I know the bore at the bottom is 2 3/4. the primaries are 1 1/2 " into 2" into 2 1/2 "

Yeah got the engine mate! New bottom end is nearly ready, just looking at a set of SBD rings for it. Head is not far of, just need to put the qed cams in with some new hydraulic lifters.

Still lots and lots to do tho lol
