I just had to look that one up! That was the one that had a regular Motorcraft carb adapted to the intake and looked like it was wider than the motor. As I recall, they had nice looking heads and the solid cam is a plus but were real light on torque. I would want to see how big the carb is because Motorcraft made some really small 2V carbs.
