Progress is being made. Though slowly, progress is happening. My buddy is helping with the engine. He’s been a blessing and I am glad he has been involved. He called with news the heads arrived the other day. Pistons and rings are being fitted at the machine shop. The machine shop is doing pretty much all the work. Which is fine with me. Just glad we were able to salvage the 400. I’m no machinist but I understand some stuff. They ended up boring the block .040 over. They tried thirty over and one cylinder didn’t clean up well. They went to forty over and was relieved with the results. It feels awkward not doing the assembly considering how many in-line sixes we put together for the race car.

All in all things are progressing. The weather turned to crap once I got started messing with it. But it looks like this week is going to be warmer which I hope to take advantage of. Promise I’ll get some pics posted up. Take care
