The engine/trans ready to pull. It comes out tomorrow when I can get a buddy over to help. The engine is pretty dirty and looks like it was run for many miles. Im curious to see what the previous owner did to be able to run high compression 400 heads on a 455. That would be close to 12:1 compression. Im hoping the pistons were dished. Hopefully he didn't run the high compression by backing off the timing. Retarded timing is bad for the engine. On a good note I pulled the tranny pan and it was very clean inside. I should have the engine torn apart by Monday. I will post pics.
