1964 Ford Galaxie Race Car idling at 1000 rpm.

Idled for 15 minutes without heating issues to check on pressure , leaks etc. Race coming up this weekend and it needs to handle the staging lines burnouts etc without stalling or overheating. Seems to do fine now .
532" , 12,0:1 comp ratio , Edelbrock VIC Jr heads ..... POWERFUL !

I bought it like this and the combo works really well . Johnny Winters Ultra Bell works as an adapter. The front section of the TH400 hosing was sawed off and the converter housing is bolted to the oilpump.
