Thanks, I got fed up witht he prep work, glad I did though, some more parts showed up today for the motor, machine shop did however decide to double their rates so now I'm gonna be on old with the motor until I have the money for the aluminum heads I want, they somehow figure rebuilding my heads and installing the new parts I have for them is worth $800, pretty sure I can get a semi complete set of ebay for that, just another snag to get by that will positively effect the quality of the build, the extra time will be worht it to me, figuring spring 2012 now to complete unless I have a great winter
