427 tall deck motor, Public Service Announcement....
I have no vested interest in this motor or the seller, I just happened to come across it when surfing for parts for a friend in Tennessee. Any of you Tennessee or Kentucky or northern Alabama guys who have an interest in building a tall deck motor should probably go see this one and make an offer....

Here's a DynoSim build I did over on hotrodders.com that might interest you if you see a tall deck in your future....
Most builders will tell you that the adapter plates to use a conventional low deck intake such as an Edelbrock Performer RPM will be a pain in the ***. I don't know, as I've never tried to use them. I'm wondering if you couldn't use epoxy to glue them to the intake, bolt the intake on and let the epoxy set up to make a good seal. Maybe Jerry or Pat will weigh in on that.
