I'm thinking of driving my 67 Falcon this summer when the snow clears up. It should be getting a 3.03 tranny-so the next logical step, of course, is what to play with in the engine bay?
I plan on picking up a pertronix ignition, and right now it's got a 77 250 head on it (cable throttle). I was maybe thinking of messing with the old original 67 200 head, cutting off the log and fabbing an intake, some porting, just to see what kind of power it can be made to produce. I've got a fully equipped machine shop at work, but don't want to spend a pile of money. Basically, I want to figure something out that requires labor, but not much $$.
Maybe a fabbed aussie-like 2 barrel intake? Or some nice long runners to dual Carter YF's/Autolites? The engine's NOT getting headers or a cam, but maybe I'll machine some high-ratio rocker arms and port the 250 manifold.
Any suggestions for messin with the head?
