I was running an edelbrock 1405 600cfm carb, seemed to run alright at the time. I now have efi.
If I were you I'd consider moving. I like all those cars, but I'd get rid of the mustang 2.
What would you consider a low gear? I'm going to be swapping to a 3.00 or a 3.25, I'm probably making at least 450rwhp currently.

PFM???? Maybe it measures the distance from the front and rear tires, or front the front tires to the laser.
