This site is still not user friendly. I clicked on post all pics full size and it posted thumbnails. I even tried editing, still no luck.
[ATTACH] Moonlighter update, Gene is hard at work on his "good" engine. It is going to be a FE of course. I will post a few pics to show the progress.
There will be some more pics, I have a few ideas already and that is one I would like to do.

Gene actually got 468 ci with a std. bore and a +.375 stroke. You could bore it .06 (need to sonic test) and get 480 ci.
Gene used to run a FE bored and stroked to 468. I'll wager that Gene would love to run under the index at least 1 time. I'll have to ask him about...
I believe Gene said it was a car show in Greenville, SC.

He has most of the parts. Last year, he said he needed some pistons.
Gene used to run a 468, that's why you see 468 on his car. He has said he would like to build a tunnel port, but I'm hoping for a cammer. Who...
Gene and Melvin did make a few changes. The Moonlighter has a spool for the 1st time ever and some new gears in the old 9 inch, 5.14's.
