Got quite a lot accomplished today despite the phone ringing off the hook.
All the pistons cleaned up and hung back on the rods
Back in their holes
Even though we degreed the cam the first time still have to make sure it's in right and nothing changed 
Getting buttoned up 
Time for the heads 
We did change the springs to get a little better control of the valves this time around 
Added bonus, Jeff Patterson came by in the evening to work on his F.A.S.T. motor. He had a minor set back on piston issues but we did manage to get a templet made for his crank scrapper
Still waiting to run into Bondo again out there

This crank is actually std/std and has 180 oiling on the mains.
The 10/10 crank I bought I'm saving for the other 440 block for Gina's car 
And yes, it balanced beautifully

Yes the skirts are a little scuffed (Mostly just coating wear}and Yes it will be making a pull or 2 on the pump to insure no issues prior to being put back in the blue beast.

I'm curious can you tell me what's done to the oiling system that you need the 3/8" tube crossing over in the lifter valley?
Its a great conversation piece....
I wondered the same thing.
