Default Re: U/SA 302 ffffford build

One step ahead.....numerous back....

Had an accelerator pump weeping a bit, so I replaced it. Hit the key and won't fire? Checked, yup lots of gas...no spark??? After a bit of wire tracing and pulling the msd box out I found a momentary switch under the dash went bad! I had installed it 30 years or so ago when I was running the 302 with 2 4bbls and had the distributor locked out at 38*. I would hold in the button to get it rolling over then let it out to fire it up. Apparently it decided that it didn't want to play any more. Better here than the track of course. Totally forgot it was there! lol.

Installed a neutral switch.

Found a pair of red seats...buddy wants $350 for the pair. Still looking....

Wrote off the wifes bronco

Tore my left bicep muscle off working out so that laid me up a bit.

First race is 24 May.....getting concerned. It might be a bracket car until I get the rest of the stocker stuff finished...
