Where is everyone #5

Um, NO!
These are 4x4’ cut to 4 inch lengths.

That’s a hard pass... sorry boys we gotta unload them.

Are you building the engine right now?
I wonder if there is a way to fill the block between the lower skirt and cylinders like the later blocks. Just for added integrity and block stiffness.

 

As long as we don't call it Rod Chucker!

 

Just dropped it off at the machine shop about 3 hours ago. Getting the crank and cam cleaned/polished and the block hot tanked, decked, cam bearings installed. Getting the spacer plate cleaned up too. If its shot I'll replace it though.

 

Fill the block? Can it be done like later blocks?

 

No idea. Not really going for a powerhouse. 375-400 hp through a single rear axle would probably pull a 12k lb RV better than any pickup truck lol.

 

Started digging into the 68 bird. Been resting for the last 30 years

 

I was just thinking overbuilt under power if possible.

 

I gotta tell ya. The ocean stinks over here.

Wichita bound.
