Engine year changes and issues

["Taylor, Jeff" <JTaylor1@cpm.dot.state.nj.us>]

OK list I have a question for ya.  I'm putting together a motor for my
72' squareback.  Car was built in January of 72'.  I purchased a block
for it engine number---UO357148 (70').  Engine is dual relief just in
case anyone questioned that.  Is there anything I should know or do
differently to this case that I need to in order for me to keep that
sacred 7.3:1 ratio. (sorry for that run on sentence)  Or anything
.....this is my first build up.  I'm keeping it the stock 1600 with FI.
All components will be balanced.  Any recommendations on connecting
rods?  I have a 009.....should I use it?.....I've been hearing people
question it.  

Next issue......If anyone is in the Northeast .....I will be selling my
72' fastback very very soon.  4 speed with dual 34 webbers.

Last issues......At an earlier date I mentioned a BARN FULL OF PARTS!!!!
I don't recommend this fellow to anyone.  He was a real ASS!  ( body
panel and parts were not good at all......everything was neglected and
he wanted a fortune)  I also mentioned another gentlemen......having a
load of parts South of me in New Jersey.  This fellow comes highly
highly recommended.  He has allot of older type3 parts.....but not later
with the exception of maybe tail lights.  The good news for us is he
knows someone that has rare....rare Type3 parts.  I will be getting that
phone number very soon.  After I talk to him.....I'll give the number
out!!  :^)
