First step is to tear it down to see what kind of condition it is in. Then the plan is to built it back up with a 4.0" stroker crank I recently acquired. Not decided yet if it will be a 402 or a 427. Either way would be fine with me and, just a question of $$$. A fun project to do with my two sons and WAZOO pals.
