I purchased my Lakewood from another board member 2010-ish.
Also used the RobMc dowel pins, the .014's I believe.
It took less than a half hour to dial it in within .0005!
The face was parallel to the block within .0010!

I had to cut a notch in the lower left corner to be able to remove the Canton road race oil pan's drain plug though. I'm glad I caught that before having to do it while installed in the LeMans!

The 462 is around 550-600 hp. Installing a TKX and using an aluminum flywheel, so in my situation, it's well worth the time to keep the legs attached to the torso!
Even if I didn't have the old Lakewood, I'd still shell out the $ for a new Quicktime or Lakewood.......although I'm really glad I had this Lakewood and didn't have to shell out the $800+ for a new one!
