First one I ever did was a 383 Magnum, in 1991. Picked up the MP engine book, had a Solid Mopar Brother for Tech, and A Ford Brother to help me. It didn't hurt that the main Napa had a Machine Shop, and the head guy there knew Tommy. Walked in with my crank, he miked it, and I went to United Speed World to get my bearings. They did hot tank the block for me. Shame on me for not doing an align hone, and replacing the stock rod bolts w/ a 20$ set of MP ones without a resize in the rods. Motor spun close to 7 grand MANY times, street and strip.... ahhh the Good Ol Days
