Looking inside with the bore-scope this motor has the flat top pistons with 4 valve reliefs...
It's probably going into the '68 step side for my Grandson.....it has a healthy 350(I think) now with a stall speed converter...
I don't want to wake it up too much for a 16 year old kid that hasn't had much driving experience....
