Default Re: 68 BM Phase III L-88 Progress Update

Engine is back together. Significant delay due to the decision to move to a better set of 074 castings. A new set of heads were located and installed. These 074's were a vast improvement over the last set, but still required seperate helicoil installation in three areas to achieve proper bolt down torque. All three areas looked to have excellent thread condition, but failed when specified torque was applied.

Impressive looking piece of muscle. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
