I guess Unopened is not the right term. What I'm refering to is just changing the cam and valve springs. A good exhaust, a cold air intake and a tune. No other components other than the cam and springs in the motor being touched.
Cheers

Hey Stiffy
Your Daytona deserves the best.
So why not go with the original configuration and drop in a 289 
As luck would have it - I have a spare one kicking around.
And since you're such a good mate I can probably give it away at less than the price of one of those new fangled LS thingys
mmmmmm
go'orn - you know you want to....

It's only blue in spots. There's a nice shade of brown on it and some grey and some black bits too. 
Cheers

Looks like a skid mark with alloy rocker covers to me.
Of coarse that is only my opinion.

Master piece
Throw a carb on that, a set of headers and she would do another 100k.

New Sig
I have had that for a while now after the last ford, chev discussion.
You change a cam you have opened a motor, in my book if you touch a component that touches engine oil you have opened a motor.

Yes it was my mistake in that thread. I meant to say not changing the stock heads or rotating assembly. 
Cheers
