Well the 1986 is a de-tuned smog engine with fairly low compression ratio (about 8.8 to 1) I was told. So I thought bolting on the DOVES might be workable. As far as I know the engine as it sits is a stock 1986 460 ci pickup motor with 4-bl carb and dual air pumps with all that dang plumbing. The toughest thing is to try and keep exhaust manifolds on it without leaks.
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
