Need to get around to making the call. I have been working long hours and want to be able to sit down and make the call one time and get all the inside info. I need to do this right.

PS some of the parts I have for sale now have pics. Had time to do that this afternoon.

Call just made.

You would not beleive how many of these have been done already. Off shore boats. BAJA. Dirt track racing. Drag race. Street car with a 446 that now belongs to Kurt Bush. Moparts is in the dark on this one. This is a sleeping Giant.

9.250 deck is the limit
2.500" mains

Should hear back on a trashed block I can get to size some things up soon.

Sounds like most of the people who want these are not MOPAR people. MOPAR people are too tight IMO.

P7 only

The latest version is 340 main bearings but the snout and flywheel flange are different. Don't know about the seals.

It still has the funky bell housing pattern.
