I just finished tearing it down to a bare block and got it all cleaned up. Appears to be high mileage and standard bore, came with 452 heads, and a windage tray which is a first for me. As far as the water pump housing hole, I’m probably just going to ignore it. I feel like 2 of the 3 bolts will hold it fine. If it leaks I’ll drill it further in and tap it.
Not sure if I’m going to do a full build on this one or just do a basic piston/cam build like my other 440s.
Here’s the truck it’s probably going in.
