Hi Burt,
Thanks for the info. I'll let you know how I make out. Just saw your post with the leak, my 13 year old son is restoring a 67 GTO and the firewall had to be cut out we used a donor lemans for it. The car sat in a chicken coop for nearly 20 years with a hole in the roof causing water to sit right at the window/firewall. I'm trying to figure out how to send you a picture of it. My cousin Ray is doing the hard body work for us he's on the forum under 62hotcat he's located in NJ Tomriver area. A bit out of your way, but he is very good if you need anything.
Thanks again and I'll let you know how the engine goes. John

Thanks for getting back to me. Good luck with the new job! I ordered from Len & he's building it now. I can't wait to get it. It's been a while I forget which engine did you go with? I went with 455 with the Eagle upgrade. If you have a minute I have a couple of questions for you.
Did Len advise you on what intake and carb combo you should use? Or did you go with your own thoughts on it? He said I should use the Edelbrock Performer with a Holley 800+ carb. I keep reading on the Forum that I should use the RPM but he said doesn't make a difference. And what type of exhaust did you go with? Headers or manifolds?
I appreciate any help or thoughts you can give me.
Thanks, John

Sorry I am so late in getting back to you. I just re located and started a new job. I did get the engine from len Williams and I am very happy. Motor pulls strong. I have about 1500 miles so far and no issues. I would get another

Hi,
Just wondering if you ever got the engine from Len Williams? I just ordered on for my 78' TA project and was wondering if you did get one how is it doing. How is the power and did I make the right choice?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
John
