Thanks NinerBikes,
I watched with great anticipation when Geocritter (Steve) was replacing the 460 in his 94 HR.
I'm glad you and others are enjoying my very tiring project. :)
I haven't built a fun engines since the late 60s. Back then I was pit crewing for my neighbors stock car. It was a 56 Ford, 312 "Y" block. We didn't make as much HP as the chebby guys but we handled better.
For 3 years running we finished 1st place on the ΒΌ mile track and 3rd place on the 5/8 track. It became all too time consuming and my family suffered, so I returned to being just a fan in the bleachers.

Wanna hear a sob story? I purchased a supercharged 312 cam, new Paxton blower with all the goodies, brand new heads and a shortblock from Ford. Landlord stole it all in 1968. Came home from Lake Tahoe looked in the empty spare bedroom and it was cleaned out. Jerk demanded a set of keys to the door deadbolts two weeks earlier.
