Is the exhaust you are going to use from the 502 going to work with the 489 you plan on putting in ? Surely the 489 isn't like a mega mild 400hp 502.

Let it be. Sometimes you just gotta put up with a little humor in life. Is what it is. Maybe just have your wife post if you would like some help while you fix dinner and do the laundry. I'd even bet she would know where the serial number is on a Chevy.

History on it was it run but not good ...so we go look at boat like it ..awhile c heckling it out ..I forgot to pull kill switch ,just to see if it would roller over easy or was it dragging.type deal ..will it busted off ..and we heard **** load of valve noise ...so I still ran a comp check on the odd bank 90-120 psi..so we knew going in it had upper end issues ,,well I went to hunting the issues ..with my chief mech ,,my wife she a gear head .so we start on the even back and notice the valves not moving like they should ..so we going reset the lash ..and find a bent push Rod ,,,call it a day ..go digging thru my spare parts found a rod ...go to putting rockers on .2 intake valve dropped out ..tunes out the keeper broke ..found all off it ..try to pull valve back up notta going to move ..so ..I start tearing it down to get out of boat ,,,bent valve ..3 piston. Not pretty,,, heads look good other then valve guide on bent hole ..so we r going to rebuild it .,,,I was thinking I could use the flywheel and balance on the 489
