Looks good. She movin yet?

 

Lookin' very clean Josh. I'll have two eggs over easy and an order of toast and bacon to eat off that engine.

 

Yep, she sure is! Edelbrock carb could use some adjustment(s) from someone who knew what they were doing . Other then that, and being a bit louder then I like, she runs great. I just put in a toploader 4 speed too. Needless to say, I am having a blast [sm=gears.gif]

The guy I bought her from told me she had a 302. I was extremely happy to discover when rebuilding that it is actually a 1965 289 and heads, however does have a 302 crank and rods.

Here is what was done on the rebuild:

-Balanced engine
-Bored .030 over
-Deck plated & Finish honed
-Torque plated
-10:1 compression
-Block resurfaced to 0(zero) deck height
-Later model 5.0 cylinders & valves
-Port matched cylinder heads and intake w/ gasket
-Edlebrock 650 carb and performance intake
-Larger intake valves (1.84)
-Performance valve springs
-3 angle cut on valve seats
-Bronze guideliners
-Comp roller-tip rocker arms
-Howard's stage 2 camshaft
-3 piece billet timing set
-Mallory uni-light distributer (no points).
-Aluminum water pump

 

Thanks!
I'm hungry too, think I'll join ya

I can't tell you how long I scrubbed on those valve covers to get them to shine. They still aren't quite done.

 

A labor of love big boy. A labor of love. Good job.
