Jeff this car is wonderfull. No power assists, same as my 65, the stock steering is tight and true and the disc brakes stop the car. Lowered the front end 1" and that improved the handling Pretty much a stock car with the usual 70's kind of owner mods. Smog is gone, Offy intake, Holley 3310-780 cfm carb, stock four speed w/crappy Ford shifter, yanked the 4:30's and put in a 3:25, the hydraulic cam and valve train are gone and have the clackity clack solid valve train w/shell lifters and extra long rods . Been to the 1/8 mile track here in San Diego, Qualcom Stadium, a couple of times and had a lot of fun. Got towed home the second time. Bent the Z-bar. Where my 65 is pretty wound up at about 80 mph the 428 goes right pass there heading for north of a 100 with no apparent effort. More power than you can really use on the street. A real world example of the difference between big block and small block cars. Got a little carried away there but thanks for asking. Brian
