Default 351 Windsor with Shelby intake

I have a 351 Windsor I removed from my 1968 Shelby. I have got the 428 back in the car. I did not build the Windsor so I have limited information. First, it did not leak, burn oil, or smoke. It had excellent oil pressure varying from 30-80 psi depending on temp. and RPMs. It has a nice lopey idle with about a 280 adv. duration cam. I have a video clip of it idling in the car but it is a large file. I need to see if I can reduce it to email size. The engine has been out of the car for about 1 week.
The engine has a Shelby lettered 4bbl. aluminum intake with the firing order on it. It also has black Cobra valve covers, complete flywheel/clutch/pressure plate and a 289 aluminum bell housing. It is complete from oil pan to intake. It is dirty but will clean up nicely. I may get this done. It ran strong in my car but I do not need it anymore. No knocks or ticks. Just clean it up and drop it in. The block has a D1AE casting. It also has water pump and points distributor. First $1500 takes everything. Email me or post your question. I live in the Dallas, TX area. Thanks, Todd
