Now we need two more numbers, HP and TQ good job looks like you did a top notch job

 

hehe I've been close for a very long time -- just waiting on parts again

On a bright note, I did have the mig hot today

That engine looks clean enough to go in rig bro -- can't wait to hear all the stories of the 122 :thumbs:

 

I think somebody must be busy today.

 

Maybe grippy's wife took his computer and camera away!!!! Now get that damn truck together.

 

Nah I dont think BlownChevy would do that to him. lol j.k

 

 

grippy, just got confirmation on an LS6 block... and other very nice goodies. I can only match your documentation with all of your support equipment... and personnel . I'm sure Rex will probably be up for a more relaxed project

 

i fell out of the chair reading that.

 

here are some pics that slipped through the cracks:

ARP bolts are excellent for cam/cam retainer (Rex really likes them here), Hex Adjust Comp single roller timing chain:




Here is a pic of the second ring which Rex spec'd as a Napier


some of you may remember I kinked the stock semi-hard fuel line and was worried it would pose a problem in the future. Well, I converted my stock hard fuel line to a -6 AN setup and in the process cut open the stock line.
Bottom line, I wouldn't worry about it, the semi-hard line seems to be pliable enough not to show any stress discoloration (think thick nylon line) as it's very thin. (I had to be sure though, didn't want any gremlins to surface later)
For those that want to convert to a -6 setup I took pics of what I did, enjoy:
