hahaha

once the blocks at my house i will post pictures

 

[srtthis]

well first deal fell through on a block... working on another one but im the 2nd guy in line.

guess i should let the cat out the bag now.. seeing how im having trouble getting parts

doing a windsor with 225 high ports on top of it. they are done up by BES that we ran on the turbo car. 58CC. i may spray it... i may turbo it... im that that far yet. still need to find a block again

 

[A5literMan]

Are you looking for a roller block or just any Windsor? Have you been checking corral?

 

[srtthis]

doesnt matter... its going to be a solid roller set up at the end of the day.

i have looked but people want some crazy money for them or they arent local.

I work with someone who has a 84 W. It was rebuilt awhile ago and is cast Pistons,.040 over,flat tappet cam,carb,etc We were talking about it and he would sell complete for 400$ I'm actually contemplating it. If it was standard bore I would have already purchased.

 

[srtthis]

thats a good deal for sure... it would just have to come apart cuz cast pistons will be ashtrays lol

 

[srtthis]

working on a deal for another block now... hopefully this guy doesnt flake out

 

[hoopty5.0]

Good deal. I bought some pistons yesterday for mine. Gonna send the block off next month once i build the car fund back up. Won't get highports, but hopefully something decent.

 

[srtthis]

i gotta figure out what my plan is before i go any further after getting the short block. if it goes turbo it will be different than if i stick with nitrous

 

[srtthis]

Welp the block is now at my buddies house till I can get my engine stand from the shop and start cleaning everything.

Anyone need
351 rods?
Pistons?
crank?
cam?
flexplate?
balancer?

Biggest issue going windsor... the list of parts I can use from my 302 is short

[srtthis]

Haha it will all go up for sale. Not sure if I want to sell it complete or part it out

The only reason I'm going to stay 8.2 based. Besides with forced induction who needs a Windsor. Have you decided on what you're going to build yet? An all motor 400+ cu in,solid roller,etc or 357 w/turbo or ?? If staying 357 based you could keep some of the internals. Obviously with the needed upgrades.

 

[srtthis]

408" after that nope... leaning towards nitrous since I have it already

Hey man, looks like @old_blue could use the rods, pistons and maybe the crank for his truck project..

 

[srtthis]

@old_blue ... message me if you are interested. i should have everything apart by the end of next week .

 

[srtthis]

and before anyone asks... no thats not a crack in the bottom right corner. its the oil drain back hole

 

[A5literMan]

Glad you posted that because it sure looks like a crack in the pic.
