Sometimes it happens -
back in 1989 i was supposed to buy a 79 Silver TA/TA 4spd with a fresh 74 SD455 engine and big nitrous tank in the trunk.

(another car popped up outta nowhere that took major priority of the 79)

The white SD455 I had that was very rusty I sold to a friend. Actually he was the guy along with his partner that traded me the car. He called me last year while I was at Norwalk and made me an offer I couldnt refuse. I had the heads,block std bore,intake. I had the parts to put it together less body work. He came last night after this covid virus separation. He collects them.

Previously I always wanted to weigh a SD455 block. Last Friday I got access to a gov certified scale,the bare std bore block with all the caps and bolts,but no freeze or screw in plugs weighed 195#. When I found that SR SD455 block in 1975 and tried to lift it myself i new it was heavy. Just info. John and Rocky I have all the nos numbers for you guys.

Finally got my '73 back from the transformation. Had the hood bird and shaker decals put on.
