    Should I buy this 351c?

    I have a set of D1ZE-GA heads and they are CC, I think 71' was the last year for the CC heads, although they did make OC heads for the cobra jet 351 in 1971? The Boss heads were 67cc because of the pop up pistons they used which made compression 11.7 to 1 i've read, Boss and regular CC heads...

    Sandblasters?

    I have 2 little weak compressors, I have a feeling sand blasting will take awhile. A 16gal 2HP and a 5 gallon 2 HP compressor. I'll just keep switching back and forth. Thanks, Jim

    IM debating wether to build it or buy one off the net, the places around here want more to build it then I can get a built one off the net for. Anyway one cool thing was I thought it was a 72' block but taking the heads off revealed the flat top high compression pistons and standerd size bore...

    Should I or Shouldn't I?

    As far as I can tell the only appearence difference on the Mach 1 vs. the BOSS 351 was the BOSS 351 decal on the front fender in place of the Mach 1. It should actually outperform the original BOSS 351, it will be making about 100 more HP with a more radical cam/intake/carb and 4:11 outback. I...
