Awesome . I have a new one as well I need to install. It will be replacing an old Hurst shifter.

What handle is that? I have the comfort one. Everything is still packaged up.

And yes they are still making them.

Cool. Hopefully I like the comfort one. If not I'll order up the standard.

Well...

Some may know I purchased a LMR steering wheel a few weeks ago. It's the cruise control version.

And then of course they offer the non cruise control steering wheel not much later....

My car doesn't have cruise control. Other one came in today, looks great!

So if anyone is looking for a cruise control steering wheel I have one! The buttons are nos, but have some light scratches because they were in bulk, not separate boxes.

The wheel itself is ones sold on eBay with minor flaws. Very hard to tell.

Went out to a friend's shop today. I said, "man you should build me a 347 again". He says, "I have a complete 302 motor you can have".

Hmmm.

I also just found out that my 347 is a solid roller cam. I had the engine built almost 10 years ago now and just recently got it in something. No build sheet from the shop and the builder never told me, so I spent the morning lashing the valves on it.

Im also fixing the valve cover stud that broke off in the head. I drilled it out the other day, now I’m just waiting for the helicoil and new stud to come in the mail.

Yeah I need to do the real main again I did it when I first bought it and now it's leaking again. I'm just being lazy.
My rear main seal is leaking to. Seems to be a common thing.
Those new gauges look great, Brady. Man, do you EVER pause with mods? LOL!
Thanks Bob! I have an addiction, more parts on the way!

Yeah Bdubbs their always going to leak you can replace them and then see them leaking again a couple months down the road. That's why I hasn't done it yet.

Added some more sticker-based horsepower, updated the airbox hardware, added new inner seat-belt sleeves, and installed hood rubber bumpers. :D

Well took "Blue Bimbo" out for the first time since winter storage last October!

I installed a new steering wheel and now when driving straight the wheel is crooked. It's at about the 1 o'clock position. I did install outer tie rods last summer. Probably time for an alignment.

The cobra might be a couple weeks. Still kinda dirty out there.
