On our trip to the USA Jeff and I visited Gary Conley's amazing basement workshop, just out of Chicago.
This is what he has on offer, however he is a little busy at present. Put your order in today and you may have it in 18 months to 2 years. He's got that many back orders! He took orders for 6 just last week!
Jeff an I almost collapsed when he showed us nearly 40 motors ready to be tested an shipped... 
His shop is an Aladdins cave of treasures around every corner!

Morrie,
There is only one of those and Gary wants at least $20,000 for it. He said he will sell it.

Awesome looking bit of gear Bob
The brochure says it's for the 427 (not the Stinger 609)
Does that mean it'd fit my little 327.....the bolt pattern on the block should be no different to the 427 should it?
Did Gary give you any other detail on it?

Dan,
Gary gave us details for hours. The entire time we were there was like being in a surreal dream. I can barely remember anything beyond...
"Hello Gary, I'm Bob" and "Hope we meet again Gary"...LOL
Mr Conley loves a chat and while we dribbling and throwing out such succint comments as...
"OH sh!t, OMG.. WOW... I don't believe it"...etc,
I dont think we were absorbing too much detail.
