factorybrook Wrench Fetcher F Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 100 Adirondack Mtns	Well this week I started the ground-up restoration of my '53 3100 w/261 4spd... I'm looking at making it like a restorod, dropped a little, front discs on stock susp., warmed-over 261, T-5, and 3.55 rear. Any suggestions on the 261? I know I want dual intake and Fentons and I want it to have manners, not a lumpy idle... Andy A man is like an old truck... He will rust out before he wears out...
