Hughes whiplash cam is ordered and on BACKORDER lol

the Ebay Airgap Dual plane intake is here waiting for installation ( nice piece actually)

the Speedmaster heads are ordered and in the "build to order stage"

You got the lifters too? Don't cheap out on those, Hughes has few choices on their site.

did the piston flip/swap method, as a ol skool racer trick = i always wanted to try that lol)

I hope you have the rods facing the correct direction, because they are directional. I'm sure you did.
