You just made my day...hell, for that matter you made my week!

Earlier today I decided to go ahead and put everything back together and run it and see what happens. I plan to run it in on a dyno to see how strong it is and make sure there are no leaks before I install it into the 64 Comet. Barry, I sent you a PM earlier today.

my buddy has a 427 punched .042" over in his Cobra. Makes 619 hp and no over heating problems.

Can you tell me some of the specs on your buddy's 427. Maybe I'm not as bad off as I thought. I may opt to replace the KB pistons, LeMans rods, and the OEM crank with some up to day pieces and try to get some more power. I think I have the top end with the current heads and the cam. Just need stronger pistons, maybe Diamond and a SCAT stroker with rods. What bore and stroke is your friends motor?
