Well jeff I dont know what to say to that except I just took possesion of a new MSD distributer shipped by ups from the USA. and paid $54.82 duty on. Can you check on this? Should I have not paid it? They would not have given it to me until I paid It. The shipping cost I paid up front when I bought it. Is UPS scamming me?

I got a note from your bud out east and I got back to him via e-mail to see if what he has will make sense. Thanks for your help and I will let you know what the scoop is.

I bought a block.
First of all I had a lot of great engines I could have bought, from guys here at great prices but the customs and importing was a trip to h$ll. I thank all who helped because as I researched each one I learned more. Any way here is the photo of it. Please look at it and tell me what you think.

It is a mark 4 bowtie block tall deck with a 4.600 bore. I am wondering if I use the standard roller lifters of do I need the after market type with the conectors or what. Please tell me what you can as I need to buy everything for this.
Thanks

You will need a aftermarket mark lV retrofit cam and lifter set up. Mark lV's never did come with rollers. Looks like the lifter bores have been sleeved. How many cu.in.'s you go'n for.
