    I have 2 348 block. Really want to run 409 block because of the larger bore size. The heads I have will flow better on a larger bore.

    Scott-

    I finally got to see the video and hats off to you, that was well played.

    It makes me wonder if that was time well spent since you have a lot of work to do. Right, you have a ton of bondo to still pull out of that car and I think you still have a bunch of more engine work to do on that three-forty-sev (wait...I almost forgot, you want people to think it is a 289)....

    You probably spent 4 hours making the video...time to get to work on the car son!

  29. Now I can't stop laughing...
