I finished a bracket for the rear today (not sure if it will work or not), did a little grinding on the collar for the trans. and finished some real "boring" block work. Had so much fun we may do it again tomorrow. Home watching drag racing YIPPEE!

No, I'm going to drill and tap the case under the fill plug to line up with the counter shaft.

Tapped holes for all the pipe plugs today and did some more grinding and chamfering on the block.

I can only say we go to great lengths to control oil leaks in the engine, and 16 lifter bores is definitely one of the places were looking to control.
