End of discussion!
ditto Dimis, although I think he meant a 427 SOHC Cammer, save the stroking for a rebuild later. Probably go with a DART Alu block and have Gessford build it, meeting tolerances down to a nat's ass is a Gessford specialty.

For me its a Boss 331, just love the combination. Dart block, yates heads and cross ram injection with plenty of special carbon fibre bits. Am very lucky, hope to have it in by years end. Althought the stock market gobbled a bit of it up last week.

Cheers

Funny you should say that.
Many moons ago when I lived in Canberra and the Toyota Crown kit was around I also had a few spare chook cookers laying around. I went to the Dept of Motor transport and they siad that installing one would create no problems as the 'standard' horsepower was the same as a 2600 crown engine. I formulated a cunning plan to put a chook cooker in the crown I got for a song and then later get the crown chassis based cobra body.
To this day I still have nightmares of my intentions and am greatful I didn't do it.
Young. dumb and full of ?? empty wallet back then.
