Hello everybody,
It is time for me to rebuild my 351c and was wondering if anybody has some suggestions on where to get the engine rebuild in the san diego area. Also, anybody know the size of the bolts for the little flywheel cover on a fmx transmission? Thanks for the help.

well, the engine thing, it really depends on your budget. got a-lot of cash, thy JBA or JMC Motorsports. Want a stroker there is a good builder in Santee(forget the name, i'll look it up and get back to you)

As for the bolts, same sixe as small block header bolts(thats what i had on my fmx), but i don't know the size off the top of my head.........i'll look that up too..................be back....

Are you thinkin' of total performance. I'd stay a away. They are enirley too expensive. I would try JBA if you have the dough. Ed Hale is also a great builder if he is still around.
