I sent the head off to a local machine shop and had it barely shaved, and new seals put in, and 60 lb. valve springs. Im using A-1 headstuds, and bottom tapped the block.

I decided to go with SDX 5x .012 injectors. I have heard allot of good things about them, so hopefully they were great.

I got a stock plate off a buddy and decided to grind it into a #100. Other Mods I plan to do yet are a 4GSK springs, and 16 or 17 degrees timing. Anyone got any estimates what I would be making at the wheels?

Well I finished painting the frame with P.O.R.-15 and top coated it with some eastwood chassis black. Also got the rear shocks in, and got the exhaust back in.
