  1. 715hp NA, nice!
    I like the combo of the painted roof, patina car.
    Them seats look like some business but the driver one will need to be upgraded if you go too quick
    Can't go wrong with some stack action! Sexy points galore plus the performance is there.
    Are you going to try and paint the motor and stuff under the hood to carry some of the classic colors onto the modern power plant?

  2. This is great stuff, I love it! I will also be interested to see how the synchros hold up in that six speed. I had better luck with the old T-56's that had the bigger sychros, especially the Viper sourced version with stainless steel. I understand why Tremec made them smaller to increase the gear power rating, but the newer Tremecs seem to go through scnchros far too quickly from my experience.

  3. When I was young, I had a 65 Comet. That would be a great car to update with new suspensions parts and a GODZILLA. I would take my second favorite Ford engine swap, a Windsor small block.

  4. To keep the stock car look, you’re gonna have to shelve that stack injection setup. Not period correct, coupled with too much of a problem for the hood. Get a carburetor looking EFI setup. I know I ain’t got no business telling you guys what to do with your stuff, but I’m just keeping it real. You can use that stack setup on a Cobra tribute or replica car

  5. Great video! I was curious at first about why not use a TKX but then you covered it. I like the choice of seats and that they're color matched. I LOVE the rear spoiler – Abe has some mad talent. As I'm doing IR stacks on my small block of course I approve of the stacks on this engine being "COOL CORRECT"! I'd really be anxious to see the power comparison between the stacks and the other intake setups for sure. I love the vision you have for this car. Wondering what wheel and tire combo you will ultimately go with. Looking forward to the final outcome!
