Hey Keith
It was great talking to you last night....... It's to bad that I'll be away for the big show in Cloverdale and won't get a chance to meet you........ maybe next time though.
The 348 in Cache Creek is spoken for.... The have to wait until the high water goes down for the guy to get it. It's out in a field in a dump truck and they can't get to it right now. Someone named Barry from PG has bought it. It is definately a 348 though it's a 355 casting number.

The word out there is a guy just got 4 engines here on the island. He got one truck 409 and 3 car 409s QA blocks with 3 sets of 690s some other hypo heads as well 2 x4 intakes and a whole pile of 409 chevrolet car nos parts. He paid about 10k for the lot. The man who had them had been collecting them for over 20 years. Any way he is selling some stuff off soon I hear. I will keep ya all informed. I am going to find out this weekend if he has a low hp alluminum intake for my 348. Take care John
