Good score! At the moment, I've got three of them stashed away, and a friend says he knows where several more are in an old salvage yard for big trucks near his home. Road trip!!!!!!!!!

Edit: One of those 261's is going to get the big-stroke treatment. A set of NASCAR tool steel connecting rods I just bought on an Ebay auction will allow me to run a 4.375" stroke. With standard-bore 261 pistons (3 3/4" bore) the bore and stroke figures out to 290 cubic inches. A 30 overbore would bring it up to 301! All that from an engine that's hard to tell from a 235 unless somebody knows exactly where to look!
