A little peak in the motor side of my old Coors roll up door trailer . Lots of motors to build ,we have a few 4 bolt main 351 clevelands ,a coupe of 302 s ,a few 390 GTs . Buckets of rods ,motor mounts ,bell housings and piles of stainless trim . I need to go through it some day to see what's burried in there . That's only one side ,the other side is packed full of interior and a lot of exterior mustang parts !

Don't happen to have any II parts in that stash, do ya? We have a new guy who's swapping a 302 into a newly acquired II looking for a block plate, flex plate, and a torque converter.

If I had known that you were to the point of "pump up", I would have mailed you a "third" FE valve cover that you could have cut the top out of to visually check the rocker arms/shaft oiling. I just have only one though. You would have to have one of your new ones installed on the opposing side!

Digging through may exhaust manifold pile and guess what I find? FE headers! Don't have a clue where they came from but it seem like many years ago someone gave me these and told me that were F100 headers . They are very solid and heavy and will be perfect for my start up stand while I wait for my stainless headers . I will give them a good blasting and hit them with some high heat black .

They appear to be headman headers for 67 72 F 100 ,the new ones are ball and socket but the older version was still a flange . $370. ,figure probably around 400 by the time they were shipped. These can't have been on very long ,they still have black paint in places . Just wish I could remember where I got them!

Don't beat your head against the wall too much
You found em and they work, can't ask for better than that. I'm like a kid on Xmas when I find stuff I forgot I had, especially when it's something I can really use. I am pretty close to everyday being Xmas. Can't wait.
