After some bad luck with the old engine earlier this year, cracked block. I just finished the engine for my '60 and posted pics in my gallery. A fresh 351 cleveland. Off to the dyno later this week hoping for the best. I may have it driving later this year

Very cool! Whats the details on your cleveland? I'm changing out my cleveland/C6 for a 4.6/aode. I was satisfied with the power and reliability of the cleveland/C6 just hoping for less maintenance more MPG'S with the new setup.
I would be interested in your dyno results.

Dyno results came in at 512 hp@5200 rpm I'm satisified. Have close to 100 hrs in just the port and polish on the heads. On to the body work. Maybe she will see the street later in summer

Very nice!
I do like the sound of that Cleveland with headers uncapped, pullin through the mid to high RPM's
