Welcome back from Portland, OR.
Adventures in Bowl Blending GT40s Let me just say upfront, that this is the first set of heads I have ever taken a grindstone to. I have done...
Money pit, toy car, hobby, yard art.......yeah, it yields uh... mmmm.... well sometimes it yields words I shall not repeat here, but I like mine...
Tom, what was the compression ratio in that motor? I could not find a Ford summit cam, but I did compare the roller cams with identical duration...
I dont want any lugging, that is for sure. I looked briefly at summit and couldnt find that roller cam, but will look again tonight.
That is the other route I was debating, but I figured a cam change would need to be done and I didnt consider the 1.7 rocker possibility. I will...
I did say that. That XE262 cam is supposed to have a range of 1300-5600. It is the last one they say you can get away with using a stock...
This thread and those GT40 heads have been sitting for about 2 1/2 years. I finally took the valves out and did some "bowl blending" as per...
lol....Truth be told, my system has way too much slack in it. It is together enough that pieces wont fall down and drag, but it really doesnt work...
Here is some more.....but it is hard to decipher exactly what is going on; but has diagrams of potential components within the system? I didnt...

If you can get your money back out, I would sell it. To take care of the rust you describe, plus the rest of the rust you will find when it gets...
I bought a pair of junkyard gt40 heads about 2 years ago. I have read a bunch about bowl blending and such, so one got torn down and ground on. I...
Wow. That last pic is very telling of where things are heading when those little rust bubbles show up next to the gutter. I had no idea how these...
I am still looking forward to a first run. I did a lot of work on an estate property (7 weeks), and will get paid out of escrow.....so until then,...
Today I learned that a Comet hood from P&P will fit in a 1st gen xb. Will 4 door bucket seat tracks fit a 2dr? I assumed they would.....from a '74.
Its over? I vote for the 73 anyway!
Welcome back! Nice looking car too.
