Looks Nice, I hope to have mine that far along real soon.





Excuse me for being ignorant but what are the extra holes in the oil pan rail for?
Is it the same down the right side pan rail also?

WOW. That is way too nice to get dirty. Just put it in the Living room so you can look at it everyday.

Looks like a 10 minute job with a carbide burr and then hit with a sanding roll. Good as new.

Ok, Ran into a little set back.I would just like to ask how many of you have had to deal with in a R3 or Ritter block. The aera im pointing to has not been michined to a large enough radius in order for the crank to clear. Or in my case will not even set down on the bearing surface.All input is welcome. Rick I think you may have all the answers I may need.



Not to worry,I had the same problem with my R3. As John already stated,15 minutes with a die grinder you should be okay. The only PITA is that if you already scrubbed the block you are going to have to do it all over again. Metal shavings from a die grinder seem to find their way everywhere.

Don't feel to bad. I had my Keith Black 572 cleaned and ready to assemble and found out I had about 4 hours of grinding to do for pushrod clearance on the block.
