I'm not up on the ford stuff, but you have a awesome program there. Been thinking about doing the Hemi head conversion on my wedge block, but it gets real pricey. Dave, I'm 54 now, birthday is May 7th, and I bought the Mustang when I was 15 As for the head conversion, just look at it as an investment. I can totally grenade this thing and people will still pay good money for the junk. Can't do that with cookie cutter pieces Rog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bore is 4.375, so that would be a heavy chuck for sure. It would be a complete rebuild, so it would be awhile if i did that. Hemis are cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twistedcrankcammer Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Dave, Of the two pictured, I like the East Indian Rosewood.
