    have I missed something here? do you already have a tall deck 427 to drop into the baddestasserest wrecker in Boston?

      No, but I hope to have one in my possession in the next two weeks.

      Shannon is just talking about post swap inspection of the 292.

        You know I'd be interested in seeing that!

        I hope to get the 292 for the '54 screwed together this winter. I have the head ready to go, the cam and lifters and engine swap mounts, dual exhaust manifolds, clinton intake, and a set of stock cast replacement +.030" pistons I got cheap off ebay.
        Need to get the block cleaned and machined, crank checked out, and pistons put on the rods, gaskets, bearings, rings.

          Don't waste your time with all that checking stuff. Three stone hone, Sam Adams as lubricant, wipe it down with a T-shirt covered in 30 weight, put the slugs in and go. Unless you don't want to do it my way.

            For it it to be truly epic, though...he has to do it while it's in the car.

            And you used Sam Adams?? I figured Goliath got Milwaukee's Best!

              Since I only used half a bottle, I wanted to drink the rest.

                  Pretty please?

                    Man, if he ever gets you those measurements, don't be surprised if they are in cubits....

                    It's really no different than trying to glue them back on after she has her way.

                            Not really, it is budgeting season.

                                Excellent point, although spreadsheet hell at this time of the year is especially painful.
