Oh hell yes !!!!!!
 
What kinda rev,s do you think he's pullin their ?
That's gota be upwards of 8000 or more.
 
In our monthly hot rod mag there is a right up on Tony Marsh who ran the worlds fastest small block, and it was a Cleveland.
Problem I have with that is the block was a Dart and all sundry items wouldn't resemble a ford stocker anyway, but the thing that rang some bells for me and I am quoting directly from the book, is while dyno tuning the engine they were starting the power run at 8200 rpm and taking it to the exteame of 10,400

i wanna trade!
 
the Ranchero is just kinda what i have for now anyway, i started out with a 73 Sport formal, then i had a 72 Q code Sportsroof that i wish i kept... wait there was a 72 formal that i chopped the top off in there somewhere, that was FUN! i did a pretty nice job for a hack, i left extra metal all the way around and rolled it under so there were no raw/unfinished edges
 
maybe someday i'll build my FMX Sport, it's basically a Ranchero to the door glass, then shortened wagon quarters/roof on a Torino wheelbase or shorter
