Anybody got a set of rect. ports they trying to get rid off? I have a set of Merlins I could use on the street car, just dont want to use them for that rather save them for the flatty .List a price and a casting #. I have a couple of sets of ovals just dont want to use ovals with the rect. port blower intake.
I have found some sets on ebay and craigslist. Just checking THB now.

My machinist called one of those 990's were cracked, thats what I get for buying crap like that from people I dont know. Lost his # , emailed him though. Will be calling though. I hate people that do that shi%. Now I know why they were disambled.

Well I put the Merlins in the back of the truck at lunch, off to the machine with the 427 and the heads after work. Hopefully the merlins are good too.
