    One is enough thanks:cool:. I still have enough leftovers to build another one I think......
     
  2. Yeah, unless that first block has other issues that preclude it that broken corner is fixable ;)

    Doesn't matter. It's cheap therapy.

    Nice build Lumpy 63!!

    Regarding the engine build in Hot Rod: too bad they didn't post any follow-up after the build. I'm very interested in the new Stromberg Big97 carbs/Offenhauser manifold combination that was used on the build. Has anyone here installed and driven this new carb/manifold combination on a Cadillac 365 or 390? I'm glad Offenhauser finally released this Tri-Power manifold.

    Thanks @Roothawg! I've been away from this site for quite a while. I'll have to get acquainted with who is who again

    It's a beautiful day here in the Chicagoland area......I found myself poking around under the hood of my '56 Coupe DeVille and getting some inspiration.
