won't be early...looks like I'll prolly roll in around 11-12.

Still need to do alignment and tighten a few things but she's almost done...

won't be anything spectacular anyhow...I'm only going to get a feel for it and may start applying the coals if everything works out....

Sorry to hear that Fireball.

You'll get it running perfect and forget about these hurdles in no time.

Thanks for the info.

I thought so, I am a little surprised to see that you stuck with the Cathedral Port heads on this new build.

I guess you figured they are solid heads and you are forcing the air in anyway?

I am curious to see how they work out for you.
I have CP ETP's myself and am thinking about upgrading to one of Cary's newer square port designs?
But maybe not now?
I guess I can weld on the bosses for a fee.

Plus re-purchasing the Jesel valve train is a bundle of cash too.

Good luck with it.

Sorry to hear all that Fireball. I seen the first pass and to say it didnt look pretty was a understatement. Seen the car go down through looked like a easy pass till about 500ft out then started pulling left and lots and LOTS and LOTSSS of smoke from the engine area and that was it. Did it hurt the motor again?
