UPDATE: After 4 months, the short block was torn down, the crank and rods have been balanced, a new set of Forged Kieth Black Pistons are nestled nicely in the cylinder walls, everthing is held together with new ARP bolts. A nitraded COMP Cams Xtreme Energy Hi-Lift Cam and Lifter Kits is in place (525 lift) , with a billet double roller chain. The heads have been ported, a COMP Cams Pro Magnum Shaft Mount Roller Rocker Arms are waiting to be bolted up
There is finally Light (and a huge bill) at the end of the tunnel!
