8) start with the owner and sponsor of the forum, www.classicinlines.com

great idea, plus:
just go to their site for a huge compendium of info on these
"Falcon engines" as their called
(1960 - '93, 144 ci - 4.9 L)
More than "buying" it lists a buncha capacities, stats, specifications, options/ideas & history.

You are relatively limited. classicinlines.com and possibly still cliffords. Otherwise, ebay, craigslist, and the classifieds here.

You might also get a copy of the Falcon Performance book has a lot of great info on mods to these sixes.

Yep classicinlines.com and fordsix.com is the place to be. Take a look at the dyno results to see what some of the mods can do. Definitely get The Falcon Manual. Good luck with your build.

Iv been reading alot of the tech articles from classic inlines. Its a great place and so is here i just dont have alot of money to buy all the parts i can do the work. I'm restoring a 64 falcon two door sedan. I've bought a 74 maverick for the five lug and 250. I plan on just doing alittle at a time. Thanks for the input.

8) thats all anyone can do. just remember to start with a solid foundation, IE get the short block built properly first, then deal with the higher performance stuff. better cams, head, carb, etc all do no good if the basic engine decides to pack it in.
