Heya Larry !
I think I might have to drop the block off at your shop. and ask you to do the block for some Pro-Grams cross bolts....
Remember you said you always wanted to learn how those worked!! LOL..Of course I wouldnt ask for a freebie..I'd make it worth your time..
I dont think I want to trust Terry Waters shop anymore after the deal with my 433" block a few years back...No..I know I dont want them to do this block!! LOL..

Well...that makes THREE I have in line now LOL!!!
Buddy has a 428 block he wants me to do, then I have my 390 sitting on the stand, and now yours LOL!!
Bring it on.....the only thing I have to deal with is machine time. I have to work around work schedule so it sometimes it takes a month or so to get clear time in the mill to do it without tearing down set ups.
Guess I need to start finding the tooling I used way back when..........

Russ you still need me to pickup the block?? Or are ya just gonna skid it and ship it out to Larry? BTW check out MD on epay for those caps. When I still had the 406 i offered him $250 for a set and he replied back for $277+ s/h. Not a bad deal and I still see them on ebay from him.

Shoot, a little FE block ain't tak'n much space. Compared to all my junk/cars/trucks, etc LOL!! Whenever..........the sooner it gets here, the sooner I can get the chance to do something with it. I know how much of a rush you are to get this monster built LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, the other two blocks are not in ANY hurry either. Bring it on whenever you want. Oh, ya. I don't actually do this at my garage, but where I work, that's the reason for working it in.

Oh Yeah Larry I knew you took it to the shop you work at...I just didnt want to imposse anymore than I already have...LOL.. As I really didnt expect you to offer to do the ProGram crossbolts for me....It was just kinda a tounge and cheek joke!! But with that said.. I really wont let Terry Waters do anymore machining for me..He's really not running the shop anymore, cause of his racing !!
And Glenn, I have my Fingers crassed that the Crank is OK...and pass's Mag? I guess we'll find out in a couple weeks tho...
I'll have to call MD and get aracer net on the caps..and find out who all carries them and make a couple more calls, to get the cheapest price..
