wOOt! 12 hours of driving and I'm back. You should see the looks people give when they see a '66 f250 pulling another '66 3/4 ton on a car dolley about 6 inches too narrow! My old beast drove perfectly, apart from when the oil drain plug unscrewed and I lost two quarts. Oh yeah, and when the badass 93 octane ran out and the 91 started choking my engine - is that normal? Seriously though, I couldn't be happier with how smooth she ran and how hard she pulled. Going WAY too fast most of the time. I'll have exact mileage (best run was 12.5mpg for about 150 miles) and some pics later tonight!
Is higher octane in and of itself a good thing? It felt like she was flying on that 93 i found. But when I had to put 91 back in she got really rough for about 20 minutes... Was that normal? 390 f.e., no mods. Thanks fellas - pics soon
Last thing, the girl (real girlfriend) was a real trooper. She was really sweet the whole time - and it was a loooong time. Made me promise I'd build this one up for her like she wants it. I couldn't be happier
