I'll get some better photo comparisons. Don't know why the C6 intake carb base photo is showing up in the last. It shows up in line where it should be in my post edit.

I found where NPD was repoping the carb spacers for Fords so I contacted them about the 63-68 Lincoln carburetor spacers. They are willing to move forward with some good samples. I can provide two but one of mine has a bent tube. They need two or three in OEM form. Anyone have one to donate to the c...

I was wondering what the outlet hole size is on those center dump manifolds, eg 2.25" or 2.50", and what it was on the later rear dump manifolds you didnt use? Hey Werby, Message sent. These manifolds were for a 58 year modelnand the exhaust outlet is 2.25 ID. A hand full of folks I found all had c...

For any of you still having doubts about the MEL check out these sites and Brian Stefina's Super Marauder: http://www.blip.tv/file/433815/ The video is totally cool but so are the underhood pictures.

Truck is so quiet I could hear pre-detnation if we're to occur, but I keep octane supplement in the tool box just incase. So far the truck and trailer haven't been north of 9,000...

Also had to cut a corner off of the driver side engine mount to make way for the flange. I used the factory 63/64 352/390 Galaxie engine which allowed the...

The Lincoln Master Parts Catalog (September 1960 revision) still lists the SM tri-power specific to the Lincoln. So that's at least two years after it's introduction, as far as we can tell. Thanks' for posting. Do you have any knowledge if there was any performance preference to a guy who had say a...

I guess I should have use spell check prior to posting. LOL Anyways, Im hoping I can find the answer to this. Thanks Jeremy, if no one gives you a good answer on the upper pocket you may try e-mailing Ted Eaton. He has the Yblocksforever web site. I know he has done several MEL engines as of recent...
