Happy Birthday to your daughter!

That looks like a heck of a deal for $100 ESPECIALLY is the crank and bore is STD.

The engine in my 1933 Avatar was deemed for the scrap yard. I did nothing to it except put
the correct aluminum heads on it, painted it and have run it many hundreds of miles since.

Makes you wonder how many good Ford parts are scraped daily throughout the country. Thoughts like this make me lose sleep at night.
