    Engine failure, rebuild, with turbo, jakes.

    You don't need to, they are installed so that if the FW hsg is removed, you don't need to dial it in again, but that is a common thing to do anyway, but it is a good idea to install them and peen the holes....think of the Dodge killer dowel.

    Yes, that is VERY important too, unless you like to camp out on the side of the road!

    DO NOT put BC push tubes in a small cam, the lengths are different and things will go south quickly!

    Speaking of push tubes. Again, IIRC, the small cam and big cam are different lengths. Don't mix them. Again, IIRC, SC are longer. Funny how you know things and when what you know isn't used, it goes away.....

    IIRC, 2 different lube systems, one is FFC, full flow cooling, the other DFC, demand flow cooling. One has a stat that controls oil flow through the cooler to only flow when upwards of 230 degrees, DFC. Hard to see if the BC has that system from the pictures. Even though the BC is probably older...

    NTC likes to eat cams too if it is over fueled.

    Where are the cracks? Some counterbore cracks were/are acceptable. Cracks from water passages to the counterbore are easily repaired with a threaded insert. Pics?

    Exhaust port size was reduced to speed exhaust gas flow. They are interchangeable, can be mixed on any engine, SC or BC. Only thing difference is the hole in the intake. ReCon heads come with a plug kit and include the 1/16 inch PP to plug the holes on early heads for turbocharged engines...

    Lift has no bearing on the plunger seating? Explain that. If there were no duration, or outer base circle, carbon would be pushed back into the injector cup, then you'd be changing injectors constantly.

    Heads will be fine if it is turbo charged, if not, you need to have the hole into the intake. 400 injectors will not work because the cam is different. More lift on the 400, .266 V.S. .176 IIRC. Even if I am wrong on the measurement, the BC is WAY different than the SC, you will have a smoke...

    Using the heads from the donor will work providing there are the correct ones that have the hole drilled in them into the intake port. How do you propose to just drill the holes for the PC nozzles? IIRC, the supply galley isn't even there in the non PC engines, they are targeted also, so it is a...

    Upper bearings are the wear point. What do they look like? If you get new bearings, make sure they don't give you the ones for the non stud/nut rods. The oil hole is offset and you will not oil the piston pin. Ya know, you can take the push tubes out and you will be fine. It will be hard putting...
