[Fot] GT6 engines

[Bob]

Steve,

Have not seen the inside of the engine so can't comment on the crank. It 
is cut at .030 under so it probably wont last long anyway.  You may have 
run across the car since it is kind of in your neck of the woods. The 
car (red) is for sale in Berkley, CA. Looks to be a decent car except 
for the good chance it is a MK1 block and crank. Owner is not 
particularly knowledgeable about the GT6 so can't tell me much about the 
origins of the engine. The picture does show a later head on it and the 
studs appear to be 7/16ths.
