I see a set or two a week on the cologne fb groups.
Do you have a link to a group that is not in England? I am not very facebook savy. I did search and the ones I saw were overseas.
Is that where you find all your cool shit?
I know, my friend used to race a 302 Granada on the oval tracks and his class required stock unported heads and a stock 2 barrel carb. He used 351w marine heads and a 500 cfm 2150 off a 429. They had Ford part numbers so the tech guys were happy. A 351m from a 70's truck had about a 350 cfm carb. The cfm recommendations in the carb catalogs don't jive with my experience. I built a 302 with an RV style cam, stock fox headers with the dents removed, and an 85 Mustang GT intake manifold for a Cougar sedan I had. The chart said I needed about 450 cfm, the new Holley about that size is big bucks so I bought and rebuilt a used 390 cfm. It ran good- I thought- until I swapped the 600 off my Mustang. 390 is a lot closer to 450 than 600 is but the engine liked the 600 a lot better.
Yuuuuup. That, and using a VPN with a UK or German IP address and searching google/eBay, etc.
You gotta remember though....in stock form the 351M/W 400, whatever from the 2150 era wasnt really setup to build power up in the higher RPM ranges where you would need massive amounts of flow.
No clue what a VPN is lol
