392 Hemi, WIW?

You guys needed some rain down there, right? I bet it felt good while it was falling!
 
Flash floods...wow that is insane!! Glad you got the parts Chris. Can't wait to see the pics and figure out what everything is.
 
The guys wife just called me to tell me the water is down and the roads are passable so if I wanted to I could come pick everything up. I told her I'd come in the morning but she said she'll load it all up and deliver it tonight. I told her she didn't have to do that but she said no problem. I guess they must really need the cash. Anyway I'll post some pictures a little later on.
 
That's insane. Totally.........
What's it down to 105?
Actually Stan it was in the mid 70's while the flooding was going on. It'll be back to 105 later in the week though. By about the first of October we'll have the weather we love to brag about and all the classic cars including my 66 NY'er will be back on the streets for the winter.

Now that is just an odd statement for the rest of us who actually have to put our cars away for the winter....:skier:
 
Makes me want to become a snowbird...
 
Here we go! Pictures of my bounty.

That's just all kinds of kool!
 
That's an RB based Keith black Hemi block...needs a few new sleeves though. :) Think those dual plug valve covers are after market Direct Connections ones. And those single plug black ones might be MP ones as well for the big Keith black heads...or maybe might fit 426 Hemi?

That D500 Hemi is SWEET!!! And man do I want those cross rams.

Congrats on the haul!

The black valve covers are stamped Keith Black. I think I did good on this deal. The ironic thing is if I didn't buy this stuff it would've been scrapped. The guy I bought it from owns a scrap yard. The other funny thing is with all the aluminum it was probably worth more in scrap than what I paid.
 
Nice haul Chris. Is that an aluminum block....? That looks like an adaptor to a LaSalle trans on the engine, It should bring some good money.
And I see some of the harder to find parts for the cross rams too.

Feels good to get lucky some times.

Yes Will aluminum block. And yes the cross rams have the crossover and the mounting blocks and I guess it's the cable mount that turns freely. I'm hoping this haul will finance Carlisle 2014!

And the adapter on the block is because the motor was in a forklift.
 
Well, I don't think anbody is out there restoring a forklift so the adaptor can get tossed. LOL.
An amazing score and it went to the right guy. Super congratulations.

I would assemble that engine with the long runner intakes and display it in my garage if it was mine. All shiny new paint and setting on a stand. I would put it in the living room if my wife didn't live in the same house.

Looks like a good haul!
