Passing Through Saskatoon

Will be passing through Saskatoon on Saturday heading up to Cold Lake to pick up the race car, then back down on Monday night. If anyone sees my blue 78 Crew honk and wave, or try CB19. Also, as a plug; race car is an 85 Tbird with a 429, C6, and Mustang GT rear end 3.73 gears, 12.6 quarter mile. If anyone needs a Ford for the quarter mile...........we can maybe talk........

What heads on your 429, and what's your comp ratio? Im trying to put one together myself, but the comp ratio is to high.

Sorry, couldn't read the posts before. Made it up and back, only problems happened on the way back!! Rear tank on the Crew started leaking, hate rust!!! So, a new 38 gallon will be ordered, saddle tank needs replacing too, it's starting to seep a bit!! Just outside Portage, something in the drive line started hanging up, I think the clutch and throw-out bearing are on the way out. Then just before home, the left rear brake hung up, limped into the driveway to the smell of overheating brakes, and a very hot hub!

Lockups: running the stock DOVE heads, ported, polished, 3 angle valves, heads and block milled to about a 10-1 compression.
