Hey Al,
If you want to swing by, I'm off 10 about 5 miles. Closer to the Louisiana line, 15 miles or so, than the Bama line. Just call at anytime, (405)788-7445.
I would shoot ya a better deal if you picked it up.
This was my dad's project. He got out of cars and put more mone into land and tractors. He doesn't own an old car anymore, except for a 383 RR thats beat.
I am building a blown 408 and don't need it, but I need machine shop money.
The engine is disassembled but most everything is there but heads, ignition, timing chain, some bolts and stuff. I didn't get any heads from my dad but I do have some 71 360 heads I'll throw in.
Everything is basicly how I picked it up from dad. The crank has a tag from the machine shop that says 340 .010/.010. I don't know what year the crank is if it isn't the original. I doubt my dad would even remember, he's got CRS syndrome. I have it and I'm 27, I know he's got it bad.
To be on the safe side I would definately mic it (as always), and do ARP rod bolts.
Oh, I do believe pops said the compression was to be 8.5:1.
I am motivated to sell because I want to get my engine done before I go to the middle east for what I hope to be my last deployment in Feb. and I will be on an excercise almost all of Oct. so thats four months or so I'll have to get the 'cuda rollin. It's gonna be close.
