The engine is in. I modified the original right engine bracket as the 292 mount is shorter, higher, and mounted on the forward set of holes. It runs and drives but I am trying to find a shop to do the exhaust. The exhaust/muffler shop I usually use won't work outside on their big lift until it is above freezing (March or April).

For anyone who is interested, I'd be happy to pass along information on the build (part numbers, modifications, etc.).

Out with the .060" over 292 with heavy wrist pin scoring on #3 cylinder, in with the roller cammed 383. Should be about 2.5 times the hp and 1.5+ times the torque.
