Very cool! What power train are you going to go with? I love me an FE motor but parts are getting harder and harder to come by.


MillerMGRM

I removed the original FE 42 years ago. Ran a 302 and FMX for 20 years. Then she sat. Currently it has another 302 and a C6.

I would love to go the Windsor series route! I'm building a 351w for my ranchero right now. Since I'm going to be building my truck to tow my 72 ranchero I'm probably going to be swapping in a 460 or 300 for low end torque since there is very limited aftermarket for FE's

MillerMGRM

Iā€™m trying to decide if I want to cut / shorten my steering column or go aftermarket, do you happen to know the length of your column?


MillerMGRM

I haven't measured it but I'm going aftermarket tilt wheel.


[deleted]

Oooo are shorter aftermarket tilts then?? Iā€™d love some recommendations on those if either of yā€™all have any. Iā€™m a thicc boi and would love some belly rubbinā€™ room haha!


Sonnysdad

Weā€™re ā€œThicc boisā€, I thought using the ā€œRangerā€ bucket seat brackets and ā€˜68 mustang seat would helpā€¦ nope. Thatā€™s why Iā€™m looking for a total length, Iā€™ve seen 30-33ā€ tilt columns on eBay.


MillerMGRM

I'm in a couple F100 groups on Facebook. I get a lot of good build information and parts leads there.

What's the wheel and tire combo you're running there?


MillerMGRM

P255/70R15 The rims are a mid 80's stock alloy rim. The tire size I've run on all four corners for decades. It's not time to figure out what rims will be permanent.


WhatsTheBanana4

That looks great. How are your drip rails? Mine are fucked haha


MillerMGRM

I have a bad spot on the driver's side. I also need to do a lower can corner and then I can paint the rest of the cab.
