400 low buck dont give a

I got the retainers in at the beginning on the last week. they are for a 2" installed height so I had to shim the springs to get to the stock height. the heads are done and waiting fro me to get more time to get back to putting the pistons in the block.

I guess it's been too long since I read through the post; for some reason I thought the shortblock was already together--in any case, I'm just as impatient as duster lol
