WOW!!! Bluebird, that is a sweet setup you have. Can you tell me a little about yours? HP, torque, cam? I dont know all the specs on mine yet as the builder and I are still working out the plan, but I know it will be bored the .030 or .035 which ever is required for the 4.250 Stroke for a 462 or 463 ci and all forged parts and going to use the scorpion endurance rockers so I can hopefully use my stock chrome valve covers since they are suppose to be shorter for that purpose. Looks like I am going to go with some "E" alumn round port CNC chambered heads. The cam will be a custom grind Hyd roller, but I dont know any of the specs yet from the builder except the operating range will be about 1500 - 5800 RPM's. I wont be using my throttle bracket as I stopped using that when I switched over to a 2004R OD tranny last year. I have a lokar throttle and bracket set up which should still work as it bolts up to the carb bolts. I am also interested in your Radiator overflow tube/bottle, whatever it is. What is it and how is it mounted? Wouls like to see some closer pics of that if possible.
