I dropped the block and crank off at the machine shop this week. Should here from them the first part of next week. They are going to let me know what it takes to clean up the bores so I can get the pistons. Then he's going to finish hone to the piston manufactures specs. The crank looks good, but is going to get a polishing for good measures. Tim Meyer from TMI is hooking me up with a pair of Aussie heads and match 0 deck quench pistons. This set up gives 9.5:1, a little higher then I wanted, but will run on pump gas because of the matching head to piston design. I did pick up a Saginaw pump and bracket off of an '80 Ford van with a 351M. I love these pumps. Later on I may want to swap the vacuum brakes for hydros.
