    new here and have a 466 BBF in my 1970 torino, have always loved the turbo cars and with all the amount of interest and parts out there now i just wanted to keep up and rack up ideas for future rebuilds of my car. its mainly a street/occasionally strip build that is pretty nice now, i just like all of you, am never content with the current power level and would like to start getting educated on what may come next! thanks, any non-turbo questions about the Torino or 429/460 fords i can offer some help
    thanks Todd-

    460s are one of my favorite motors. Im going to be doing an s475, blow thru/e85 setup in the spring on mine. Gonna see what I can push a stock short block to do.

    Good see to another BBF guy around here.

    sounds good hopefully i can see yours done first before my own trial and errors. mine has the battery in the trunck and a mark VIII fan reversed and front mounted as a push fan (in garage pics) so i really do have two big spaces just asking for a twin turbo. i did just get my car all wired, running awesome in current form, plumbed, and am finishing the paint for finally assembly........so i have to at least ride it for one season the way it is! like i said.....most of us are never content with our setup....so im sure a year or two in i will start hoarding parts for a turbo build. the e85 products and boost ready programmable fuel injection throttle body kits are down in price and up in quality so that will help!
    heres mine in the driveway with N/A setup
