Update on future build

Nah, I never knew who else to check for besides those two companies

Ok, so I cancelled my order at Full Throttle. Good news is that a member here locally had a new one in box so I'm no longer searching for a front cover. I just ordered the bolt kit and some extra gaskets. I'll keep you all posted on this progress. Thanks for tuning in

We had to do some grinding on some of the cam lobes due to some of the adjacent lobes interfering with the lifters

[Steve Wood]

Not sure I have heard of that problem

[phil_long]

I should've taken photos. When the lifter is rolling on the cam, the adjacent lobe comes too close to the lifter, and in some cases, it hits. Bison did warn me of checking clearances though, so it was expected. 

[phil_long]

it's just grinding down some of the sidewall of the lobes.

And we're at the point of measuring for the pushrods. Just thought I'd add that to this thread since it's been so long since I've posted. I hope everything is going great with everyone on here! I'm nearing the finish line

[Steve Wood]

well hurry up and cross that finish line!

[phil_long]

I agree. This has been drug out due to the lead time on everything I've purchased. 

[phil_long]

Ok, we degreed the cam and everything looks good!! Front cover and heads next! I'm getting excited gentlemen!! 

[Steve Wood]

You should be!  Getting close!

[phil_long]

I have a lot more but I will leave it here for now

[phil_long]

We have officially measured for the pushrods. Ordering those up and installing as soon as we get them. This process wouldn't have taken so long had I not waited forever for the heads.

Also, any ideas on why my blower motor has constant voltage to it? I literally unplugged it because it wouldn't turn off...even when the car is off. I tested the voltage and it's on full blast all the time. I do have the digital climate control, and I installed that expensive heater blower resistor for the digital climate years ago. I just wanted to address this while the motor was out. Any ideas?

[Steve Wood]

Sounds pretty normal for the heads
