    AC Ventura liked post by patrickt On thread : Tragic Accident
    Quality components, and adherence to just basic good-mechanics, is pretty important. You don't have to be tracking the car, or even running her hard, to get in to a serious accident if you have a...

    AC Ventura liked post by patrickt On thread : First start of the Pond 427 FE in-car
    I like that, turn the key, see if it blows up and, if not, check for leaks. Yep, after all these years I still do the exact same thing.:LOL:

    AC Ventura liked post by Frank Messina On thread : Help identifying QFT carb please
    That is a timed vacuum port that is not needed in your case since you are not running vacuum advance and should be capped off. It does nothing at idle but supplies vacuum when the throttle is opened...

    AC Ventura liked post by Mark IV On thread : AC Mk IV...the general consensus?
    Brian loved to tell that story. 1) the time was WAY less. 2) The 427 bucks had been binned by AC so the MK IV was built on fiberglass forms that Autokraft built. They DID have the Ace, 289 and FIA...
