Sorry, I wasn't clear.  I was referring to Jack's 502 Trans Am number.
Pretty sure he was referring to the 494 Can Am.  Trans Am was limited 
to 5 liters and 502 cubes is a common Chevy 454 stroker displacement.

I think the aluminum 351C block was for Dyno Don Nicholson or 
Gapp and Roush.

I'm only 1800 miles from Gary's shop so I don't drop by often.

Thanks,
Dan
