    Ijust got my Comet in a Trade and now it's time to fix her up my way. I have a Holley 670 and a Parker Funnel Web intake on its way. I'm changing the interior to black and new paint coming soon

    Man, I LOVE Monterrey!!! Pics with some scenic backgrounds would be cool!

    You might need to hit a 10 post count before you can add pics. There are rules like that on here, but not sure if that is one. So venture around and make some comments, and try it again.

    I got to go out there for work a couple years ago. No car, so everything I was traveling with was on my back. Did lots of walking around and hiking.

    Are your hooker headers a tight fit or not bad to install? My mustang headers were a pain in the arse!!!

    Welcome to the board. Hooker 6901's are what I have also. They have to go in from underneath, car raised as high as safely possible. Passenger side will go in and then the drivers side needs to have the motor mount bolt removed and the engine raised a few inches. Also if you have column shift or power steering you need to do a search about them.:Welcome:
