finaly got a little time, so i rolled the car outside and left it running for an hour, going to heat cycle it a few more times then off to the dyno.

This was after 50 mins or so. this new JPM cam seams very responsive, and i have noticed the valve train is a lot quieter..  just have to see if it provides us with more hp.

You can hear theres a headder leak on one joint to sort out, but all good

heads were at a constant 75oC and the oil was at 90oC.

Oil Preshure when cold
Idle 120 psi 5000 rpm 140 psi

Oil Preshure when hot (90)
Idle 40psi anything off idle 120 psi.  

Happy with that.
