Hello Frank:
I modified a Bronco,

So do I, but mine not very modified.

removing the 170 CI six cyclender and installing a 302 V8,

Mine is a stock 2 barrel 302, now has 86,000 miles

during the 70's and did business with Bill Stroup Racing in Long Beach Ca.

Hey, mine is a Baja Stroppe, made in April 1973.

Dear ol Dad called them up and asked what could be done to improve the
horse power in his truck as the 292 Y Block wouldn't do wheel stands and
left him in the slow lane way too long. So Dad installed a Lincoln 430
with the automatic tranny.

LOL!!! A C4 trans no doubt.

WOW! what a difference. We had to replace the 4:11 gears and the read end
to a 3/4 ton rear end, and 3:73 gears. The Palomar 150 Tube amp made a
high pitched noise due to the high out put alternator, Biiitcheeeen!

Yeah, they only came with a 45 amp alt, not enough for
the Bronco, let alone a good amp. I put a 200 amp alt &
dual batts in my Bronco.
