66 Cutlass is alive again. See video

21 DAYS teardown a stock 403 and drop bare block off at the machine shop. Acquire parts and pull the old motor. Build new motor and install.

I remember the original build. I was blown away by your handiwork. Still am. Congrats to you. That thread was the best thread EVER put up on here.
