    None of it. You would just throw it on the heap with the rest of your shit and never use it

    I knew what it was from the blocked breather hole on the rear of the manifold. Just keeping the Ford FE guru on his toes.

    Mannnnnnnnnnnn, im no guru on anything engine related... BUT I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express...

    I am about to become a FOrd 302R block / 347CLEVOR head guru though... The next round of funding came through and the heads are back to the porting shop for bowl/short turn radius work... Now I just need Steel/Straub to spec out a cam for me...

    And seriously, with that 390 (in the Lavey) block casting # it could very well go 4.130 bore...

    Tisk tisk tisk. You have "Ford" bore sizes on the brain. Nobody bores a FE to 4.130, or a 427 .020 or .030 over any more.
    You bore 427s .017 and .027 over, and you bore 390s to 4.125 for the one in a bazillion that can handle it. Try to keep up old guy.

    4.4 or 4.5 on a 427 block??? Sounds like we had better call L.A. Sleeve...

    Hey Einstein, break out your trusty highly tuned slide rule and tell be how you got those numbers from a .017/.027 or even a .020/,030 over bore with a 427 block?
