I always liked that vid, good clean racing.
If anyone wants their SBF to run like that, Keith's heads, rocker arms, injectors, and meter are now for sale.
The .001 is a factory undersized bearing used to keep everything in spec. This was and is often done in the assembly plant. If the crank was turned it would have been at least .010" under not .001"
ALWAYS bore and hone a block for a rebuild unless it has next to no milage like a race motor that is freshened at least once a season. A ridge forms at the top of the bore after years of use, if this ridge is not taken down to the new bore size, the top piston ring will crash into it and either break, never seal right or both.
Mix and pour into a clean block, very simple. Do one side (on a V engine) at a time and jack/block up the engine block so the deck is level while pouring and untill cured.
Starts fine, hesitates a little untill warmed up. Once warmed up it runs perfect except when the throttle is applied in one certain spot about 1/2 throttle. Before that spot is great and after that spot is also, but when trying to accelerate a little more than moderatly it goes lean, apply a little more throttle and it smooths right out. Only a minor nuisance.
