Hi All,

MM uppers are Ford HD uppers. What you listed there are good parts.

MM doesn't sell upper they recommend ford uppers with there lowers. Why not ford uppers? What do you recommend for uppers? [ June 14, 2007, 04:58 PM: Message edited by: PWR HNGRY 302 ]

If you only drag race the car then boxed uppers are fine. If you ever want to hang a corner don't buy boxed uppers.

You need adjustable arms. Theres really no reason to "upgrade" if you cant set your pinion and center of gravity.

but along with adjustability of the pinion isnt there a huge "i might fuck shit up factor" if not adjusted properly?
