Now I remember... It was Joseph Upson that showed that iron heads will bolt up to the VVT blocks.

My engine builder was trying to sell me a 3500VVT block. It looked just like at 3400 block until I noticed the VVT menchanism and then I took note of the offset bores...

"Possible" is a many-splendored thing.
If iron heads were made to work on the 99mm bore block, both deck surfaces would be more welding rod than virgin iron.

The end of the year?
Don't ask which year, though.
I bought a new place when I got back from Afghanistan (1.2 acres in DC Metro!) but now I don't have a garage, so I go to my dad's on the weekends to work on the car.
ETA: Err... Ooops; Yeah, Lou[This message has been edited by Will (edited 09-28-2018).]

I see! That's why I made sure that the last house I bought the garage is as big as the house!

Got the short from the machine shop and now I'm just test fitting the pistons. I did this mathematically so the test fitting would verify my calculations and that it would work, and it did. Stay tuned!

Rotating assembly in and torqued. Next items are the camshaft, timing chain and oil pump and then its going to wait to take the place of the 3.4.
As far as the car I ordered a set of mounts and shift cables and the fixture to install an F23. Also have the LSD installed in the F23. I also have the new clutch kit.
I should have it running soon, I'll keep you posted.
