MEL Rocker Arms interchange with those on the FE Engine

You can interchange the MEL rocker arms with those used on Ford FE engines. You can take great advantage of choosing from a wide variety of existing aftermarket rockers for these engines. Someone has to chime in for the rest of the valve assembly. I can't really remember the details. P.S. Off course...

Kultulz, zjaz's interesting. Even if it's not 100 % correct Edsel, it's still quite tasteful and of good craftmanship.

Re: '64 Lincoln Continental with a '66 MEL 462

Well, as for the T-Bird photos I'd like to keep them out from the MEL Forum. If I start posting off pic, everybody will do it and this place will become exhausting to wade through for MEL visitors. I will post them pics maybe as an external link from my sig or so. In the past I didn't have the time ...

Obviously, I drive like a little old lady. :roll: That's a good milage for a car that heavy. On the Autobahn my 390 powered T- Bird at appx. 4400 lbs of weight has a milage of 18,2...

Re: '64 Lincoln Continental with a '66 MEL 462

Great pics Reijer, in 1991 I was in the Merced /Fresno area too. What a beautiful car. Did you know that my 62 T-Bird shares the same windshield? They are exchangeable. I had this matchbox model car when I was 8 years old. We all were still under the influence of the assasination of J.F. His name ne...

Re: My BMW K 1100 RS

What a twisted world. We didn't have snow since a couple of years and the weather got way to warm in winter. Today is the first chilli day since weeks.
