Well the boat is pretty much finished now for all intents and purposes. I am getting a new motor next month. I just put all new seals in the outdrive and pressure tested it. So I been sitting on my hands bored.
I built a 327 and used my cars original crank in it. It has solid lifters and a Z-28 cross ram intake. Then the car was looking so good I wanted to do a big block. Back then it didn't matter I would be doing bodywork for 10 years.
Anywho I talked to my brother that old motor is on the stand still in his garage. He talked me into it. It is coming home and i gonna put it in the car. At least it will run and run good. It has a silly solid lifter cam like I liked in my youth. But it will sound wicked as all get out.
I miss working on the chev. I need to get a can of orange paint and get to polishing on this intake. I got to rebuild the carbs and make linkages. we got places to go and people to see.
