5.9L Magnum build with questions
Well, after talking to IMM I’m going to have my cam degreed. I’ve never done it to the engines I’ve assembled in the past, but it’s for the best and I’m going to have it done to this engine. So, tomorrow I’ll take it back to the machine shop so they can do it. It’s cheaper for them to do it then it is for me to buy the tools and I doubt I’ll do it in the future. Plus some things are best left to the professionals. So I made a stand out of left over Uni strut so I don’t crush the oil pan transporting it.
I also scored a great deal on some Dougs headers today. I’ll sand blast them and paint them with tungsten Cerakote. I’m guessing it will hold up much better than whatever Dougs uses.
