HP 57's here..

I cant put the twins on until I have a motor in the engine bay :cuss: Everything else is ready, and the paint will go on once everything is installed.

The machine shop should be finished surfacing the heads and have the valve job's on your heads completed on Monday. Assembly of the engine should be completed by end of next week.

Here is the scratch why the heads had to be surfaced. It is hard to tell by the picture but the scratch is pretty deep. You can easily run your fingernail over it and feel just how deep it was. There were a couple more light scratches on both heads after further inspection, but this was the worst...

Talk to you soon... Stan

:sleeping: Your pen did that:bash:
You think I did that moving the heads around? Would the resurfacing change the compression, or is it to minor to make a difference?

See you guys next week.... I want some Marisco's :rockon:

[Greg@RET]

Stan said the motor will be done this week. So I would say it will be running a week after that.

 

[danny03cobra]

i am almost done with mine dude, just need to install the down pipe and figure out the vacuum lines. i also need to figure out how this manual boost controller goes on.

 

[TRBO VNM]

[FordFanStan]

Had to clearance the new block early this morning for the rod bolts, (due to the length of the rod and stroke of the crank in your build)...

Heads arrived today and Dante should have them assembled by the end of the day... Stan

 

[Greg@RET]

Thanks for the update :beer: Glad you guys are finding all these little things that could be a problem later down the line.
