Thanks for the input Roger. I am retired and this is a dream I have had for a very long time (well it started with a 427 then a 396 and now a 454). As I stated earlier, I only want to do this once (engine/trans swap). If I don't do this now I may never do it. I have owned a '65 Cuda, '65...

I think I just wet myself a little! I got the 454! its a 1991 gen V. block #10114182 and head #10114156. I got a receipt from a machine shop, who has been in business for 30 plus years, who rebuilt the engine and the heads. In addition, I got an billet tech accel distributor, accel Super stock...

thanks for the info i'll research a rubber gasket.

I bought a mr. gasket chrome cover for the differential. I have 2 questions: it came with a gasket, one side dark and shiny and the other side "corky" looking. which side goes against differential housing? my second question: do I use sealant with the gasket? thanks for any help or suggestions!

put 5 coats of flex seal on leaking windshield. i'll update if it worked. the flex seal did not work. I used permatex flowable silicone windshield leak repair and it worked like a champ!
