This lives near Syracuse. He’s built some neat stuff. I was checking out his 1963 Falcon tonight. It used to have a blower. Then it had two turbos. Now it has two bigger turbos. You can see pictures of the blower and first turbo setup at [www.forcedpsi.com](http://www.forcedpsi.com) Here is what it looks like now ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v67/bigdannyk66/falcon1963-1.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v67/bigdannyk66/falcon1963-1.jpg) 604 CID Ford Twin garrets, I don’t know what size but they the air cleaners are held on with six inch clamps. The compressor housings are probably about 12 inches in diameter, maybe a little bigger. Intercooler in the back seat, cold water setup I think. 7000 rpm rev limit. He claims 2,000 hp, I believe it. ---

[quote=“Pass McGrass,post:5,topic:34279"”] That’s crazy. How much do Falcons weight? [/quote] Less than a Mustang IIRC. About 2900 - 3000 lbs, this one’s probably a bit heavier due to the turbos you could lose a hobo in. Hot shit :tup: ---

he said it weights around 3500. He said he never built it to be light so it has a heavy frame and cage. ---

With 2000 ponies, what’s five hundred lbs between friends. 😛
