69grandecj 0 Report post Posted July 4, 2010 I've owned my SportsRoof since 1983 and it has been kept relatively stock with the 302 2V. Since now the Grande is the show piece and SportsRoof has a 25 year old paint job I want to make it a driver with a little more go. Recently I had the intake manifold swapped with a vintage C9 aluminum intake (like the Shelby) and added repro CS Shelby valve covers. Have to change the heater core now since moving the heater hoses caused the connector to crack under the dash thus the bypass hose. Here are the before and after photos. Looks like I'm going to need to remove some stuff and repaint this winter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
