The good...........heads, valves, cam, lifters are all OK. The bad............the block is going to need a sleeve but, will live. Here's the ugly.......... 6568368-34609-18-10Carnage003.jpg (446 downloads)

My 408 has the Childs track master rods in it, just because I got a screaming deal. Do ya have another crank, I may have one laying around. Kasey

I had a set of W2 heads off of a 340 in a rail that belonged to a fella in Fremont Nebraska. He ran through the traps at 9K, and you could have swore the thing was going to lift off too the moon. Those heads ended up being WAY to big for my set up at the time, and Jesse from Sioux City has them now. He screwed me pretty hard on the J heads I traded for. Kasey
