I got my heads back from HAM (thanks Len) after taking advantage of one of Jake's and Len's "radio specials". Looks like he did a really nice job. Sorry I didn't take any photos before I started working on the valve train.
Setting up the rockers and pushrods is taking quite a bit of time. I can't wait to get this thing together!
Full Version: Got my heads back the other day!
Looking good Bill, keep up the nice work.

Hi Bill,
Is your "neighbor" feline helping with the engine assembly?
Your engine is making mine look like it came out of the Valdez!
Great Job!

Are you using swivel feet adjusters?
Greg: No cat hair in the engine. He just sleeps over in the corner on his blanket.
Stratplayer: Yes I bought the swivel feet adjusters and the 1.7 rockers from Jake. Had to add some shims under the rockers to get the geometry where I wanted it.
Dan: I'm hoping with this engine the new yellow will be faster than the old mulit-tone orange and primer!

Great! I suppose that you have read my extensive article on the valve train geometry subject???
Len IS the man!
