Anyway, I have reinstalled it like planned, and will post pics when I get them uploaded. Just curious if anyone else has "ruined" then saved a block by removing those stupid bolts that shoild have been WELDED in place if they are that sacred...... I know I know......if I would have read all the books that I spent good money on, it wouldn't have happened!

Actually, that quoted text is referring to the Stovebolt Inline 6 engine series which is not the same series that was introduced in '62 and ran into the late 80's. The 194/230/250/292 series engines share nothing in common outside of having 6 pistons inline, with the older series. Based on what I had read, I don't even think I want to mess with the earlier series as they don't have a lot of the modern "tech" built into them. Stovebolts are the old school engine.
