You have no idea... I have been holding out for just such an engine for MANY reasons...
I almost didn't get it. I called the wife and told her how stressed I was watching

well Well WELL! Looks like I am the proud new owner of the last BigCam 3 400HP Mil
engine in a steel crate, last one? left on the planet! I'm looking forward to getting this beautiful
example of an M916 back on the road. My blown engine (Spun Rod Bearing) is a BC1,
the new engine is a BC3...

It is a NTC400 Engine.

Gentlemen,

We have a BC1 in an M916 that has a spun rod bearing. We need to refresh. Money is an issue. I ran into a Big Cam 4 engine that looks very promising. I am told a BC3 is an easy swap, what about a...
I have learned a bit since last post a couple of hours ago.
The BC4 has a front sump oil pan, we 'think" we can us my rear sump BC1 pan and
plumb to BC4 pump.
Jury still out on front motor mount.
