Yup things finally coming together , estimated 2 weeks till they get it done , estimated cost 1100 bux :banghead:

They better do an A 1 job. Im hoping a few beers will take care of that cost and hopefully when i first fire her up ill have totally forgotten about it.

Well the real killer was the Align Bore of the Main Caps

350 bux just for that

Then bore and torque plate hone was like 200 bux

Balance Rotating Assembly Was 175-200 bux

Square Deck Block was like 125

Drill Steam Holes In My Heads was 40

Then there was something else i cant think of it off the top of the top of my head
