Hi guys, A Pantera buddy named Bob Timma is moving from Michigan to New Mexico and had to clear some junk out. He very kindly GAVE me a 1978-ish two-barrel 302, which will serve as the foundation for a killer 347 stroker for my GT-350 clone. He gave it to my friend Gary Roys (who is on this forum), who built the existing motor in my car (actually, just helped assemble the existing parts after the motor dis-assembled itself somewhat), as well as the absolutely awesome 427 in my Cobra. Gary took it home, cleaned the rats nest (!) out of the intake, then started to take it apart for a look-see. Clearly, oil changes are vastly overrated and totally unnecessary, as the innards of this engine clearly show.... http://members.aol.com/mikeldrew/oilchangecandidate.jpg HAHAHAH!!! Mike
