Very impressive, considering the size of the engine, and the size of the car. You have definitely done more than a few things right. Nice work.

Thanks!

I would've put a Hurst shifter in the car.

Good news… it has a Hurst shifter.

Do you remember what length pushrods you used, I’m putting the f303+ cam in my 89 mustang with gt40p heads

Hello! I’m planning to get a 1968 ford Torino 302 3 speed automatic from my moms uncle and I’ve been researching for info on this car and I would like to ask for do you think this car can be a good daily driver well with ur experience with ur own car ofc And what’s ur mpg!

[@dominikfryer4049]

Curious on what cc chamber your heads are? I’m looking at running roughly the same combination as you as far as short block just a little bit different head and intake. Also if you’ve had any piston to valve clearance issues with the cam and heads your running.

[@mikeymac9]

When I ported the heads I cc’d them at 66. Ford advertised them at 64. Also I had around .080 clearance on the intake valve and over .100 on the exhaust. I’d have to check my notes it’s been awhile. These are stock valve relief pistons… explorer motor.

[@mikeymac9]

Also piston was I the hole .0025 and .039 head gasket. So it’s right around 9:1.
