    Assuming that hood is covering up more than the 2.3 anymore. So your not wasting time posting engine details in the thread, but you will PM a couple of people about it. Doesn't that take more time????

    In the case I keep the car I'd rather not have my build details out in the open

    I'm officially unemployed now. Can't afford to keep it and finish it the way I would like, so I'd rather see it go to someone who can enjoy it.

    Thanks bro, I wish I could keep it but funds are tight, and I start back at school in August and definitely can't afford it then.

    466 BBF huh?

    I'm not going to lie that surprises me. I was thining it was a stroked 351 or 302. Never even thought about a 460 swap. Badass car though. Good luck with the sale. I know it will suck to have to see it go though.

    If it does sell you have to disclose what times it ran to me though. lol

    Took 2 pictures today while in the process of getting the timing cover gasket replaced, it had a tiny leak I wanted to take care of before selling the car. As of tomorrow it will have a fresh oil change, new timing cover gasket, and new plugs.


    Pics (carpet is not stained/dirty just the bad picture):

    Car has a VERY (And I do stress very) minor oil leak from the rear main seal now. I don't know if its just where it has sat for so long or what, but I've ran a tank and a half of gas (20 gallon cell) out of it and it hasn't even moved on the dipstick. Only way to notice is occasionally when you stop it leaves a little quarter sized spot of oil, but it rarely does that. Just figured that since I noticed it I would update the thread.
