**73 Scamp Mini Pro-Street Engine Swap**

Well the valve covers just kept weeping so I installed the MP finned covers that were on the 340, no more oil leaks. Also I replaced the dipstick today. The other one had a pin hole in it right where it meets the block. The engine was warm when I installed it. I slipped a nut over the tube and then used a piece of chromoly tube about 18" long over the tube and tapped the tube into the block. It went in after about 15 small taps with a hammer good and tight no leaks. I installed a 7200 revvv chip in it today also so ill have at least another 1000RPM to play with. The oil will be changed tomorrow then I am ready to terrorize again starting Friday.

Took the car out for another thrashing today and ran into my old neighbor that use to have a really nice RR 440 6pak 4spd. I was lighting my tires off in front of his office, Lol so he comes out and says damn when you get this car, it sure sounds healthy is it a BB? He then says can we go for a ride. I say sure. He gets in and starts telling me how fast his RR was this and that as we're taking off, I'm just yeah yeah, blah blah listening. We go down the road where nobody is take a left and I let it rip all 3 gears and about RPM'd out in 3rd to my 6k chip then let off. He was trying to grab onto anything he could was some funny chit, thought for a second he was gunna jump out, LOL. He then says holy **** this thing would have wasted my RR, I just started laughing and said yes it sure would've! :D
