Blow by Blow plans.

Heads are now C8AE-Hs so I need to see what the specs are. If not good I am going to go after some older 352 or 406 heads.
427 Exhaust valves Manley Severe Duty Series Stainless Steel Valves
Valves, Exhaust, Stainless Steel, 1.750 in. Diameter, Ford, Big Block, FE, Set of 8
427 intake valves Manley Severe Duty Series Stainless Steel Valves
Valves, Intake, Stainless Steel, 2.250 in. Diameter, Ford, Big Block, FE, Set of 8

Roller Rockers with Hydraulic Power Beast Cam from Crower.
D3TE Block
Custom Crank and Rods from Crower.

I haven't decided whose pistons yet since with the special rod length the Piston pin placement has to move. I have had great luck in Drag racing FEs with Arias but in my Desert racers I used TRWs.

Zoom Clutch 11" , Overdrive in front of my NP435.

This is why I cut the fenders off and ground the bolt heads off.

This is why I have to move it already. The garage is not big enough.

Yeah, I see that, but I now am the proud owner of a chincy tow bar I had to purchase when I got there. I had called made all the arrangements it was all good till I spent a small fortune in fuel to get there. :x ..I think I have had my last dealing w/U-Haul..I think I said that before and used Penske. Live & learn..sometimes :lol: :lol: Not gonna let those $@#$# ruin any more of my good nature :D

If i'm not mistaken i think they were cast in mexico in the 70's like 360's mainly?? I got a 75' 360 105 block along with my 250 when i bought it.
