All right I’m still plugging away, spent a ton of time working engine stuff over the summer….actually the first year in 10yrs i didn't go to SEMA because i wanted to make some progress, sounds like i missed a good show.
Here are a couple pics showing the fruits of my labor (mostly my cash)…
Front cover on with Oil Pump on the side

Waiting on push rods and Holley HP kit….then we’ll make some hydrocarbons

Dyno run planned for Tues but likely I’m thinking Wednesday regardless I’ll have it back in my garage for final fit tests for the Thanksgiving weekend.
