Next step for me is setting up my valve train geometry. I searched the web and the World and now I have enough information to know that I need more information. I see a few references to an article Jake had on his now extinct forums. The Facebook page is pretty vast. Can someone point me to this article? I think that's my first step toward comming up with more intelegent questions.

FYI: I'm building a 2056 based on a late case.
I have Jake's 9550 cam installed
I have swivel feet adjusters mounted on 1.7 rockers with solid spacers
I am using SS valves and chromoloy push rods
I installed 8x10 rocker studs
I have used .065" of shim on the cylinders with no head gasket

Thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)
