Think I'll get it running good and decide it's fate then. My thoughts are to sell the Offenhauser dual intake and try to find someone in need of a running, numbers matching 1940 216 with 120+ lbs compression. I don't have a 216 intake to replace the Offy with, but I do have a 5590 ('53-'55 235) intake on the 216 that I pulled out of my truck. I'm not spending any money on this engine at this time.
