Thanks Shawn. I am waiting on the chopper right now to get out of here. In Suriname in south America right now. The gov down here opened up drilling and we got the first contract. Exploratory well right now.

I am slowly getting more done on my hot rods, and hope in the next 5 years I can start on the 26 Touring and 34 5 Window.

I think I have that exact air cleaner at the house. Pulled if off of a 63 Galaxie with 260 in the junk yard. It's still oil bath but plan on gutting it to make it a filter type. It has the right look incase I put it on my 52 ford.

That air cleaner is on a 67 Mustang with a straight 6. It is the original.

My first car is a 67 mustang with 200 six. It's a 302 now. Kept the top loader 3 speed.

[Shawn]

Once upon a time my brother owned a 66 coupe. 200 six with a 3 spd. We put a 250 six with a 4 spd in it.

I got a 250 six backed by top loader 3 speed and hurst shifter out of a 69 mustang in the shop waiting to be dropped into something. I just about dropped it into the 52, but shift linkage was going to be a pain/$. I have been eyeing a 60 to 63 falcon two door. It's a factory six with 3 on the tree. If I can save up enough I am going to snag it. I already have the radiator, engine/trans, drive shaft, v8 rearend, front disk brake spindles in the shop that fits.

If I did I was thinking about dropping a newer 200 six head on the 250, dura spark electronic ignition, cd box and then either putting a big 2v carb on it, or drilling out the log and welding on tabs so it can be tri carbed. I had the 200 six hot in my mustang at one time. It was strong enough to break u joints and after about a year of abuse the 7 1/4" rear end gave it up too. So I am sure the 50 extra cubes would be perfect for that light car.

I have been saving up and gathering info for a 300 six for build as well. With the right parts you can get right at 600 HP out of them.

So many combos, so little time.
