Well, I pulled a 440 and installed a new one for my friend the Vietnam Vet. So basically spent 2 days hanging out with JJ and getting his GTX back up and running. I have the old 440 on my trailer to pull apart to find out what went bad. I suspect burnt valves or something a little catastrophic. I tried as hard as I could to get it up and running so he could have it for Memorial day cruising. But a few setbacks came into play and put a chink in the armor. Dowl pin issue on the block and the other issue was a transmission bolt would not screw back into the block. I tried 3 bolts for about an hour... No go. Anyhow thats how I spent my Sunday and Monday. Saturday my daughter graduated from high school with honors.
