( little better than stock , but not much more for a daily driver ).going to have machine work and parts for less than 550. time will tell . will do the cleaning at work ( pressure cabinet ) . 11.00 $ a hole to have cylinders bored and honed . 88.00 $ in machine work . my problem will be my heads ( old style , leaded fuel ) i have a couple sets thts good for 283 . not to big for small bore ( just going .030 over ) to cut for seats or use new valves that is used in place of seats . will finnish on dissassemble and take to have bored monday . cast 2 barrel intake ,canister oil filter and cast hump style manifolds .......... can we say old style and keeping it .
