When you reply, below the text box you are typing in is a "switch to full reply screen" box. Click on that. In the full reply screen, below the text box is "file manager" click on that. Now hit the "browse" box. It should take you to your pics. Select the pic, then click "add file"
"use it 'till it breaks, replace as needed"

THANKS GUYS!!! I will check it out tonight at home. Does each pic, or group of pics have to be in a separate "file"? With Ebay or Craigslist, I can just grab each pic and attach it. What TRENDZ is saying sounds like the Ebay/Craigs set-up?? Thanks again everyone!! I will get it one way or another... You can add a few pics together(base on size) you do it like Trendz said but just click the add button.. then click done

That is an exact twin to my motor when I got it. Be interesting to see the number stamped into it, I'm betting its close to mine. Agree with the above, Ford main 9" deck 6" rod 1.88 to 2.0 rod journal Chev rear crank flange That's just my guess, could be anything..... Full of good stuff if you are willing to put effort into making it work and fit your application, make headers, I converted the rear flange to mopar specs besides the bolt pattern on mine, just all takes thought and work, etc,etc

If you've got room for the dry sump system, it's not going to be an issue. Going to a traditional wet sump system will require a complete tear down and drilling the block and main cap. Otherwise a new oil pan and single stage external pump will be much easier.
It will have a lot of good parts in it, from memory those engines were 9:1, the camshaft isn't too crazy, but featured a bit of duration @0.050" (typically around 270-280 @0.050" on a 108 lobe centre). Chances are it will have Jesel dogbone or tie bar lifters. If you're running an auto trans, it will want a decent converter (5K plus i'd imagine)
Best of luck with it
