Way to go! Good luck tonight. You have about 9 million people on the edge of their seats awaiting info, stories, and videos. You are doing what alot of us only wish they could do.

cmotorsports found a few things they didn't like and are making it right. sam spec'd out those pistons and they were eating up the 2nd rings prety fast. sam has a former JE expert working there now and together they came up with some new piston specs that we are going to try. i also had a head gasket that was blown out(he sent me pics), i didn't know it was blown. he is fixing that up. the finish was coming off my lifters so he found a better set of those.

he also welded in a new WG for me and a -10 fitting for my return line in the oil pan.

the last thing was the heads, he said one of the valves was leaking a little, i dont have money for killer heads right now so he just did a basic clean up job on them. we talked about heads and it looks like over the winter some all pro's with the orings will be going on. i might have some problems keeping the heads down with big power till i get those units on. from what i am reading the big power guys are changing their head gaskets prety regulurly.
and the cryo treatment of the input shaft to the tranny post #30
