Quadman and myself will be handling this project.

Block is at the machine shop and these parts will be going there as well.

The entire assembly including the flywheel and clutch assembly will be balanced.

To be continued.

I know that feeling... We remodeled our house and that is a big part of the reason my car is not back together yet!

Looks great man...

I have a set of boxed up Diamond pistons awaiting install also. They certainly make a nice piece!

Enjoy and good luck brother!
