I may put my fifteen year old "ugly son" in charge of this one ... It might be time he learned a thing or two


This is all "Left Overs" I couldn't see giving away ...

I already have much of what I need to get the short block together ...

Need to select a nice Torquey Hydraulic Roller Cam ...

Will end up with a set of Aluminum Heads (most likely Edelbrock) ...

Compression should show up a little over 10.0:1 (no real calculations yet) ... I just got the block back from Fultz's Machine Shop yesterday (Dan at Fultz's machines all my motors, then I put them together).

Hoping to set it behind a Five or Six Speed Manual Tranny in a Cobra Kit Car.

Time will tell ...

Looks like I might could use some help here folks ...

Medium size story here:

I took this motor to the machine shop over two years ago ... NO RUSH

In the end when we/I was ready to get it out of the shop ... My two bolt main "Block" was MISSING ...

Somehow it disappeared from the Machine Shop in the extended time it was there ... end result: Dan swapped me his "closet" four bolt main cap Cleveland block (minus the main cap bolts) to replace my "Lost Block."

This motor will be rather mild in it's build dynamics and final use ... So I should be fine with factory cap bolts ...

If anyone out there has switched to ARP Bolts or Studs or some other aftermarket fasteners and has a set of Factory Main Cap bolts for the Cleveland left over ... I'd gladly buy them from you for a reasonable/low price ... otherwise I will be buying a set of new ARP bolts ...

My thought being ... If you have them I'll send you $30.00 and you send me the bolts, should be possible to send them in a Flat Rate Priority Mail envelope for $4.05 ... leaving you with $25.00 profit ... and to beat that I really only need the TEN OUTER SMALL BOLTS ... even easier to ship.

If Admin sees this as too "Self Serving" to be posting here please feel free to delete the thread if you choose
