I'd decided to keep this for a project I'd started piecing together but...

...TIME TO FUND THE ENGINE BUILD IN MY '60...

...ALL OF THE ITEMS BELOW FOR $600, OR MAKE OFFERS ON EACH...THEY'LL BE ON EvilBAY SOON...

• ECZ-G HEADS. Appear to be virgin w/Fomoco valves. A few sticky valves, but not stuck. Cleaner than the ones I just had Tim go through. Completely assembled with valves/springs for $300 includes shipping in the 48 states...(keep in mind shipping is about $50-60 per head...)
• ECZ-9425-B MANIFOLD WITH SPACER. (Not pictured) very clean, with thermostat housing. $200 includes shipping in the 48 states...
• 1.43:1 RATIO ROCKER ASSEMBLIES. These are very clean with little wear. I'd give them a quick cleaning and run 'em! They have the late style auto-locking adjustors (repops are $40/set!). I'll include stock pushrods (I believe all 16 are there), and I believe all mounting hardware is there for $75 shipped in the 48 states...
• COMPLETE "ECG" DEARBORN CASTING 272 SHORT BLOCK (without the parts noted above). I'd rather sell this whole to someone who can use it than piece it out. It is COMPLETE from the fan to the pressure plate, from the valley cover to the fron sump oil pan. Inludes the saddle mounts, '57 distributor, fuel pump, wire looms, water pump, pulleys, etc. If I didn't mention something that you're curious about, just ask and I'll check. Standard bore, spins over freely with a ratchet on the crank hub. Just begging to become a 292. No shipping on this one unless you can set up a relay and its paid in advance. Send me an email with specific parts requests, or all for $250

Here's a few pictures, a couple when I received it, and a couple as it sits in my garage. Need a specific picture? Just send me a PM. The T-Bird valve covers, and the 553 intake/carb aren't available.

Hey. I wanted to PM you but your box was full. You PMed me earlier about your heads and possibly sending them out to me. I'm interested but still a novice as to what I can do with them. I'd love to bolt them up to my 272 and get a stroker kit to punch it out to 310. If that's really a possibility then PM me back. Thanks.

Hi Todd,



Great pics of the engine,



sorry, don't mean to hijack your thread, but your pictures show exactly an area that I have a question about.



I am a total newb and I wanted to see if you could give me some info about the 2 NPT ports on the water pump. you can see them plugged in your pictures 4 and 5. if looking at the engine from the fan side one of the ports is at about the 2 o'clock position.



What are these used for? i have always seen them plugged?



Thanks In advance.



James

The 11 o'clock is for hose fitting to heater and the 2 o'clock is for 56 truck automatic transmission cooling, there is a small oil cooler tank on passenger side of the transmission where water goes from water pump.
