Hello all,

It's been a while since I've done any V-8 stuff (other than keeping
my Rangie on the road).  Many of you know I've been busy with my
'B-GT rally car (took 2nd in class at the last event to end up 3rd in
class for year end!).  Also ran a decent stint in the roadster, ended
up with a 2nd in the San Diego Region Solo II Street Mod class, and
that was with the 4 banger!

However, I think it is time to get the engine done.  I'm looking for a nice,
late 3.5 block, preferably in the SoCal (San Diego?) area.  I think I told
the story of woe here about pulling apart one 3.5 I had only to discover
cracked bearing saddles.  Plans for the block will be +.020 and high
compression pistons.  My 3.9 engine is going in the Range, towing the
rally car is a real drag with the 3.5 in it.

Also looking for:  driveshaft (TR-8 gearbox to 'B rear axle) and radiator.

Best of luck to all of you go-fast guys,

-Keith Wheeler
