A fellow in town bought one of those off Tim, and built a hot rod around it. It gets along quite nicely.

He gave me the huge box the engine came in. When you sand back the paint there is a list of all the repaired engines that had passed through the box.

Cheers Ken

Hi Hano

Yup just what you need to make friends with neighborhood. I've got two 216s set up on test stands but even though it's the right number of cylinders just don't think it would be the same sound. Think I would need to match the cubic inches which would be something like 8 216 engines.

Enjoyed all the other engine videos that came up on the side panel of YouTube.

Cheers Phil
