Well the crank will be off to the machine shop in the morning to get more cut off of it. Wonder if I could build the whole motor in one night

I wish you'd quit pulling your crank and put that engine together!

I view pt.net in darkside and it made it hard as hell to read "pulling your crank" I had to highlight it

I am confident that if I bust my *** I can build the motor in a night only hting I need to check is p to v clearnace for future reference cause this cam isnt going to be big enough I know. I will be doing a heads and cam swap at the very least maybe a turbo if I have the money this summer.

I just got home from work and he slept in the back of his truck in my shop last night.
He looked like hell warmed over. He has one head on. Maybe it will get set in today. All the problems "should" be fixed.
