Blimey, that takes me back, same combo I used in my first ever build. The pinto is quite tuneable and with those carbies on there 160 BHP is quite acheivable with a decent fast road cam. I got lucky with mine, I found a big valve head in a scrappy, it did go rather well with that on
Yours looks nice and clean, it will look most pleasant in your roadster.
