Finally time for a tin work. Starting to come together and look like a car again.

Very nice on the adjustable watts!
Hate to hear about the pistons, though. Pin height too high, or too low?

Pin height was too high by .125 so the piston was too low in the block and we did not want to change rods.

It's seriously starting to look like a race car.

You could always line bore the crank up
That's what happened to my Pontiac
then all you need to do is:
Find the shortest timing chain ever
cut the dizzy so it will go all the way down in the block
cut the starter so it will align with the flywheel

Just being a smartass... I hate when things are
off by just a little

Cool build.. can't wait to see it finished
