I just picked up my motor last night and thought I would post a picture of it. Not too bad for a junk yard motor.

Aha! Is THAT a truck block? cuz it looks like the notch in the chamber is much bigger than the one in mine.

It has been a learning experience. Quite a bit different that the Pontiac engines. I've just try to take it one step at a time, and your right know the real fun begins. Should have my heads next week, 333 heads with 2.19/1.72 valves.:D
