The roller rockers, pushrods and all the items to complete the heads should be showing up anytime along with the new MSD HEI distributor, Cloys double roller timing chain and starter... They are going to go through the 3 deuces to make sure we don't have any issues when we fire it... I am hoping to have the engine completed...

I can't wait to film it on the Dyno...
Sweet looking bullet, Dan. Bet that engine color set Patterson's hair on fire, though. His cars were fast as all get out but drenched in beige inside and out as I recall.
Looking forward to the dyno numbers!
