Glad to see that you started again. You are my hero. Every time I see that motor it takes me back to when I was 15 or 16 and I think hotrod did an article on it. There was carb on it, but the block was yellow with all that chrome. I have never wanted something so bad in my life. I ordered the litature on it and was broken hearted...$3500 for the kit. I believe the year was 1981. I wanted to put it in my 78 vette, but I had only paid $8000 for a 3 year old car used with 22,000 miles.

Thanks for living my dream. I get a ride next year on the power tour. Maybe we can switch cars for a leg of the trip.
