Nick:  I have concerns about my 343, I have dynoes it, but has not been run 
since, on stand, what would you recommend for storage of engine till 
installed in 79 AMX, pulled 408 HP, dynoed by Line Bro in Wright MINN, Jason 
Line ranks 2nd in NHRA, funny cars, does Joe Gibbs Motors, so lot sharper 
than me, also what oil is it and my 360 is on it's way back from machinist, 
30 over, RV cam Edelbrook intake and 650.
