Great you have the information.  I commented on there a couple times. 

I have not had a big block but didn't the big block crossmember move the drive train to one side?  With a small block crossmember does that cause any weird problems?

I see several things I dont like.  It will be interesting how it comes out.  Looks like tag has been off and dash replaced to start with

Thanks boomer.  I will inspect the holes a little closer now that I have it off and see it they look drilled or punched or maybe mangled lol

I have a car with the holes for the front guard but not sure if they were added.  They were not on it when I bought it.  If someone has a car with them originally, is there a nut on the back side or one welded on?  I had a guy look at it and he thought the holes were kind of crude like someone added them. 

I secured a sink and a single basin will hold a hood hinge.  I bought a lpg burner off amazon for under $40 and will see how this works.  My grill is wood pellets so I may see if dad notices his grill tank is missing!!

I do see lowes has a $62 single bowl stainless sink.  Cheaper than pots! It may have some insulation under it but may be worth a look

Hi guys.  I have a set of hood hinges I want to phophate.  They were painted and I found a foil pan at dollar general that I soaked them in.  Was not the best fit but worked.  I was wondering if anyone found anything big to heat them up in for the phosphate?  I read where someone used an old stainless sink and would like to get them done quicker than looking for an old sink. 
Thanks

My burgudy 03D is 83 vin numbers after this one and my body number is 9 before. 

My engine guy had enough problems with Comp cam solids that he was only installing rollers.  His business is 99% race cars but has put some small rollers in a couple Z28s.  I am pretty sure the one was a Howards that a lady is now driving the car after her husband passed.  I drove it a couple times and had good vacuum and really responsive.  I believe this is the part number 111213-10. 
If you run a solid, use the lifters with the direct lube hole in them.  Friend of mine seems to get along good with those. 
I just built a 427 small block and used a crower 00425.  They said it should still have enough vacuum to run power brakes.  I had a 140 cam in my one Z and it was not the best for power brakes!
With a roller the lifters get expensive, we get billets, and you need a cam button.

Good Gosh "Broach Mark City"

They do look all original

Those broach lines are not parallel.  Nothing original about them

I had a picture of the tag but if I remember right it was about unreadable. 

What a great color combination and the black top too

Wonder how many of us messaged him 

Oh its real. I have seen enough stamps and the engine has been in this barn for 50 years Car was getting rusty and him and his buddy pulled the engine and sold the car.  I want it for spare parts and would not be selling it.  Just wanted ideas on what would be fair.  bc and a friend on the yenko site and I had the same general idea so I will see what happens.
