Hi Dave, first off thanks for PM's on brakes. Sorry, for some reason I cannot reply to PM's on this computer. Not sure what happened.
I'm 5 lug x 205mm, so the KG discs won't work, but thanks for thinking of me.

Yep this is Sheep's motor. Can you believe it's this far? Last weekend was a bad time on it, despite the picture. You can't see my look of disgust.

88 x 74, new case, my old DPR welded crank, stock rods, lightly ported single-port heads, 236 x .427" cam (w/ 1.4's), stock 30mm Solex. 010 Bosch, Crown 6lb alum flywheel, Scat deep sump. Looking for exhaust system that will fit the feel of this motor. Dream muffler would be Abarth 4 tip, or some old period correct glasspack header.
We plan on taking this thing on CA Melee this year if we get the car finished. 356 A rear brakes, orig (not Mangels) 356 wheels, stock otheriwse.

Definitely not your run of the mill engine

The whole package sounds cool... car and all.

I may have an old 70's "mini merge" header / glasspack for you... seems like it was a 4-Tuned.
How 'bout a Zenith if the Solex doesn't work out? I have a spare PO10 Zenith with an EMPI single port intake!
We should talk...

Hey Jim,
I've sent you an e-mail to your work e-mail account.

Jim, wasn't this the engine at one point was going to get dual ports and 40P11's?? Whatever happened to those? If you've still got them, I may be interested...

Interesting to see how this combo will run!
