Gettin My Feet Wet - 383

I used the original fuel pump bolts on my mechanical fuel pump, work just fine.. but if you're going electric, you can't use the stock bolts for the block off plate anyway.. they're to long I would think?

The block didn't come with a fuel pump or bolts for one so I ordered them with the block off plate. These are shorter than the stock bolts for the mechanical fuel pump. I will post an exact measurement once they come in.

It seems there was some miscommunication with myself and the machinist (more so my fault) and he has already lined honed the block using the stock main bolts. I ordered ARP main bolts last night just to be safe. These will be returned. i will do better with the communication. :oops:

Speaking of communication, i contacted Comp Cams via web and i am awaiting a response from them with recommendations. From the advice of the forums here and what I have found, I like the SK21-224-4 kit which includes cam, lifters, and timing set. My machinist is getting in contact with Bullet.
