    I'd like to do a tear down on my 460bb,clean her up,do a thorough
    inspection of everything,and build her back up with some performance
    parts.
    My question is,what few perf.parts could i add to get some pep?

    What i have is a '77 Ford F250,2 wheel drive,and all stock with the exception
    of an Edlebrock 1406 carb(electric choke)4bbl and K&N air filter,MSD blaster2
    coil and dist.cap

    I have had the oil pan off a couple of times and seen that she's a 2 bolt main.
    Any suggestions?
    I have one on the street with early 429 heads. Comp hydralic around 280 deg
    cam. early timing gears of course, Wiend stealth and decent headers
    that feels real strong. 4000lbs with 3:55's and a 10 in. convertor.
    I have a 850 holley for it, but run a 600 double pump for street purposes.
    Still feels good red light to red light etc...flat tappet with Lucas additive. I prefer the screw in studs
    and adjustable rockers. IMO the CJ heads are too big.

    A Ranchero is NOT an El Camino
