Taking it apart.
By Royce Peterson - 03/27/2002 8:31:59 PM; IP 205.188.200.175
I have started the massive job of pulling the C^ from my green 427 Cougar GTE. So far I have:
1. Removed the radiator and fan shroud so the shroud doesn't get destroyed when the motor tilts.
2. Removed the export brace so the Lemans style Cougar valve covers can be removed to access the header bolts.
3. Started wondering about my sanity. This is a pain in the ##!

Got a good look at the valve train for the first time in years. Edelbrock springs, retainers, keepers all look great still. Harland Sharp rollers and home made bronze spacers working well. Here's a picture:
