We were moving some stuff around over the weekend and building new engine stands so I snapped a few pictures of the engines we have for our next few projects.

The first is the 63 406 6v that is going in my dads G code Galaxie. The engine is all rebuilt and ready to go, just waiting on the car to be ready...hopefully by the end of the summer. Front cover and dampener still need to be changed, machine shop intalled the wrong ones.

Second is a 427 that has been sitting in the corner of the garage for 20+ years. It was pulled out of a wrecked 64 Galaxie and put in a friends jet boat. After very little use, we got our hands on it. It is standard bore with the original pistons, but the bumpers were machined off to drop the compression. Originally it was going to go in my dads Thunderbolt clone he has had for 30 years, but plans changed for that a few weeks ago.

And finally the new Thunerbolt engine. A craigslist find...a story that I will detail some other time when we have opened the engine up and find out what all is there. It's a complete high riser that has been sitting in a crate since 1978 when it was last rebuilt by Holbrook Enterprises in Livonia, MI. More detail to come later...

1963 G code box top 406 3x2 4 speed.
1964 P code 428 CJ 3x2 barrels 4 speed My first "old Car"

I almost had to beg the guy to sell it to me, as I wasn't local either. He ran the ad for a week, then finally gave in.

I called on that too. A day late & a dollar short. Had a Holman-Moody history? I thought someone on the forum ended up with it. Nice engines yall have Ben. Fun projects. Leland

But I saw that one too. This one was from the Houston area as well, but no Holman Moody history. The last owner got it with a Mach 1, and kept it as a spare engine.

in TX on the same week . Bens is a High rised 4v engine the other was a holman moody engine. Glad one ended up here , hope the other ended up good to. Thanks Lance
