Wink New Member Here Introducing Himself

Hello there folks! I own a 1966 F-100 Twin I Beam Stepside Its red with some yellow flames. I have rebuilt the original 352 engine and added a high flow edelbrock RPM Peformer intake manifold. It also has a crane cams powermax cam, and Edelbrock 4-barell. I had first put a holly on but It such a bear to adjust and run i took it back and got and edelbrock manual choke and adjusted it once and it runs perefect, didnt notice a difference in power between the carbs. I plan to upgrade the igntion system with a new distruviro. My next big prohject on it is to add a nice six speed manual. My current setup has a zero to sixty time of 8.7 seconds (but thats because I burned out too much at the start) . I can burn out in every gear excpet 4th. Tire wear is starting to become and issue. Oh yeah and ive got some nice hedmans that I got for 10 bucks from my friend who dented them and couldnt send them back. I love trucks and this wevsite is awesmome! I am very proud to live in America where you can have freedom of expression and a good life. I am constanlty street racing it and sometimes go to the track.
