so my 70 has been in my garage for the last year and need to start working on it it currently has block 69block

msd wires, coil, and a Ready-To-Run Distributor
edlbrock - intake, waterpump, fuel pump
holly street avenger 650
long tubes to custom striaght pipes to spintech prostreets side exit think thats it besides a complete mustangs plus suspenion and subframes and center connector.

want to add a carb spacer but need to cut the hood and add my 429 scoop to let it fit

not sure what cam is in it. pistons arent stock was told it was bored .20 over but not sure there was no stamp or anything on them when i had to pull the heads from a headgasket leak

any suggestions would be great

You can find cam specs with degree wheel and dial indicator. Check bore with dial bore gauge, snap gauge and micrometer or caliper. Its good to know these things :-) btw... DONT CUT! you dont need a spacer.

Well the hood is getting cut due to the boss 429 hood I have for it just don't know how to do body work as for a price looking between 800 to 1200 that's in a few months just starting to plan it out.
