Thanks for taking us for the ride, Ray, great thread too
Personally , I would look at the hydraulic setup from 1980's F250's. I have one, and it has been extremely reliable, uses a slave instead of a...
There are accessory drive parts and kits available, that engine does turn over, right?
Yes, prices for blocks are insane, be glad you don't need a 428 block.
Then the black car A.J. drove in the mid '60's would also be the car Larry Dickson drove in 1968?
Doing a lot of mig welding inside a car or truck will get me occasionally, that old sandy feeling...
Keep the overhead down. If you want to make a TV show with your showpiece shop, good luck. Charge by the hour, unless you're really good at...
What Joe says above. Check the flange where they mount very carefully, that area has to be really nice for skirts to fit.
If you're not familiar with them, you will want to educate yourself on the brake system
Oh man! That's a bummer, hope you're healing up ok, the last time I banged my head I looked like Frankenstein for a few days, and was off (more...

No, you fellows are correct, now I'll have to actually look hard at the '76 engine I have here.
I've had my f250 since 2001, so we are pretty good friends by now. Someone put the stick on stainless panels that were so popular back in 1984, on...
This I remembered late last night after posting, and is another reason to leave them to the resto crowd, along with most 427's. I believe '68...
