check the heads. hipos use screw in studs guide plates
also the main caps have more meat. but im far from being
an expert. solid lifters.

well I am not sure what you mean by screw in guid plates but I will look any ways just to see if I can see something different.


also I might be getting A trans for the engine. it's up in the air. I am going to look at it when I get there. so any thing I should look for on that to give me some indacation if it is still good or not.

thanks for the advice.
