This is a Deerslayer episode called Long Block Front. Moving right along now, this log entry deals with the nailhead long block. Checking the camshaft degreeing. Cleaning, painting and installing the timing cover, water pump and balancer. Mating the Latham supercharger pulley to the harmonic balancer. Modifying the Latham water pump pulley to fit. Starting oil pan, oil pan baffle and oil pump operations.

I've been following these, and I can't help but notice how much that old Buick block reminds me of a modern day LS block. Nothing new under the sun..

I'm not that familiar with most modern engine designs so had to do a little research to find that, yes, the nailhead and the LS share the deep skirt "Y-block" design structure. Learned something new today. Thanx.
