This site is a great resource! I found the paypal link and plan to use it. Bakersfield, (Kern County), is truck country, but I do not know many Ford enthusiasts here.

I am restoring a 72 F350 flatbed, which led me to this site a couple of weeks ago, and I am finally getting around to registering. I just completed the installation of a 2d analog projection system on the FE engine, and I am in the process of trying to figure out how to tune it correctly; if anyone else is planning a similar installation, I could probably save them some time and headaches! :roll:

Thanks again for a great site with usefull info!

Yes, it sounds crazy (and probably was) but it runs now. Here are some pics in a gallery, but i don't think I have them in the right order yet.

Fuel injection for an FE sounds like an interesting subject for a tech article.
