The above picture was
taken in 2003, after installing a 355ci 4-bolt engine with help from Rob (light blue shirt) and Andy (green shirt).
Unfortunately, the engine
had been poorly built by a shady local mechanic; we'll call him... oh,
say... Kendall. Rocker arm studs came loose, oil passages were
blocked, and the connecting rod bolts were too long and hit the oil pan.
Unable to find or contact Kendall, and having lost confidence in the
engine, I yanked it out of the car.
The pictures below show
the installation, in 2006, of the same engine, rebuilt by Southern Marine
& Automotive.
