:jumpie  :jumpie  I picked up my long block from my builder. I didn't have time to build it myself. After reading about  KC's tread I think it was a good idea. This is the most $$ I've spent on an engine.

KC you can help now the hard part is finished. Think When it broke it would even be your falt. Really I feel for you.  :guns  :guns  I thought I'd take a better picture of the timing chain for you before I put the cover on tonight. That way I can see where the key is a TDC.

The only other thing I've seen to check clearance bolt the head on with a lump of modeling clay in the chamber and rotate the engine . remove the head slice the clay and measure the thickness of what is left on the piston. A lot of work but a sure thing.

Claying the valves is one way to measure or get soft valve springs and a dial indicator.
I think after I take about 10 degrees of advanced cam timing out of my motor I'll be in a little better shape. I'm just pissed because of the lake and river trips I've missed because of my own stupidity. Probably saved enough in gas money that it pays for all the parts I've bought :rotflmao

We'll give you some time to vent.  :fight  :fight But then it's time to get to work cause I'd like to run along side that blue beast. Nothings better than the sound of cutting glassy water early morning.
