New hammer what will it run?

No if I had more time I would have done the correction, unshroulded the valves and flowed the intake.I keep telling my self we are bracket racers not heads up.

Gotcha that's one way to look at it. The other is the stability from the correction is good insurance for us lower budget bracket guys. .040" seems like a lot of lift to give up. But I get it when you are on a time line ya gotta get er done. Time to get it down the track. Congrats on having it completed and ran on the dyno.
