Checked pin bores today and a couple more parts came in. Got a call from Black Magic, they've received and are going over the clutch.

Always nice to see your posts and see what you guys are doing.It's nice to see a first class engine build with the best parts. Can't wait for you guys to get out there and go racing again!

Few more parts came in today, timing chain, new timing cover, cam and some gaskets. We also got to filing some rings.

Had a couple things that weren't perfect when it came apart and here is one of them. Mains look a little weird, a stripe on some edges. We've seen this on the previous engines too, I'm going to change the balancer as it's a common denominator. ATI is making a new one suited to us now. We're still getting an education here.

Rings are all filed and worked on intake gaskets today. Going to be busy this weekend so probably won't work on it but next week I'll hopefully get an education on the valve job.

Great to see your thread back up, Todd. Nobody details every aspect of a build like you do. You give an honest account of the things that don't go well and also the good things that happen, too! Thanks for your time and best of luck to you and April in 2021.

Can I ask, what brand of intake gaskets are those?
