Default I'll finally get to drive her!!!

Hey guys! My II has been on ramps for a month with a stuck lifter in the head. My dad talked to the local machine shop and they told him how to get it out and he did it! We plan on finishing my cam swap and putting on my new fuel pump and timing belt. She'll be going for a spin under her own power for the first time since I bought her! Hey, I promised pics when I got her running so They'll be here soon.

A special thanks to all who helped me with questions and allowed me to bounce zany ideas off of them.

Matt

Yeah, I think it would be a rude wake-up call to all the imports that the kids in town now drive... Especially when I'm getting a 350cfm Holley 2-barrel on her along with a single Flowmaster or glasspack (which sounds better on a 2.3?) Mine might outshine all though, I've got a chrome valve cover on her Proudly displaying "POWER BY FORD"... and hope to have a chrome air cleaner and breather on her soon.
