    Which Ford Engine for my car?

    One other consideration if you are thinking about aftermarket or Ford Z heads. Try to stay with heads that have the exhaust ports in the stock location. This is probably not an issue with your modest HP requirements, but worth keeping in mind if you buy the engine from an individual. GT40...

    Oh, I don't know. She sucked as a candidate, blew her campaign, and screwed the party! She seems very skilled.

    Dash top demister grill

    Mark (MDA) sells these, latches, and other parts on ebay. After having the same experience you are having, I went into ebay and built an autonotification. I ended up getting both the demister and latches at very reasonable prices from Mark through ebay. Your other option is to contact Peter...

    Buy manual first?

    Hi, Ray! The beauty of the online manual is that it is instantly updated for all. It is an excellent reference for how the RCR parts go together, but most parts are installed on the car when you purchase it, so you get a good idea how it all goes together without having to figure out what...

    Mark Reid RCR-40 Build

    During my conversation with Ron McCall, I asked him about throttle cables. I am using a 144" Lokar braided cable and I don't like it. I need a longer cable due to coming in from the side to throttle my carbs. The Lokar is too stiff and it has stretched a coupe of times already and I haven't...

    Any Pictures from Carlise yet???!!!

    Ron, this picture is great (that's my son Mike in the red shirt and black hat), but more so due to the order of RCR GT40s. Yours in the front is the standard rear width, mine next is the +2 and Frans' yellow one is +4.

    Any Pictures from Carlise yet???!!!

    We just got back from our 580 mile round trip to Carlisle. Nothing like bringing the whole family and brother in law for an interesting trip. We made it a family affair and it was fun for all, but I had a blast on Saturday! The weather was great and I met so many wonderful people from several...

    Wow, very interesting conversation while I was gone! Lots of good input and I appreciate it. You guys are always great! Let me clarify a couple of points: 1. The 4150 HP (390 cfm) carbs are set up for progressive linkage and I plan on leaving them that way (see the next point). During...

    Mark Reid RCR-40 Build

    In a marathon session, we did everything possible to get ready for Carlisle, but unlike Boyd and crew, didn't get it all done. We are failures! Actually, I was never going to finish by Carlisle, just have enough to look respectable. The biggest win was that I fixed the oil problem! I'm a...
