Yes in deed, probably to help him as he builds them...

I will need to measure from the gold car as it would be the same...
Hoping mine is accurate....

Big thanks to Jeff for passing this one on to us.

This will be my first small block build so I will be needing lots of help from you 289 guru's.

Also a big thanks to Kevin for draging it from NH to VA.

Looking forward to seeing the progress. I may still have a part or two laying around.
