Hello, yes I just retired from the business after 51 years. I've run my course now that I don't want to tour the local scene isn't for me. thanx Doc.

Hey Gort I thought I messaged you back. Ya it is amazing weather here as well. Drove the car home from a friends house today with the windows open. Scamp turns heads that's for sure!!

whats your schedule like you very busy ?
maybe we can arrange a meeting

Allen did you get the casting numbers off the block?/crank when you removed the head's did you notice any number's on the top of the pistons? like 0.10,0.20,

My email is allenknotts@hotmail.com

The odometer had 73000 miles on it and I am assumimng that is probably right. The car sat in a junkyard for awhile and a freind of mine drug it home about 15 years ago and it sat in his garage since then. I got it from him 18 months ago and started tearing it apart. I have a bunch of pick I will email you when I get your address.
The engine is completely torn down and looks pretty good.
I has a set of 1 3/4" headers I am hoping to reuse
An edlebrock torker 11 aluminum intake and edlebrock 600cfm carb that probably needs to go.
I did look at all the casting numbers and the crank numbers show it came out of model a couple of years newer? not sure that will matter.

From what I have been reding the "302" casting heads with the heart shape should be a good match to give some more power, but I am open to any suggestions. I need all the help I can get.

I absolutely need suggestions, the more I read the more confused I become. Any suggestions are more than welcome. I need to get this build started in the next couple of weeks, at least the machine work if nothing else. I have never built a motor before so alot of the info goes right over my head so I may become a pain in the a** with dumb questions.

Hi
Did you get the email with the link to the cam info on Cuda-challenger I sent ?

Gorts 5th the 76 Dodge Tradesman 100 is for sale I have way too many vehicles and not enough money. It is originally from Arizona so it is very solid. It is a 318 automatic with 74,000 original miles. Four new tires , new waterpump, new ball joints, and I just had new exhaust manifold gaskets installed. It goes down the road straight and is fun to drive. I do not know the gear ratio . Being from Arizona it must be high because it dies on the hills up here in Pa. If you are interested or know of somone who might be please call me at (570)470-2560 or e-mail spiderweber66@yahoo.com I am asking $3250.00 for it Thanks Steve
