Amazing how fast a week goes by... Current status:
- Short block is in the assembly phase at TSP. I haven't spoken to them today, but I expect it to be done around Thursday, maybe Friday. I dropped off the cam for them to install and degree last Friday.
- Heads are being cut and assembled this week. They will be ready Friday or Monday. I'm going to pick them up along with the intake manifold on Tuesday.
- Clutch should hopefully be here on Monday. The weather in Dallas yesterday and today is slowing down both the clutch and the heads.
- My rockers with the Harland Sharp trunion upgrade arrived yesterday, so I'm ready for the top end assembly. I will have to determine the pushrod length and diameter once I have everything together.
- I found a set of flow matched 42# injectors that I picked up for a good deal, so I'll replace my FAST injectors with those for a little extra headroom.
Per my other thread on plumbing my Accusump, I have a lot of pieces in flight related to that right now. The oil filter mount arrived yesterday and is in Eric's hands to determine the best mounting location. A large order of Russell and Fragola fittings and adapters are on the way as well. So we should be able to knock some of that out before the engine is ready to go in.
If everything continues to go as it has been, and we don't hit any big snags during re-assembly, I feel a lot better about getting it together for my March events. Next week will be the big thrash, then I'll have at least a week to break it in and tune. Woo hoo!
