Re: Project Junk Yard Dog
It's a 70 2 bolt 350 . Nice crank and standard bore . A good place to start. Bob

Re: Project Junk Yard Dog
Just happy to get started on a new one !! I think I'm done being pi$$ed at the other engine since I sold the short block or what was left of it last week . Now I can focus on getting this one together and drive my truck again !! Bob
