Thanks for the check-ins and my apologies for going soo silent. I'm working with a miniature touch screen device these days, which is a PITA! Rods showed up and I grabbed my block, crank and pistons from storage. I plan on getting some block work done soon! I need bored, zero-decked (square), then I need to do some measuring so I can mill the pistons down to 11.0:1. In the meantime, I think I'm going to drag another shorty home this weekend. I want to sell the plastic truck I'm driving to free up another $450 / month. She's got a factory 400 that's drinking water. Boy has lots of goodies and I'm thinking a basic internally balanced rotating assembly and some iron heads will do the trick. A much better driver in my opinion! Barbie truck gets 15MPG and is a DOG! Whatchya think for $2500? 1977 Silverado!
