The 64 is kind of like opportunity knocking, with a car with the 2x4, and the TH400 1st year, and posi rear end... and so close to home! Yea it is a truck full of pieces to be sure!
Your 63 sounds like a beautiful car and with the white over red leather, that has to be my favourite combination! And a 425 and AC to boot.
Where is the car? and do you have any pictures you can email to me? Don't want to lead you along, but I'd sure like to see more of your car!
Thanks,
John

If the engine in question started out with a bore of 4.3125 and it's been bored .040 (forty thousandths) then it should measure 4.3525. A bore of 4.43 would indicate that it's been bored 0.1125 inches. Those cylinder walls are almost tissue paper thin if that's the case.

Yea, I think he must have measured it wrong.
Not sure how, as he is a diesel mechanic ...I'm thinking that he may have read the guage wrong. Not sure.
It did have 40 over pistons in it.
Very tempting, but I have concerns in getting all the parts together and in to my possession.
