Ford Blue blood

With an engine that has 50 gallon garbage can lids for valves, raised exhaust ports and a big cam that is not too much carb.  My Boss 302 in competition form ran an 850 CFM and probably could have used more.  I ran a stock Ford 289 "Lemans" cam (solids), long tube headers with passenger side exhaust exit, 427 triple valve springs, roller rockers with a valve cover Ford made to tie the studs down, Mallory dual point distributor ( 4 lobe cam), 11:1 pistons and a 10 quart oiling system.  The cam jumped alive at 3200 and pulled it's guts out to 8500.  Yup, IMHO I do believe the 1050 was most likely the correct size for competition.

When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

That old cabover reminds me of the 47 Dodge cabover wrecker at the neighborhood garage I worked at in the mid 60's.

I think those old trucks were bulletproof.

  We had a '48 Ford wrecker at the junkyard I ran during the summer of '66. That old girl would pull like a bear with the 337 and 2 speed rear. Merrill's Used Auto Parts, Old Orchard Beach, Maine.
