[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16879856, member: 70025"] Hello Redfire! Thank you sir! Yes, I feel very fortunate to go inside my garage and see this T-Bird sitting on one side and my 65 Mustang on the other. While the T-Bird was at my Dad's house I told him the world just didn't seem right without the T-Bird in my garage LMAO!!!! As of right now I will only be doing maintenance, driving it and keeping it original. That was one of the stipulations my Dad made when he gave it to me. He said once he is gone I can do whatever I want. If I can get this car to run right as it sits I will probably always keep it this way. However, after driving my 65 with the EFI set up I "have" considered installing EFI on the T-Bird just for reliability and drive ability. With the air cleaner in place it would be a little more difficult for folks to see it's EFI. I've seen a few 57 T-Birds with a coyote swap. Not sure I would go that far, but parts for these Y blocks are getting harder to find. Right now it's all about getting it to run and look like it did in 1957. [/QUOTE]
