Chuck,
I have one and will test the blocks’ head bolt threads tomorrow by bolting down the head and rockers with a used gasket . If it can reach 65ft lbs ...I’m good. Merry Christmas.
Adding an AC compressor on it is more difficult than the wedge but it can go if you settle for a DGV carb intake manifold. Definitely not with dual Weber’s’. On the header side ,.. testing that soon.
