    The engine in question is in fact a Red block! It is coming with two sets of heads. I knew there was one version of the 6.2 that was desirable just couldnt recall what it was. That answers that question! Thanks!

    The engine in question is an early block from 1982. I seem to recall reading some where the early blocks were stronger then the newer ones. Or do i have this backwards?

    Headlight mod's

    The Relay harness will take the power for the headlights directly from the battery rather then drawing the voltage through the factory wiring. Which will reduce the stress on it as you said but at the same time you gain brighter headlights due to them getting clean voltage straight from the...

    I normally wear a 5XL T shirt but have also been able to get away with a 4xl in a hoodie. So either way to be on the safe side given these seem to run a touch small i would have to say 5XL
