All work was done by my self. Car has been rebuilt front to back. Engine is original to car the serial number stamping is clear & CZU. The Tonawanda numbers are faint T0508CZU 70S410049. When I rebuilt engine I had the block surfaced. The high side of block was on the back so machinist was able to save the numbers. The only original engine internal parts is the crank.I personally had all machine work done to my specs and I assembled the engine. I lowered the compression to 9:25-1 to run on pump gas.Car has aluminumgriffin radiator& High flow water pump. I live in AZ and car has no problems with running hot.The Muncie transmission was not original to car so I built a M20 Muncie with Autogear super case/Steel mid plate/Matched slider synco assemblys/Heavy duty bearings & Bushings.
