    I'll have to check out your site... I'm building a 341 and I want to back it up with an A833.

    Just bought back an old 241 that I picked up years ago. Going in a roaster that I have yet to find.

    I've been running a 291 for 20 some years in my 40 coupe and have no complaints. It runs at 150 degrees in any traffic. Went to hot heads hemi for a rebuild kit, 727 trans adapter, 4bl intake, headers, and modified cam for chevy water pump adapter. It's not a ground pounder, parts are high, in the end its a great, dependable motor.

    I've got a 56 330 out in the shed that I took in trade 30 something years ago that I should find a new home for but it no doubt needs a complete rebuild now.
