This is my 69 Galaxie 500 LTD
Right now she has a 302, with an Edelbrock 600CFM carb, Performer intake,and cam. Headers & 2 1/2" dual exhaust.
I pulled the console out and put in a B&M Megashifter, the original shifter just had too much slop for me,
currently making a new console for it.
She's fun right now, but.......there's always a but.
I plan on converting to disk brakes all the way around. Already in the works is a 429 and C6. I am trying to figure out just how to beef up the suspension so it doesn't handle like a tank. That will happen shortly.
Anyone in the market for a relatively low mileage 320+hp 302?
Well I figured out the suspension. The answer was to replace all of the old sagging 37 year old springs. I also now have a 1 1/8" sway bar up front, and a 1" sway bar in the rear, all with urethane bushings, and KYB shocks. That took the body roll away. Now some sticky tires and she will be alot more controllable.
I bought a 1970 F-250 as a donor vehicle. That's where I got the 429 and C6, not the original engine in the truck. It does have a 9" rear end I would like to use, width looks about right
I need to convert it from 8 lug to 5 lug. Anyone know the best place to get the parts to make the conversion? I'm not sure if it is posi or not, so I figured I would get an entire third member with gears and the carrier so I can put 3.89:1 gears in it too.
