My Red Deal of The Day

I have the 82 set up. all original bottom end, cast rockers and I just changed the heads last year :rof: (they were probably cracked from the factory)

Red block of course and the 2 filter set up, I don't mind the filter behind the intake you just have to take the housing off to change it.

Red blocks have a higher nickel content correct?

As far as I know that is correct. The heads were very prone to cracking because of the large valves. It cracks between the valves. Most of the other heads crack there even with the smaller valves.
