Thanks Turk. When I returned from the hospital, my wife was helping me into the house via the side door of the garage when she exclaimed "surprise" and to my dismay my garage had been emptied and was once again suitable for the parking of cars, but all of my blocks, trannies, cranks,intakes, etc. were all gone. My wife gave it all away to an itinerant handy man for cleaning the garage and hauling the "junk" away. She was so proud of the fact that she had the garage now available for parking, what could I say? Oh well, I don't think I will ever tell her, it wasn't really "junk". Handy man is probably retired now. So goes life in the fast lane. Sometimes you get the bear and sometimes the bear gets you. I am just thankful that I had the Shelby block engine installed in the car. I am going to miss those H-M blocks and that set of 6 Thou Kuntz SK heads.

Heck I forgot about the original 427 FE dry sump system, all aluminum. I have never seen another one, although Dove made a replica of it for about 4 Thou.
