It's here!
 
I got the call from Reno. My car is HERE! SPF 1365 Titanium with Indigo blue stripes. I should be picking it up in a week to 10 days.
I'll be a busy boy for the next few months. With my luck I won't get it done untill the rainy season. I decided to go electronic fuel injection for my 427 TP and I'm in the process of building the manifold. I had to work up the courage to take a cutting tool to the 8V single plane Tunnel port intake that I will be using as the base. The injectors will look like a Weber set up utilizing 8 Enderle injector throttle bodies. I also decided to go with a T-56 six speed. I compared the price of a Tremec TKO including the aluminum spacer plate needed to fit the trans behind the FE bellhousing and found the six speed is only about $400 more. I will have to do some minor modifications but nothing too radical. It will be nice having a .80 5th gear and a .62 6th gear compared to the Tremec's .68 5th gear.
Back to work and I'll see you guys at breakfast soon,

Congratulations!

I'm tentatively planning on going up to Dynamic in Reno next Friday the 14th to pick mine up. :D I'll sneak a peek at yours if it's still there.:cool:

More SPFs
 
SFfiredon & dexter,
Fantastic, looking forward to seeing you/them at Athens.

More SPFs, more SPFs, more SPFs. :) (awsome cars!) I'll be up and running before end of Summer with a non-SPF, for a little diversity at breakfast.
