I bought one and passed another one on to a pontiac guy a few month ago.Just passed a std deck 303 block to a guy doing a Titus TA build.They are out there but most people dont know much about them and pass on them as they are not a "400" or "455" block.The 303 has the drysump provision.Tom

Tom,Ken Croche had the drysump pump,put the buyer and seller together,I think he is actually working with Nell on it.I sold him my cam for it.I think Jim Robertson is doing the IV headed std deck engine.I have not checked lately how the deal is going.The actual Titus 303 short deck engine is being built at Ron Shavers place.I took a set of foils over a couple month ago for it.It is going in a Titus car.Don Keefe had the engine,sold it to John Riconda and John reunited it with the Titus car.Some really neat stuff going on in the background of our hobby.There is a 303 std deck rotating assm on ebay now for a few month.I have some interest in it but not at his number.Tom

Think that was the car/engine he had his bad wreck in. I saw the parts for it at Butler's many years ago. Shiny (Polished) Finish Roots deal, if I remember correctly. This would have been after years of NOS and the a very short time with the Roots, and then the Single Turbo car.

389 sonic result
The sonic test has just come back and its kind of not what I was hoping for. One to six are what I was expecting but seven and eight are kind of shocking and not at all nice. The huge differance between frount and back is not what I have seen before and I was wondering if this is common. It was surgested to me that the block might have been sitting on its bell end with water sitting in it but it would seem unlikely to me that the corrosion would be that even around the clylinder.

Just a trivia type deal, Body was a lot older vs a 97 or the 02 Firebird bodies.
Think it was a car he had after the 66 and before the 97 car, but a long time ago and the deal had a very short life. You could ask when and where David Butler wrecked his car and what he was doing when he wrecked it and 95% of the people would not know that deal either. Tom V.
