I'll be talking to the owner later this week, so I'll see what I can find out. As I didn't build it. I just get to put it in. and fire it up

Thanks Ken 
And on a side note, today went well.
And with no issues it should be be back in the chassis early next week.
All the clutch components are in. Scattershield was already doweled so I didn't have to worry about dialing it in. And it's now painted and installed with all new grade 8 hardware, and I even remembered to put the block saver on.
Got the trans stripped and painted today. So it will be connected tomorrow afternoon.
Nobody had header gaskets for a big block mopar on hand.so they should be in in the am. But all in all , today was good day.

Trans was all scratched up and painted hemi orange. Which just blends on against the Vitamin C Orange floor pans.
So, it went from this,,,,,,,,

Hit a little snaffu, Turns out the water pump housing is a 69 and older casting, with the heater hose nipples being the same 5/8" size. Car is a 1970 and thus requires a one at 1/2" and one at 5/8"

Over 700 HP? Cool. I wish my 496 made that much HP.
Wow.
