D-day (dyno day) is the 3rd week of June. I want it buttoned up tomorrow.... 8155623-IMG_20140525_183939_929.jpg (124 downloads) Jim

Only new parts are pistons and rod bearings... it's a bit overkill for an 11:1 pump gas motor but hey, use what you got GRP aluminum rods, Bryant Billet crank, hell-fire rings, coated Clevite bearings. Compression drop was from 15:1 to 11:1. Big time fuel downgrade. Was VP C-16, now 93 pump.

Since you made a big change in compression, did you change the cam as well? Yes, I put a little smaller cam in it too. It's actually the first cam I had in this motor. It's .690/.660 lift and 272/282 @ .050. Cam I took out was .750/.730 and 281/288 @ .050. Both cams are 112 lobe separation. Speaking of cams, I got that in today and got the oil pan on. I need a new harmonic balancer before I put the heads on. I can't see the timing marks on mine anymore, it's too corroded to see the markings on it. Once I have that I want to double check where the cam is at and check TDC marks on the balancer. Jim
