Well.... with a lot of help from Fred at MAX MERRITT I got the needed parts for the machinist to take the stock block to the 3.5 bore. and.....
I needed 2 replacement rods due to loose pin holes in the rods.

I "did not read all the notes about rod to crank bearings" so had 4 of the original rods opened .020 to take late model .010 over sized bearings.
Trued the head, added hardened seats and had valves ground to match.

Had the cam reground byhttp://www.deltacam.com/

The crank trued by
Custom Crankshaft,4319 A St, Tacoma, WA 98418
(253) 476-4431

As mentioned earlier had the Trans rebuilt by
TRANSMISSION EXCHANGE COhttp://txchange.com/main.htm


Now comes the fun of remembering where all the pieces and nuts/bolts are and get it reassembled .

Of course as all projects that sit for 9 months I'll need to remove all the crap that has collected around the car.... :)
More to follow
