I also think that blueprinting these old cases is not a bad idea...I am sure Jake would deck the case anyways...and you could simply take care of the issue at that time.

Rich is correct. We spend quite a bit of time prepping these old cases, especially for race engine. The truth is, though, that even stock powerplant cases need some attention in most instances. Damn near every case I deck has sagging spigots. Occasionally I see a W case that isn't. The spigots generally sag in the middle, where the two are closest to each other. Head leaks and unstable jugs that aren't normal to the crank are the result.

Martman, Decking your case will kill two birds with one stone. I mean, no one likes sagging spigots and unstable jugs! Right?

That would be sagging jugs, and leaky spigots.
