Further inspection shows damage on 3 other cylinders. This block is toast. I think I am going to have something built local. Any good builder can put together a short block with a balanced stroker kit. I already have a stroker engine being built for my other "P" car, looks like I'll pick up another block and put a second one under construction.
Captintobeys, Yea, I bought this car knowing it had engine troubles, just hoping for a little less destruction. She'll be out causing havic for local vette owners in short order Hope your falcon block fairs better than mine. Got a good engine builder in Ft. Myers if you need one.
