I was thinking about either a Performer, or an R4B, which do you suggest?
Jeff, Good call, yes I am new to building engines, pulled many, but never built one. I think your advice is the way I am going.....single 4bbl on a Performer or R4B. If I run across a setup later that is interesting, I'll adress it then.
I hope to be able to get into this motor in a week or so and actually have some REAL information such as actual bore, rod / crank specs, etc
Thanks, Dave

jeff has the right idea. stick with the "K.I.S.S." method(keep it simple
you now the last one). thats how my dad taught me to build. do one
first and keep it as close to stock as possible. make sure you torque
everything to specs. plastic gage the crank and rods your manual will
have the specs. check all bores. personal experience for me is if the
bores differ more than .005" you might have to do a minimum bore job
to even out the cylinders.hot tank the block ,heads, intake,valve covers ,
and oil pan.
good luck, later,rollen
