Quote from: blackthunder1970 on May 19, 2024, 10:27:36 PMHiYou would need to know what all was included. Given he wrote too much to list you can only assume that there is more then in the pictures.
What do you think the value of all the parts are worth
Seeing if it variable to do a package deal
Quote from: ridgeter on May 19, 2024, 01:56:11 AMSorry - just saw this today and the car was up on a lift I will take a look - would it be a noticeable texture difference?Chopped fiberglass strands or smooth are two different distinct textures.Quote from: Coralsnake on April 14, 2024, 09:54:36 AMJust curious on the front lower valence, below the bumper, is the backside of this part chopped fiberglass strands, or smooth?
Quote from: Cobra Ned on May 18, 2024, 06:24:23 PMI think the Ghostbusters are needed. Today, CSX 2093 is in England and being vintage-raced. But through some miracle, it has become a right-hand-drive car. I wonder who might be able to explain this. Surely no one acquires a famous car, hides it in his shed, and builds a clone to race, right?That would be a first ,right ?

Quote from: TA Coupe on May 17, 2024, 10:53:28 PMIf you remember, there was an all aluminum 390 in a Cobra and a .030 over 390 comes out to 396🤔Strange in that the 390 Aluminum engine was a 1964 development that seemed to get side lined . By 1968 I would think that it would be old tech. What is the validity of the 396 FE being a de stroked 427?

Quote from: Coralsnake on May 15, 2024, 04:46:26 PMI spoke to Jesse today. They are just getting rid of some excess inventory. Nothing trick. You can see the lots online. The business is not closing.I am so happy to read that they are not closing. It would be a end of a era for many of us.

Quote from: vtgt500 on May 13, 2024, 03:31:10 PMHere is the picture of the enclosure that looks the part of a turkey pan that the carb sits in on top of the intake.Quote from: Bob Gaines on May 11, 2024, 05:01:28 PMQuote from: vtgt500 on May 11, 2024, 04:26:18 PMIn the late '70s while working at Ford T&C I spent my free time hanging out at a couple of the more successful engine builders in Livonia. Was told the benefit of using the turkey pan was to keep the intake charge cool as possible.I think you are mixing up two different pan terms. The Turkey pan is normally used to describe a enclosure around the carb which resembles a thanksgiving turkey pan. It is seen mostly used on competition Cobras to keep the cooler air from the hood scoop near the carb . By contrast the sheet metal heat shield underneath the intake is to keep oil away from the high temperature at the bottom of the intake heat riser crossover. The bottom of the intake becomes so hot (not cool)from the heat riser crossover that the oil can break down and burn leaving a coke deposit residue.
I've seen the carb insulator barrier you describe, not knowing what it was called. The lifter galley pan used on Clevelands and FEs was also called a turkey pan within Ford engine manufacturing plants. Combined with blocking off the crossover is effective in reducing intake manifold temperature. Objective being, an attempt at
suppressing detonation. Today, air gap intake manifolds seem to fill that role.
Quote from: roddster on May 13, 2024, 09:58:25 AMIs your 67 350 a hubcap car? The ones that came with Magstars or ten spokes would have the spare wheel match.If you re read the first post he says it is a clone of a 67 GT350 so it can be anything he wants it to be.
