Jack...unfortunately for some reason, the pics in your last two posts don't work or appear...There are only some white squares and inside of them, a message saying: "This image or video has been moved or deleted - Photoshop"... ...BUT curiously, the ones you posted a few days ago are still there!...

Claude.

Question

Well, I tried again, using my computer as usual, but no pics. Then, re-tried with ANOTHER computer...still no pics!..

Claude.

P.S: Maybe a third person could verify this?...

Jack, I have one question: You were saying my new engine was a "153" motor...What exactly did you mean?...Is it the block casting# ? (as they say for a "109" block?)...and is it an "on" or "off" -center motor?

Yes, it is a 153 on-center motor, it's the best of the best blocks. It is actually the block I was supposed to get for a former TSO customer of mine, but the deal fell through at the last minute, when the block owner disappeared for a year and left me in a very bad position...

Well I guess the block owner "re-appeared" just at the right time for me!
That TSO customer...was it your good friend "TedA"?
Anyways, I thank you Jack, for giving me the opportunity to get my hands on such a great motor! If it wasn't for you, this could not have been possible!
So "153"... it's the block casting # right?

Thanks and talk to you soon,

Claude.
