Early 1968 390 Block @ .040 (good sonic check)

9.9 to 1 comp

Piston to deck clearance is +.002 (was shooting for .000)

Decks squared, final hone w plates etc

1U Crank

BBM Heads (flow numbers in another post)

Pretty much as in pics the obvious Perf RPM intake

Quick Fuel HR 780 carb (do not like the shiny finish but they would not do in black

1 3/4" Truck Headers

Special Grind flat tappet hydraulic cam, stock rockers

No "tricks" just careful assy

It would be nice to send up to Jay B for a dyno session . . . That way the numbers will be accurate. Not much for dyno here that I trust.

I really wanted to drop it in this truck:

That would probably be a good thing to remember . .

I had not "primed" the system yet and it was photo time . .

Now that I have verified good oil pressure with the cordless (75 psi) & also everything is getting oil up top, I can put them on! LOL

You could ship it to me, and I'd be happy to dyno it, but right now I am just starting in on the Drag Week thrash for the year, so I wouldn't be able to touch it for a few months.  But if you are planning on waiting that long to install it, I'd be happy to dyno it.  I love dynoing FEs  :D

I do all my own distributors, always have except for once. That did not go well so I started doing my own again.
