A friend and I took out old motor, made some brackets for the fuel pump and regulator. We got the new one in and here's some pictures of it so far-

Oh is that's the engine that made 622 HP at 5,500?
Nice looking part there. Have you had that much power in that Sprint before? Be carefull with that.
How much Compression and how big of a cam do you have in that thing?
Good luck with the project.

Hi Bud !! That looks outstanding , I can see the amount of hours you have in it . Take your time and finish up strong. I picked up your twin this last weekend from Mitch , he was pretty sad to see it leave. One of the reasons I had to have it was to keep it in the family. Mitch and Deb are two of the best friends Shell and I have ever had and I'm proud to have his Sprint. At least he will be able to use it whenever he wants. Say hey to your Pop and we hope to see you soon. Jim CDBA "HOWLER 439 "

Now that's a baby cam for a 521 what is the lift? I thought something like that when I saw you HP #'s.:idea: After you run it for a season or two step up to something in the 254-260 dur, range or a mechanical in the 260-268 range with a 108-110 lope sep and you'll pick up 100+ hp.:D
But you'll have alot of fun as it is. Good luck and have fun with that Ford.
