Thanks, Goose. It's been fun and enlightening so far. I've taken apart literally dozens of motors over the years, big and small blocks from all domestic manufacturers as well as numerous imports. This is my first post 1st gen Chevy smallblock and I must say that I am very impressed. Prior to this, I assumed the block architecture was much more similar to the original than is actually the case. I can now understand how these motors hold together at high three digit power levels and above.
This motor is definitely the state of the push rod V8 art.
