i cant find on the sheet where it mentions the rims.

i suggest you also put a Bo Jism clutch into your 455 ta as soon as possible . how do you like it in the ws6?

it wont show on the phs, you would have to find the build sheet to know for sure. alot of times they are behind the back seat.

Remove center cap, rotate one-third clockwise, replace.

i found the power locks!

You can always do it this way too...its what I did several years back.

Set of 87cc E-heads, H/O HC-02 cam, Rare manifolds w/Pypes exhaust, Cliff's Q-jet, and go out and twist the tires off of it.

Either way...nice find. Have had mine since new.

Nice car.

You asked earlier about the cost of HO heads I would talk to Dave at sd performance out of BC. He is the best and gives good advice.
These flow good
1971 # 191 $2000 - 2500
1972 $1500 - 2000
+ Need diferent headers for those. $

The # 64 heads that have heen called HO $1000 probably don't flow as good as the ones that you have. You don't have to buy different headers. Some newer brackets don't bolt on without mods.

You can take the heads you have and mill them down .060 use .020 head gaskets
and get about 8.75:1. Your heads will flow ok.
You will have to machine the inake side of the heads as well and use locking rocker nuts.
If you don't want to use your heads you can find a set for cheap. If you come out here I have a couple sets Very very cheap.

with an "en vogue" name like ecoboost how do you not buy one!

[big hammer]

i found some 96's. what does everyone think of those?

[2manyT/A'S]

Buy em & send them to Dick at SD Performance.

He's pulling HUGE flow #'s out of the garden variety 6X's.

FYI: The "Pep Boys" lugnuts on your Snowflakes look like the taper seat style.

There are reasonably priced correct repros out there.

Change them out before your wheels fall off and or get damaged.
