My 1450 is getting a 341AQS
I picked up a wide block 341 out of a Ford(Jacobsen) last Fall. It got a bore job and a new .020 piston. The oil pan hit the front crossmember so I cut the crossmember out and lowered it about 3/8 of an inch. So far I have done the trunnion repair, gone through the steering column and rebuilt the badly damaged dash. This afternoon I dropped the engine in and it clears the crossmember nicely. I am giving the paint a freshening as I go with spray cans. The white is Van Sickle and the yellow is now Majic. It is a richer yellow than the Valspar I started out with. Got to hurry and get this finished as there are two 482's coming next month.
