Not dead yet, LOL. Alot has happened with the build. I had MAJOR issues with the stock "redone" connecting rods I originally purchased. This neccitated me buy new rods (Scat 7/16 cap bolt I-beams) and rebalancing the whole assembly again. Unfortunatly, I had to let this stuff sit as I was busy with other stuff.
I have been crazy busy in the shop, I tubbed another car this winter and have 3 other engine builds going on. But I finally am getting some of this done. I just finished the Shortblock this past weekend, so that is a step in the right direction. I have the heads back from the machine shop a second time and have everything as far as I know to assemble those.
I know its been awhile, but if your still interested, stay tuned....
