engine "recipes", dyno results and on and on.  I have a 69 Mach 1 with a tired old 428SCJ that is about to get a new 445 stroker that I have built with all the great info on this site.  Hands down, best Ford tech out there, I visit the site every day!

I'll add my thanks to Jay, also. It is the BEST FE site!

FE's are the only big blocks that I have ever liked (they weren't even called FE's in my day). Even though I've only had two, a 352 & LR, they have always had a spot dear to my heart and are a excellent design.
