Good luck Travis! It'll be a FUN ride when you're done! Just build it right like Ray did his 419 and it'll be more reliable than stock.

Correct on the bore. More then enough?
It will be right because it is coming out of the same garage

Gotcha...thanks for the info. I was assuming that he was buying a new short block like Ray did. 404 would be the way to go then... Should be a beast!!!

I received an estimate from Livernois. They are shipping it to us. Michigan sales tax is more than the shipping charges.
Rest in Peace Charlie!
