This one won't go to the dyno. Hopefully, one of both of these will go. #69 should be very similar to yours but with a Isky270HL and Air Gap intake. Should be interesting to compare. 69. Jeep360: New one in to build. Needs more power 70. BS360: Budget 360 with 343 pistons.

Updates: 68. BE390: Oil pan looks pretty good on the outside... Not so good on the inside... It amazes me the amout of times I see a over-torqued cam bolt. Idiots.. SA Gear timing set. had to do the normal corrections. The washer face on these ARP rod nuts are too large to fit on the 390 Con Rod. They tweeked the rod caps enough that the rods had to be re-sized. Chuck chamfered all of the rod nuts so that they fit. Short block together!

javtwotone - Yea, I will need it this Friday Reb - Will do! 68. BE390Mess: Well, if you have a oil leak just tighten the pan bolts until you break through the steel I guess. Geeze, this is a first. Farmguy3 got it fixed up. I hope to bolt it on tonight...

Yeah, that was a first for me too! I probably wouldn't have thought it possible, if it had ever occurred to me in the first place. Live and learn I guess...

Progress: 68. BE390Mess: Short block together, ready for the intake. Here is a shot of the old internal oil line vs the one I made. No more kinks! Nice powder coating job in the intake thanks to javtwotone.

^It looks like the extra angle joint on your fitting will also remove most of the tension on the new line.

Just because I don't have any money, and no place to keep the car at home, I can't believe my 383 isn't even on the list anymore....

This is a bit off topic but have any of you seen a flywheel without a part number? SC397 I saw some pictures you posted on the FSJ forum and it looks exactly like the 360 you posted. But no part number. Thanks.
