Looking at the intake manifold noticed you have the rare cross boss one, would have been very nice if you had the inline autolite four barrel carb, the only thing about them they had no choke and are super rare and expensive $$$$$

Cross BOSS is a different intake.
This is the Bud Moore Mini Plenum.

I have a picture of a Cross BOSS - in a Pinto....

While the smaller in lines are street able, the bigger ones work best WFO. ie: Trans AM

Its been years since I have seen one, back in the very early 70s,  we had a small group of ford guys and one of them worked at the local ford dealer in the parts department, he had one with the manifold on his 70 boss 302 mustang , later he brought a spare engine shortblock for it, first thing you noticed it had four bolt mains and screw in core plugs,  later found out the rods were the special 3/8 bolt 289 long rods , the boss Pistons only would fit with that combination,  that is what made made me notice yours because of the top that comes off, did not know it was a bud more,  on the pluss side it makes porting the intake to match the heads a dream,  thank for reviving old memories from the past 😸

The Bud Moore intakes have been going as high as (for NOS) $4500.00 +

CROSS BOSS now : http://www.ebay.com/itm/131487913847?item=131487913847&viewitem=&vxp=mtr

First B2 engine I bought back in the 70s for $200.00. All parts on boxes. 6 of the 8 pistons had cracked skirts. Common for them to do that.
I replaced all rotating parts. Seem to remember it cost about $1300.00 ?

Huge difference now ! Most people would have a stroke if they knew how much $ I now have in my engine !

That one is going for $10,500 on the link. I amazed at what I put into my cars to be honest, or even my truck. You've built one heck of an engine there Reeves. It not only looks awesome, it looks like an amazing runner.

All of use restoring a Pinto, or something else, end up putting way more than we expect in one.

I know what you mean on how much money you spend fixing up a car , hope you got it under lock and key, what you have in the pinto may be worth more than the contents of most people's homes, 🙀 (done the same here on some aircraft that I've owned) hope that engine runs for years for you with no trouble even when you flog it once in a while,but looking at the org cross boss intake with the carb for ten grand might not be to bad , a good fuel injection will run you half that but , that one on e bay looks nice, even got the jet kit,  as the old saying goes wish I knew what I know now back then, later Blaine ,

Very much so ! Steel bars on windows, that are blacked out. Plus a number of other security "specials".
Plus a backhoe.....if you get my meaning......

City trip yesterday.
Soda blast a 302w intake and the B2 valve covers. Covers came out nice - BOSS 302 stickers on & back on the engine.
Intake was really dirty. Needs to be walnut blasted to get it as nice as I want it.
While that was being done (soda blasting) I drove over to Mopac. Bought fuel line stuff ($ !) - start working on that next. I have 1/2" stainless tubing for the main line (8 AN fittings). I'll have to pick up a length of 3/8" stainless for the return line (6 AN).

When I headed out for the city I stopped at a rad shop in the town I live near. Explained what changes I need to the bottom hose connection ( a 90 & 45 degree bends) and the new water neck for the mini plenum. He says he can do it & make it look really nice.
I'll make a "blueprint" for the water neck & drop it off with the rad this week.
I'm not set up for aluminum or stainless welding.

Still a ton of other parts to get....it seems ! LOL !

Road trip today....going to take most of the day. Places here in Canada are far apart  ;D ;D

My case of trans oil : http://www.penngrade1.com/Products/Gear-Lubricants/GL4-SAE-80W90.aspx came in. Rather than have a shipping co. pick it up, I am.

Then off to Mopac to pick a few more fuel line parts. Need a few more fittings & stainless hose.

Looked all over for someone to make my new water neck for me , in stainless or aluminum. Found two places that would do so.....both said it will be very expensive.
So, I decided to build it myself out of steel exhaust pipe. Had on piece mandrell bent for me. I'll get it ceramic coated (inside and out) when done so it looks good.
Pick the pipe up today.

Have two/three other stops to make for other small parts.

Likely a full day driving & about $500.00 in parts......tha t I'll be able to carry in one plastic bag  :o

Good trip !

Sort of....couldn't find a 90 degree mandrell bend. Need to make some phone calls.
Forgot a couple small 8AN fittings at Mopac.

But where I picked up my trans oil , the guy has a 71 Mustang (shell) over a full tube frame with a 500+ ci Ford Hemi - over 3000 HP ! Cool car !

A few rain squalls on the way home & shortly after getting home got rain, snow ball type snow , snow & thunder etc.

The small things to tidy up a car takes time. Lots of time !

Didn't ask. Maybe Outlaw 8.50 ? Maybe faster ? Rigged up for two chutes.

Using AN fittings for the first time. Different flare angles than a normal flare kit, which is 45 degrees.
AN is 37 degrees. So new flaring tool (much better / stronger) is over $200.00 - figures !

I looked on Photobucket! WOW!

A bunch of pictures in that account have nothing to do with this car. Just dumped pictures into it for one reason or another.

Flaring tool acting up. Last two flares I had to use a wrench to turn in farther to get the flare done properly.
Maybe, doesn't like the hard 1/2" stainless metal ?
It has a center part with a pin, that releases when the flare is supposed to be done. No way to adjust.
The 1/2" feed line is done back to the new pump, except for one connection. Missing one 8AN nut.....gettin g more stuff today.

Starting the 3/8" stainless return line today.

I have to remove the tank & weld on two bungs to attach the lines.
Yes, it will be steamed out first !

Couldn't find an 1 1/2" stainless mandrel bend here. Got tired of looking local - ordered one from Summit. When it gets here I'll start on the water manifold.

I didn't post a picture in my last post.
No more till the engine bay is done.....excep t Headers. Not sure when they will be done.

Mopac sent some wrong fittings (8AN instead of 6AN).
Plus the wife "volunteered" me to go to haul my small backhoe to her friends place today to dig out a place for a hot tub. No car work today......  :'(

Bud - thinking yours will be 1st.
I have much to get done yet. Gas tank has to come out for two bungs to be welded on. Then the last gas lines built.
The Wilwood brake/hub kit is not here yet. When I get it, I also have to get new tires/rims.
Needs the windshield replaced.
Needs front alignment.
Needs new drive shaft made.
Needs new front shocks.

As early as today I will start work on a mock up water manifold. I have mild steel the same size for this.
Will use stainless for the "real" one & have it tig welded then ceramic coated.

Gas lines to the tank will be done today.
