Guy who did the heads did the angles wrong on the studs
so put a shaft system on it now

Problem is I only have 14 as two broke due to the studs
Very pricey new $600-$800 plus

Will let them go for $80 and pay for the ride if in the lower 48 states

This sounds good - just need to figure out the exact part/part number so I can look up availability of individual ones to finish out the set. Don't know if these will fit under the valve covers yet then either.

Will check if rockers have any parts numbers
Motor was a build in a Popular Hot Rodding article
It may have some info. Builder is long gone

I've got an hei with an accel cap/coil and some 8.8 wires, can't remember what they are off top of my head. Also, I'm 30min north of you in Normal. Got a 454 short block, few sets of heads, etc. I might be willing to get rid of.

Ok yella terra rockers are 1.7 one valve and
1.75 on the other. Each pair has a number on
the 1.75 side. I have 2,3,4,5,8 and one without
a number that I believe is #1 because I know
#7 is where I had a problem

Might have to get one more tie bar as it looks

I have a bell housing that allows you to mount a T-56 to a big or small block. Never used, in new condition.

I also have a set of L-88 aluminum heads, needs some repair, but a good aluminum welder can repair them.

I have the stock LT1 bellhousing that is my understanding I can bolt to the Mark IV BB and use the conversion flywheel - then keep all the other LT1 stuff...

I'm curious about what you have here...and also the heads.

Thanks for the checking on the rockers...the motor I bought from badbu68 came with a set of full rollers...not the type you have...but it looks like these will be good to go.

I've ordered a comp cam retro roller conversion...that will take care of the valvetrain. I have the closed chambered heads from badbu68 at the shop with the open chamber heads (781 castings) that I already head...(they are in bad bad shape) and am waiting to see if he can transfer the goodies from the 390 castings over...The pistons in the short block are domed and only work with open chambers. "IF" this comes together, it will make a nice neat package with the cam we selected. Full roller - no oil/zinc issues.

Still looking for:

high volume oil pump (if anybody had a new one in the box still)
Carb???? Probably going to go carb for now and switch to EFI later
short leg water pump accessory/pulley system

Thanks to you guys that were able to hook us up with some stuff - it is officially running.

I just posted this vid on my build page...but putting here for you guys to recognize some of the parts.
