Got some parts today, I'll post some pictures as we get them out. washed the block today and got setup for honing, measuring clearances for piston pins in the rods and pistons. Also mesured lifters and bores. Got some pictures today at least (I'll try to be better about that). Back at it tomorrow!

Autumn and my son in law took the car to a friend today so we could get a little help replacing the rear firewall since the one I built was slightly less than ideal haha.

We ran out this morning to peek at the new firewall and it's coming along nicely. made a little headway today checking stuff, cleaning parts and decking the block. Just ordered parts we need for this week, I feel some next day shipments are on the horizon.

Had an abbreviated day today but still managed to get the block washed and all the rings filed. Cam came in today and lots of parts showing up tomorrow.
