Hey Scott. Here's the cam card. Flat solid. Hoping for something stout enough to be fun but stay together and not scare the shit out of him. Can always step up on heads carb cam headers when he really gets a taste for the dope
That's a damn bit more stout than I expected! Somehow,I had it in my head that y'all had some dinky little [email protected]/.512" cam in that Windsor that was gonna fall on its face around 5800rpm,downhill,with a tailwind,but that right there is pretty close to the old Ford "LeMans" flat tappet grind,but with a touch more lift,and a bit longer duration on the exhaust side. That little bastard will make some R's,and the 106 lobe separation warms my heart. That thing should pull like a freight train through the upper/mid revs with that cam. You guys will have some fun! I agree with James....a looser convertor would wake it up on the leave,but I don't want hotdog to leave TOO good....I need to have a fightin' chance against SOMEBODY this year!

You'll have more than a fighting chance. If this ratty rust bucket hooks it'll probably fall apart by the 60' mark.
Just to get it running. It's the shelf distributor. Will eventually get a pro billet knockoff and a 6al. Funds tight now.

Way things are going riff raff ain't gonna get more than a few drops of oil on the hamster wheel before meltdowns. Time for a new trans and converter in tow rig. Goddamn they're expensive!
Would love to see the falcon that's in the trailer in the background of the one outside picture you posted.
