Stretch,
I just had an idea
Why don't you send Brent Mills a PM and make him an offer for the purchase of this motor. I'm not sure he is aware that it is for sale.
The perfect motor for his new Kirkham.
I remember this being close to the time when Turk does his "Dollars for Brent" drive, so we could all chip in to help him pay for it.
I can't think of a better combination:
two great guys,
a great car, (that needs a motor - a 427so)
a great motor, (that needs a home)
Man what a marriage!
