Re: Ok Boys and Girls it's Storytime

Well the time is coming near to put everything back together. My heads are ready with the exception of Slick Rick waiting on valve springs. My short block is almost done also. When they are ready I'll bring everything home and finish the motor. I made a few changes during the downtime. I freshened the transmission and sent my Converter back to Coan for a freshen and a slight re-stall hopefully just a couple hundred rpm looser. Chris at Bullet cams ground me a new camshaft I'm hoping will work out. It's big one with 117 lobe separation (hence the reason for the stall change). I also bit the bullet and got a Jesel belt drive distributor which has been much needed for years. That burned up some of the money I saved by having Line to Line coat my old pistons instead of ordering new ones. I'll have to rework a few things to use it but at least the distributor will be easier to access now. I'm hoping to get it on the dyno but I'm not sure if I'll have time or not. Maybe next time I post I'll have some new pics to put up.
