About my Ranchero

My favorite car in my collection
351 Windsor built by me, .030
TFS cast iron high port heads, crane solid cam
stock crank and rods, wiesco pistons all balanced.
custom made oil pan, pickup, 8qt of 10W40 AMSOIL
AOD non lockup transmission built by me 2.40 1st gear
ATI 10 inch converter,many internal transmission mods
deep aluminum pan and external cooler with external AMSOIL filter to catch any debris I left behind.
Transmission holds about 16 quarts of AMSOIL ATF.
aluminum driveshaft, 3.89 gear with a nodular 9 inch case and 31 spline axles, and of course filled with AMSOIL 75W90 severe gear oil
I run a return style fuel system pumping 93 octane through -10 feed and return lines and a Barry Grant 220 satisfying my engines and nitrous needs.
in 2001 this combo with DartJR made 370 to the wheels N/A Unkown with new TFS heads
and on 100hp NOS it made 470 hp and 586 ftlbs.
since then I have changed the intake and cam but the 600cfm 1850 holley seemed to run the best with this combo.
Every Friday night I take it to Homestead Motorsports track for 1/8 mile Drag Racing and I have a blast there showing how good my car runs.
so far the car runs 7.0 97mph with 1.5 60ft
