Thanks for the warm welcome! I've previously been to Barry's site and he's definitely got the complete toybox!! Just wish I had enough cash laying around to hit "Order Now" about fifteen times....I figured the target would be a bit high with the stock heads and rods but I'd like to see how close I can get with the stock crank. I'll probably be bugging you guys for some time to come since I've got three of these blocks laying around and would like to build 'em all. Possibly build one with the stock iron to the safest level, sell it and move on to the next one? I only need the one FE for my personal ride...Actually "need" is a bit of a stretch since the car has a perfectly healthy 289 in it but....I've got a storage building that needs cleaning out and I just don't see any sense in letting this stuff go to waste. A couple of 351 Clevelands, some complete 302's and a 429 as well. I'm trying to switch from "acquisition" mode to "make it run-make it gone" mode.
