The least-common MEL engine was the 410 in³ (6.7 L) Bore was lower at 4.2 in (106.7 mm).
The 430 was replaced by the 462 in³ (7.6 L) engine in 1966.

 MEL   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Nissan introduced their second specification of engine for 2001 to compete with the Aurora but essentially there was still no change to the concept which had focused on the most competitive engine of that time, and thus, had many similarities to the Aurora.
It was considered essential by the team that the new engine employed all of the applicable technological advances from a range of technologies aerospace and automotive, included to produce a modern engine within the framework of the regulations.
The initial tests of the engine have shown excellent durability and an anticipated 30hp advantage over its competitors with the performance modelling at the concept phase being within 1% of the power figures recorded during the initial testing of that specification the processes employed by the team are now proven.

Engines undergo an official certification test to determine their power and torque and this can be limited by Grand Am using a number of means, air intake restrictors, for example.
An ideal engine platform for the new car was available in the form of the Nissan Q45 (the all-aluminium, DOHC, 4.5 litre fitted to the Infiniti road car in North America), an engine which MEL uses as the base for the forty engines they prepared and supplied to the single-make Menards Infiniti Pro Series (MIPS).
The engine was developed to produce 450 bhp from 3.5 litres at a fixed cost and the 2003 season saw 19 drivers use it in 12 races with no failures, thus providing a valuable durability history to MEL Competition Technologies.

 Ford 385 engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ford 385 engine family was the American Ford Motor Company's final big block V8 engine design, replacing the Ford MEL engine and gradually superseding the Ford FE engine family.
The engines were sold between 1968 and 1997.
The FE engines, manufactured in Dearborn, continued in production but saw reduced applications and volume as the 385 engine gradually took over in the Ford line up.

Mel pulled up, grunted in response my good morning as I got in the cab, and we headed off in the direction of the train station.
He pulled a defibrillator from his trunk and proceeded to zap Mel several times on the chest, although I had the impression this was the first time the Cop had ever had occasion to use the thing and really wasn't too sure of what he was doing.
Mel was strangely calm and didn't realize I think how bad off he was, even as she picked up a single shoe of Mel's that had fallen off as we lifted him out of the cab.

 Model Engine Builders—Mel Anderson (Spitfire)
Mel grew tired of modeling and his interest shifted to hopping up Model T Fords and motorcycles.

In 1948, three separate approaches to tiny model glow engines were made: by Lud Kading and Johnny Bordbeeck at KandB (resulting in the.020 Infant), by Charlie Brebeck ak Herkimer (the OK Cub.049) and by Mel Anderson.

 Oil Monsters.... - THE H.A.M.B.
The interesting thing about the whole mess is that towards the front of the engine, the crank looks ok, out of spec in the round, but ok. Towards the back of the engine is where the two really bad journals are.
Mel, if your journals are rough, but not out of round you may be able to polish them - a machine shop deal, not too expensive - and put some.001 or.002 over bearings in it.
I think the one required for your engine is in the green envelope.

 A New Keyword Advertising Model: An Interview with Mel Strocen of Jayde Online
The innovative feature of the ISEDN is that members have agreed to use a new “hybrid paid inclusion” advertising model that charges advertisers a flat fee in exchange for displaying their ads across the entire ISEDN for the keywords they purchase, rather than use the standard pay-per-click advertising model.
Mel Strocen (MS): Jayde Online was named after the first website I launched in 1996, Jayde.com, a search engine and web directory which was initially little more than a hobby site.
It may be an overstatement to say that click fraud is rampant on the major PPC engines, but it is significant, possibly comprising as much as 20% of all clicks.

 The Lincoln Forum.Net :: View topic - 64 430CID Overheating
The purpose of the lower block thermostats and divertors was to allow the top of the engine to heat before the bottom as the MEL was not designed with a exhaust gas crossover in the intake manifold to heat the incoming fuel charge.
When the engine reaches full operating temperature neither the thermostats or the diverters perform any function and coolant flows through the heads, intake, and block as though neither were there.
Thus for the subject that started this thread, if the engine is overheating it is highly likely the problem is not the way the diverters were installed or whether they are there at all.
