    tore down the motor today...had one bent pushrod that fell out of the lifter bore and didn't break anything and an intake valve left open from the cam let a little rain in,not frozen at all.hopefully i'll be mocking everything up soon with the c6 attached and see how it settles into the 51'

    Wow! So is that bore salvageable?

    tim meyer pistons,angle mill the heads since i would have to use spacer plates to use a 351c intake i can take up the angle difference in the spacer and leave the manifold as is and i'm gonna throw in as much cam as the heads and piston to valve clearance will allow....and i heard that my 2v heads can take the big 2.19/1.71 4v valves,,,i'll see how that pans out.
