To answer the questions:

I plan on disassembling the entire engine. I am not sure if I will overbore it, but I will at least hone the cylinders and install new rings and bearings.

I know what you mean about an Edelbrock carb and manifold. They even sell camshafts that are matched to their intakes and carbs. I haven't heard if these work well. Anybody have any info on this? I have also heard that multi carb setups are difficult to tune. It would suck to put the car together and then have to tune the carbs every week before I go to a Saturday cruise.

Thanks for the input. Keep the advice coming.

Oldsguy, once you get the engine down here there will be some Blue Moon Harvest Wheat waiting in the fridge for you. Then again, I can buy some Nat Light or PBR if that is more to your liking.
