Like new Tekton 1/2" drive torque wrench. 25-250 ft-lbs. Part number 24340. I've only used this one once but I'm getting rid of tools I have more than two of to prepare for a move.
Located in West Sacramento - $30 plus shipping or local pick up. PM me for a shipping quote.
For my build, I was recommended something in the 260's @ .050 and around 0.650" lift, so similar to yours. I've got a Victor 383 intake and a few 4150 carbs to choose from (2 different 950's and an old school Holley 4781 850).
Those are the same ones I'll likely go with, only on a 6" wheel. Good looking combo.

Birdsong's cutaway of those green bearings makes them seem pretty pathetic. I'd have expected to see more bearings in that space. I've never had an issue running them, but I'll sure give it some thought next time.
No, not even close.
When I measured for driveshafts on my 68 and 66 Darts, both only showed about 1/8" - 3/16" difference from full compression to full droop.
Most driveshaft shops will have you insert the yoke all the way in until it stops, take a centerline measurement on front and rear...
I'm thinking it wasn't zeroed out. Look closely at the scale. The Mancini one looks to be close to 150mm, whereas the original looks to be maybe 146mm. Not sure what's up with the LCD display.
