Excellent results with refinishing the motor! Looks beautiful! :cheer:

All the painstaking work and effort toward removing the old finish, plus thorough prep work and cleaning, has really paid off.

Good Fortune! :)

well i didnt get any input on this before so i will try 1 more time i need to figure out how to get rid of this box but not sure how to rewire so everything will work. people say they use trailer plugs to take them of and on at diff. tracks so i am wondering if i just pull it off every thing would be fine ?? it looks like the only thing that it runs is the clutch. is there anyone that knows about these things.

Just mailed it Priority USPS. Probably see it on Saturday I would expect.

Put 260 shims on the intake side and 250's on the exhaust to start with. Adjust from there.

Intakes are 1.479" installed height.
Exhausts are 1.485" installed height.

Intake boots are sealed so you don't need to do that. You may want to pull it back apart when you do the center idler.

The nubs in the valve cover where the rubbing block was have to go too.
