This picture was taken when the engine was first disassembled after I bought it. It is showing the difference between the 48x38 that were in it and stock valves -- we were debating having Jeff do his 52x42 ? mods to the heads but eventually decided against it--- there were some modifications done before reassembly

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Fired it up to play with the tuning and heard a death rattle at start up. It went away as soon as the oil pressure came up, BUT, I was already reaching over to shut it off ----- when you hear the rattle, it is time disassemble --- Well with all the BS with the fuel system and other chit I guess I should of expected this...
I'm putting the bitch in the garage and covering it up with crap for a few weeks,

I hope it's nothing serious. A couple of weeks off sounds like a plan

Yesterday 80's here, so left car on the trailer when we got home after 800 miles and 16 hours of driving and it is freaking raining thes morning -- go figure --
This morning getting ready to pull it off the trailer in the rain
These small ass seats will have to go -- talk about a wedgie when I'm trying to set in there
dash --- It's not to bad considering it has set for a long time -- just needs a boost gauge LOL
