[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3479308, member: 5412"] I was a Ford guy back in the day. My pride and joy was a 66 Ford Fairlane GT-390 bought in 74. It was built by a guy in town that had HP in his blood. Died right after completing it and I got it from the estate. Deep metal flake blue in color, every piece of chrome redone with creager mags. Amazing amount of HP. Much more than any other 390 on the street. Later on after many thousands of miles the valves needed ground so took the heads up to a shop that specialized in building race engines. One look and he asked where I got those heads. Turned out to be some of the very rare NASCAR heads only out in a few hundred vehicles a year so NASCAR could run them in their cars as “factory stock”. He said the heads were worth more than the vehicle. [/QUOTE]
