wow, no expence spared on this build. looking good!!!
i ran grp rods last year and will be again this year, i had to touch up the block as well, and on a few of the rod bolts i was still real close, so i gave them a little bevled edge to make the swing. i also used the coated bearings, and when i took them out. wow, what a nice set up.

makes me want to start working on mine. lol
