Yes...kinda...

I had a low mileage, stock '78 Corvette 350 short block that I added fresh Vortec -062 heads and a new, take out GM 350 HO flat tappet cam & lifters.
CR worked out to 9.4
Topped it off with a re-curved HEI, an Edelbrock RPM intake and the new style Street Demon 625 carb.
VERY crisp throttle response!!

I'm a cheapskate so I'm going to use some Elmer's Wood putty and paint it yellow.

Indirectly...
We're installing that 6.0L I bought into my buddy's '55 Chevy.

Spent about an hour cleaning up oil under mine took it out for a 10 mile drive and looks like the left valve cover is leaking. Need to find some valve covers that fit better then these after market ones. I have my originals but are in bad shape. Any suggestions on how to keep this from leaking?

Ken your car got lowered mine got raised. Lol

Ray, could you clean it up real good and use some red or black RTV or maybe some Indian Head Shellac on both side of the gasket?
