Ernie,
It seems to me that the only viable excuse for taking a perfectly good sideoiler out of a kirkham would be to replace it with a Shelby aluminum block.
so that is my guess...... am I right ST?

Have a good one,
Dan

My apologies to George ANDERSON. Sorry George, Turk finally clued me in that I had your name screwed up. I hope I can keep it straight now. Senior moments are ocouring more often these days. Thank you for the helpful advice and the follow up info via email.
Here comes a 428 CJ, crack check starts soon.

Dan, you guessed right. Hopefully it'll be ready in a couple of months.

In a month or two I'll be selling the sideoiler that I'm currently using in my Kirkham. It will be priced very close to what you're looking to spend.




How Much Would That Be??

The complete motor carb to pan, alternator to flywheel...$8K
Sorry, but it's already spoken for, I think.

Thanks anyway.
Good luck with your Shelby aluminum block, Lucky Bugger!!
