Re: 1971 Centurion Formal Coupe

I had to dig in the forums deep for this thread!

I have a new powerplant being built for the Coupe in Cincinnati this month. It is supposed to be finished by the end of January. It is currently running on a donor 72 455 from an Electra. I can definitely feel the difference from the engine I had in it (before I melted a couple rod bearings).

I hope to shoot video of the engine dyno session and get some sound clips of it inside the car as I drive home!

I'm completely broke now, but I'll be happy [img]<>/smile.gif[/img]

It's only money, I'll make more....right?
