Default XR288HR Cam
I've recently read some threads of guys looking for videos of cars with aXR228HR cam so they can hear how it idles. Here's a link to a Youtube video of how mine sounds.

434 cubes, KRE heads, Doug Headers, 2 1/2" pipes with DynoMax UltraFlo mufflers.

Thanks, Bill. I'm getting ready to install a Ford 9" rear in the Catalina, probably next next. I saw your dad's street rod when I was at Joe Timney's shop, a lot of great work on the car. It looks fantastic.

...Besides lower cost, why the 9" Ferd over the 9.25" pre-'65 Pontiac?

Matt, I like the strength, lighter weight, and the wide range of available differentials and gears. By the way, it's not that cheap, lol. Bob
