    I was thinking an FE in the west...like Dave found out with his built motor in an M725 last year in Colorado...

    Make sure to get a Ford closed loop or an aftermarket - chebby's open loop doesn't self adjust too well.
    Actually I haven't taken one to altitude, just my experience with bolt on mods w/o re-flashing the prog.

    I dont plan on going above 4000 feet anytime soon. I should be good for a while.

    I would love to go with EFI but all the bolt on kits I have seen are only good up to 600 hp and I will be maxing it out.

    I got to play with my 715 a little on my last R&R. I got annoyed and packed everything up when I got all the parts together and started on the pinion brakes and the caliper brackets I got from ebay didnt fit. I packed everything back up and went on with my vacation. I am just going to get some disc brakes that bolt to the hubs. Here are a few pictures of the very little progress I made. I got the speedo in and have my seats in place but not mounted firm.

    I did a little research on a fuel injection system and found one from F.A.S.T that works up to 1000 hp. I am going with a world products merlin III big bore block that will give me 540 ci so shooting for the 700+ hp and tq.
