Still moving forward little by little. Decided to do cam bearings but having an issue with the clocking of the oil holes in the first bearing. Just need verification. I'll get that figured out soon.

Block clean as a whistle. Started to prime and paint. All valves lapped and waiting for pac springs to arrive. Going with the Elgin cam mentioned earlier. It'll be here soon. Got a 320 grit 4.0" flex hone to match with new rings. Think the consensus is to gap both first and second ring right at .032?

I'll get some pics real soon. It's looking good.
