    I've been toying with the idea of putting a wide ratio box in it if I change to like a 370 or 3.90 gear

    This is the 6th time this engine has been repaired. So I'm being careful until I know I'm good.

    Never knew an m22 was considered weak.

    Both valvecovers have breathers currently.

    Just the breather on the oil fill tube?

    With this thing I look at it as smiles per gallon. Not miles per gallon. We only live once. Have fun!

    Yes I know this. Others were saying how bad I was screwing up by having a close ratio Trans with the 2.20 first gear. Personally I think they're a blast to drive. Especially with a tight gear.

    Engine breathers

    Not sure if this had been asked before so I apologize ahead of time. On my 409, the rear port on the intake that was for a road tube/pcv has been capped off due to the valve covers having breathers on them. With that being said, I'll be getting an original pair of offenhauser valve covers that...

    Contrary to the popular belief of others due to the car having a 2.20 first gear and a 4.56 ring and pinion.

    I did drill it once when I turned around. Got it going about 10mph and wacked it. Quads opened and it actually broke the tires loose. I let out of it real quick as it was getting silly. So once all is good, it should be fun to drive

    You are correct. I did baby it when I left. It was when I turned around when I nailed it. And yes the cold light does work. I usually wait till it's 160 before I do anything.

    First drive of 2024. Mom didn't think I was coming back right away so she didn't get footage of me drilling it when I turned around.

    Roller cam ???

    I run a crane .655 solid roller in mine with crower lifters. So far so good. It's everything else I've had issues with. Lol
