Anchor chain and rope would be a good start

The ford pickup coil will work with a GM HEI 4 pin module.

If I offended the new guy I apologize, I have an opinion and I share it perhaps to freely. If you're not spending a lot of cubic dollars a Ford 2.0 will work but $$$/ lbs they are worth more for scrap. Heavy and under powered. But again if your just starting out its better than foot power

Hi Jasone,
Where are you located?
I can't help with your running.
I do have some parts that I would like to get rid of for a 2.0 pinto.
I have a rebuild kit, piston, rods, rings, bearings, crank and misc. stuff. (I think its .030 over)
Also a 2 into 4 intake. All cheep, like you pay the shipping plus $20. and its yours. (Storage Fee :lol: )
I think I've had it since 1980 and its been taking up room for to long.
Norm
