Roy didn't charge a great deal and he has jigs made up to use any frame brackets you have, even the '73s. 71-72 both are the same, but the '73 are unique since Ford went to the retention style motor mounts due to federal regulations. Give Roy a call. He's a nice guy and you'll likely be...

You're on the mark there! If you have old late 60's early 70's Hot Rod magazines they would talk about putting holes in the primary throttle plates to keep them away from the transfer slots. I've seen it on old Holley carbs at swap meets. I used to attend the meets in the infield of the Indy 500...

I can give you pics of mine. The man you want to talk to is Roy as listed above. Here's what he made for me.

Love that Bullitt fastback!

I'll go look at the carb later and snap some pics. I scored a 428 CJ back in 1986. All disassembled, he had been buying bits and pieces for years and never got around to assembling it. I kinda went off the deep end on that one. My machine shop guy was an old Hemi Dart racer and he gave me a ton...

I have that exact carb at home in my garage! I bought a 429 SCJ out of a Torino Cobra about 42-43 years ago for a pittance. Complete from carb to oil pan! The guy asked me if I was interested in a 429 from a Torino. He described it to me and I realized what he had. I asked him how much. He said...

302W and the Boss 302. Effectively a Cleveland headed 302. But we're talking 1970 now. The old Ford Muscle Parts book even had instructions on putting 4V Cleveland heads on a 302 block to make a home grown "Boss 302". I've seen a highly modified Boss 302 running Hilborn fuel injection make...

Unless it was originally a 302 car!

Welcome from southwestern Indiana! You have a very similar Mach 1 to mine!

Thank you, '72MustangSprint, but I took the one off my '72 convertible. I'm working on the drawing and have the plan view completed, I'm just starting the rear view now. I'll do the front view and a side view with a couple of section views. I need one for my '72 Mach 1.

Thank you, Sheriff. He was also my godfather.

I've got one of those in my '72 Q code vert!

Enjoy it. They don't make Slomaros anymore, ya know... 😉

I'm working on an AutoCAD drawing for the part we're all looking for. I had hoped to get it done by now, but my uncle passed away last Saturday and I've been busy with family issues. I've been talking with Fabrice as he's been doing some amazing work on the '71 429CJ he's been restoring. He said...

My grandfather had one almost identical to yours, except his was a 360. He'd let me borrow it to go out driving around on days I helped with his citrus grove in central Florida.
