Adrian, I don't know where you're located...but the location of the shop might make a
difference...especially if you have to ship the heavy engine pieces....

Lamar Walden might be the best bet as I think he's worked on (and run) these motors
since they were NEW!

Another guy that comes to mind is Tony Schaffer? Think I spelled his name right...
Believe he's located in the Midwest....maybe Kansas? He's a W-motor specialist.

Whichever route you take...I'm sure you'll find that it's best to have as many "friends"
as possible with the build...and make sure you got a good, solid frame too! You might
be the only 348 car out there today....

Willing to bet that photo....of the Casler Tire El Camino racing a '57 Chevy at Indy back
in the '60's...is part of the motivation for this!....The pic was in a magazine a few years
ago.....
