RE: very sorry..

Didn't mean to offend anyone with my one derogatory comment regarding the 351CJ.

Obviously the mighty C has tremendous potential. Mine was a '72 Ranchero GT w/4 speed, 3.25 gearing. As Mr. F indicates it was the new wave of low octane High Performance. It ran very smoothly and nicely. Fun to drive, etc. I ran it once against a friends '70 Cyclone Spoiler in which he had replaced the SCJ '29 with a mildly built Thunderjet(Standard 429-4V). Wasn't much of a race. My 351CJ was way behind by the time his C-6 shifted into second. But with my '66 390GT/A...it was much more interesting. It was close but I could pull the Spoiler by a half a car length. Again, the Spoiler was equipped with a standard 429-4V with a mild re-grind cam.

So I take back my bad statement about the 351C-Cobra Jet. Nice mill with 4 bolt mains and lots of power producing potential.
This thread, so far...
