I put mine back to stock with the OE carb and exhaust manifolds. It was no fun to drive. Couldn’t get out of its own way. Ford put out a service bulletin to change the OE carb due to customer complaints. OE exhaust manifold were way too restrictive.

And terrible exhaust too...

This was a known car in the Boss circles. Was offered a while back for a lot more than the auction close price. Cool car just may need an engine rebuild.
