As long as there's no taper you could order up a set of Ross pistons like B&S suggested and be the better off, I'd think. If they need bored I...
This gentleman has a pretty nice stash of 55-57 Fords and a bit of other stuff, an old fashioned yard. His name is Dave.
I've come back several times today to look at your block. That is ART in my book.
Yes! Checked that this morning. I moved a year ago, no clue where the dial calipers are because I'm seemingly never home except to sleep.
Thank you for those, especially that second one, great resource.
Finally got time to pull a head. 3¾ stroke
Thanks! The bit I had seen suggested the Mercury heads had 81M and trucks 81T. Looks like I need to pop a head. Work is going to be in the way...
Looking around at various info online I'm guessing this is a 39-41 truck motor but I'd appreciate any help from the many here that know a lot more...
I have had the thought that IF I was going to build a SBC the 302 would be cool just for the sake of being different. Enginemasters I think did...
Haha, as usual Hack's project looks really interesting. It must be nice to get to complete a project occasionally...
Has he ever seen an issue of rod and custom? Seems like there is at least one 39 or 40 per issue. I am having a brain fart, but somebody was...
We gotta start bugging the crap out of them to do the iron ons.

How about some pics of the rest of the car, the ass end looks sharp! Randy
I like the green, looks cool, so does the rest of it. I guess you could paint it chevy orange to see how many people pay attention. Haha...
I am a fan of the BIG ASSED DOG idea. Also the double barrel and the cut off switches. Unfortunately locks mainly just keep honest people honest....
That thing is so cool. Add yet another thing to my want list.
I gotta agree, it looked perfect before, red is getting overdone. The car looks AWESOME either way, man am I envious. Randy
Well, while I am NOT generally a fan of the SBC, I think yours looks cool. As far as I am concerned all three of the major smallblocks can be...
I think you can use some of the fairly large ones from the 70's pickups. Might not be strictly traditional, but should be able to find something...
The 54 is looking good, I like the looks with the doorpost straight better that some I've seen slanted. The "T" is way cool! Randy
I like the way that is coming along. The quarter eliptic springs are a neat idea.
Kinda wish I was still in Pt. Arthur....
That's what I was going to say.
To my way of looking at it, the stuff used traditionally was the best stuff available. Power with 2 stage mastercylinders might not have been...
Positively inspiring!!!!!
Oh, I guess I could come get if that's easier...:D
