I've got a 2bbl intake and carb free pickup only lol A-4 intake the #7 heads you see getting filled and ported in the video with a 5 angle valve job a 70 350 block std bore crank rods and pistons drilled for pilot bushing however it lost oil pressure while tuning and the crank should be cut. I've also got the 71 350 block std bore NEEDS to be bored for that block I have the rods with the std pistons on them that crank is cut 10 under and can't go in the 70 block without facing rods for whatever reason the tolerances between them were way off when I tried to do that. That crank is also drilled for pilot bushing. Prices are negotiable so is machine work. In fact Mark said he's willing to give whomever buys my crap a deal on machine work because he knows I need money to finish my stuff anyway. So if you want contact him at Erickson machine and performance and we can work something out he ships all over too but on your dime.

Not a hole lot going on life has been getting in the way and cut backs at work have cut into my income so I'm doing some small things around marks shop to work off my bill. Yesterday was Sunday and I went up there, while Mark was tig welding some jet ski stuff I took an inventory of what I needed to put my car back together. Not really much cam bearings freeze plugs rings nut really much at all. Then I went out to throw a starter in the Malibu quick for him.... I think I put that starter in 4 or 5 times lol he bought a mini starter for it that's clockable but apparently not all LS blocks are the same good thing i was at a machine shop custom blots. Cut down the starter case, cut down a boss on the side of the block just to name a few things lol of course mark was making videos for his u tube channel and I got in another one so I'll drop that here.

Surprised to hear you’re slow, most shops I deal with have more work than they can handle, but I don’t go south of Summit anymore.
 
it's a trap,don't let your guard down.
Either way a year left to pay on the Challenger and boat. Then another $1000 a month back in our pockets.

So to generate money to finish some projects I'm cleaning up parts I don't need and selling them. Today I learned how to drill and bore a proper pilot bushing hole in an Oldsmobile crankshaft. I'm going to do all my cranks before I list them here's some photos and I'll post a video.
Ok nevermind they don't want to upload and as you know I'm not that tech savvy. I'll try a link to Mark's video
