Posted by don on 4/7/2007, 7:31 pm, in reply to "swapping from 144 to something newer" Get a late model 200 where possible. Stsy away from the 4 main block that was issued before 1965. You can use a 250 head and mill it down for better performance. There are a lot of 200 blocks around but look for one that has not been punched out yet. Possible donors are Mavericks, Comets, Granadas, Zephyrs, Mustangs and others. --Previous Message--
