I ended up ordering PRC heads and a powerbond pulley from Texas speed, this build has already doubled from my initial estimate so saving a few bucks keeps the wife off my back. ![Icon Lol](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_lol.gif)
I got the engine built up minus heads and installed my racetronics pump and Hotwire kit, that was a pain. I plan on installing the engine tomorrow morning, hopefully all goes smooth. Here's the engine in its current state.

Well it's up and running, I have about 200 miles on it so far. It fired right up and runs pretty strong, I'm loving the torque bump already and it's far from tuned. I'm hoping to be able to tune it next weekend. Thanks to everyone that helped me out here! ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)
Here's a few pics of it all built up and clean again.
