Website up and running!
Hi, my name is Dwane Park, some of you may recognize me from "SIR". I am in a wheelchair and race a 1977 F-100 with a 429 in it. My friend helped me get a website up and going, there is still a lot of work, but check it out please.
Regards,
Dwane

My Flathead can go faster...... all 110hp of it lol
either way I got a 77 Grand Marquis with a 460 motor, I picked it up for 25 bucks with the plan of a demo derby. Can't really bring myself to destroying a great running 460 though......
I think I still have a 429 motor that I pulled out of a 68 Ford tow truck (previous transplant)

It just came down to what was available for complete engines. Yes the earlier 429 and 460 engines are similar in power but the early 460's are rare. There are more 429's with high compression and better heads available than say a 1968 460 and the newer 460's have less of a starting point even more so. So I opted for the 429.
1969 429 = 375HP
1971 429 = 375HP
1972 429 = 220HP
1968 460 =360HP
1972 460 = 212HP
1969 429 = 375HP
1971 429 = 375HP
1972 429 = 220HP
1968 460 =360HP
1972 460 = 212HP
