401 Ambo, you must know these motors well from this post:
It was being machined 4-1/2 years ago, did you eventually collect all the parts, does it run, what's it going into or is it already installed???

Haven't built one yet, life got in the way. Did gather some parts and hope to start the build this year.
I intend to put it in the fiberglass AMX/3 I bought from Tom.


With the flat plane crankshaft? Cool

Will you be able to bump the stroke up a little past the original 2.36"?

Even a 2.5" stroke would rev to the moon and give you a 251" flat plane V8 with the 4" bore Clap

I can only imagine the flat plane AMC V8 sound coming out from under an AMX/3 at full song. 

What a dream build!

Here's just what you asked for.

Off topic but did you get a set of Visner billet heads to go on that thing yet ?
