yeah me and my buddy mike made it with his boss pinto  the one that was on the front for a while..   he put the duel side draft webbers on it now and its got 200 +hp now  ;D   got some good comments from kids my age (19)  and a few kids wanna get a club goin..      for the west coast.  (bay area)  i met up with a few people in the swap meet and got a few things which might be useful to us..  a weather stripping retailer which can order certain runs and other things for window seals and what not..   (weatherstripspecial.com)    and alsoa company which you can obtain brochures and original factory owners manuals and what not...    and also a company which sells dashboard covers which you can have custom tailored scripts writton on there such as "fordpinto.com" or something..     called dash hugger and u can find them at dashhugger.com   only 35 bucks plus shipping..   had alot of fun and picked up a pair of break lights for 5 bucks no cracks no fading almost brand new...    got some good deals and made a few connections

Cool deal. I'm interested in the 200 hp deal. How, exactly did he arrive at 200 hp by bolting on a set of side drafts?? Inquiring minds need to know............ ;D
