Why the hell does everybody paint the wiend stealth manifold blue:mad: I painted mine silver to match my truck when I had it on there.  I am now running a victor on mine.  Anything done to the motor and are you running a toploader, or one of the big t-18/19's?

you wont find em anywhere cause I made them.  2 1/8 primary equal length.  Took me a month to make them.  I got my toploader for $100:D only cause dad sold it to the guy I got it back off of and he works for us.  Guy was going with an auto if he would EVER get his 64falcon done.  I ran it quite a while on the 43 year old bearings, and finally lost one.  When I pulled it out to fix it, I found out the input shaft was twisted

We'll see how long the rest of the trans lasts now because I just put in a McLeod dual disk clutch.  I have replaced pretty much all the gears in it because it was a close ratio and it didn't work too well with the 5200# truck.  Still using the stock 44 year old syncros:rollin:
Heres some pics of my headers





top one is an old header.  Dynomax for a 73/79 ford f150 1 5/8 primary

the only thing is its my dads trans he bought for the stang a long time ago
If I sold it I wouldnt have a trans for the car... As it is im trying to hunt down a clutch set up for it now.... not very easy....
If you want it, we will have it for a long time so let me know and i'll talk to him. But i know its worth money, and new transmissions are NOT cheap....
